It’s The Summer! Why Suffer With Ugly, Painful Feet?!
Bunions! When the great toe points towards the other toes. As we have all seen (especially at the pool!), it can be disfiguring and painful. When caught early, the pain and deformity can be remedied with a change of shoe or pads. Certain severe cases will require surgery. In years past, this would have involved extensive incision, scarring, and immobilization. Utilizing new technology, mini incisions and mini plates and screws have minimized the trauma from these surgeries. As Director of our foot and ankle division, I am constantly striving to offer the latest in advances for this and other conditions.

Here are some pics of before and after from very recent surgeries. You may not become a foot model, but going barefoot will be less traumatic!
