Reconstructive Foot & Ankle Surgery

Garnet Health Offers Reconstructive Foot & Ankle Surgery 

Foot and ankle pain shouldn’t hold you back. You’ve tried physical therapy and pain medications for persistent pain in your foot or ankle, yet you’re still not getting the relief you need. Your orthopedic specialist may determine that reconstructive foot and/or ankle surgery is the best way for you to regain full comfort and mobility. 

This surgery consists of complex repair(s) that may be necessary to regain function or stability, reduce pain and/or prevent further deformity or disease. Many conditions may necessitate surgery of the foot and/or ankle; these include injury or trauma, overuse, disease and abnormalities present from birth. Depending on your symptoms and diagnosis, reconstructive surgery may require any of the following: 

• Tendon repair/transfer
• Skin or soft tissue repair
• Fusion of bone
• Joint implantation
• Bone grafting
• Tumor excision and/or the osteotomy of bone

The orthopedic doctors at Garnet Health provide expert diagnoses, proven treatments and aftercare for all types of foot and ankle reconstructive surgery. We will work with you to identify treatment options tailored specifically to your needs. This includes specialized outpatient rehabilitation care, including a comprehensive range of high-quality services and state-of-the-art rehabilitation equipment.
