From more chronic conditions like Achilles tendonitis, or an acute injury, like an Achilles tendon rupture, we use regenerative medicine and minimally invasive surgery to repair and restore the injured area.

We will often use a cortisone injection for arthritis pain first, because if the area responds well to cortisone, then we know PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) can be effective in providing long-term relief.

This is a minimally-invasive approach to evaluate and repair various causes of pain in the ankle joint. We use a small camera to navigate through the joint and clean out the debris or scar tissue causing pain.

So you’re jumping on the trampoline with your kids, land on your ankle the wrong way, and ouch! We will evaluate the injury, and create a customized treatment plan that’s just right for you. Depending on the location and severity, surgery may be needed. Or, a cast/brace may be used along with supportive regenerative medicine therapies to allow the injury to heal.

We offer both minimally invasive and open surgical procedures for conditions like bunions, hammer toes, and fractures, ensuring you receive the best treatment option based on your individual needs and level of severity.

We also use the arthroscopy approach to evaluate and treat OCD lesions (osteochondral defects) in the ankle resulting from cartilage injury that perhaps has previously occurred and not healed properly.

Flat Foot Syndrome occurs when chronic degeneration of the tendon causes the arch in the foot to fall, often leading to swelling and pain. We use a comprehensive approach to treat this condition. Treatment options range from conservative measures like using a walking boot, custom AFO brace, and orthotics, to more advanced options like regenerative medicine.

Heel pain is often caused by plantar fasciitis, or sometimes can be a result of Achilles tendonitis. Regenerative medicine can reduce inflammation and relieve pain.

Peripheral neuropathy, nerve injury, or nerve entrapment can cause burning, tingling, numbness, and pain in the feet, making daily tasks impossible. With nerve decompression surgery, we can relieve the pressure, provide relief and restore function.

We use both traditional and regenerative therapies to expedite recovery from sprains and strains. With advanced therapies we can often decrease recovery time.

Stress fractures, or small breaks in the bone, are a common overuse injury in athletes. Orthotics, PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) are all effective treatment options.

PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy is a minimally-invasive approach that works to repair tendon tears by using the patient’s own blood to stimulate growth at the site of damage, and promote rapid healing.

Although regenerative medicine can often be used to avoid surgery, these therapies can be very helpful in jumpstarting the healing process and reducing scar tissue formation, when surgery is needed.

Reconstructive surgery is often needed for Cavus Foot (high-arched foot), and Flat Foot Syndrome (fallen arches), as well as ligament repair to restore ankle stability when chronic injuries have occurred.

Unlike fusion surgery, which limits motion, this surgery is a great option for patients with advanced arthritis. The implant replaces damaged bone and cartilage, relieving pain and preserving full ankle motion.

We use the INFINITY™ Total Ankle Replacement System with the PROPHECY™ Preoperative Navigation System because it allows us to tailor surgery to each individual patient. By using the patient’s CT scan, the system creates a model of their unique anatomy and simulates the surgery, allowing for precision and customization.

For patients with tarsal tunnel syndrome, who experience chronic burning, numbness, and tingling pain in the foot and ankle- we can provide relief with a surgical nerve decompression procedure.
