Foot & Ankle Surgery

Conditions Treated

While it may seem that your foot isn’t much of an art, it houses 26 bones, 33 joints, and various ligaments, tendons, muscles, and ligaments, making it one of the most complex structures in your body. The huge workload that your feet and ankles have to carry every day often makes them susceptible to injuries. Any sort of pain or immobility of the feet, ankles, or legs can make it impossible for anyone to function properly. Simple tasks like walking down the block or going upstairs can become unbearable.
