Foot and Ankle

 

The foot doctors of CPOSM can help analyze the pain surrounding foot and ankle injuries. 

The foot and ankle are highly specialized structures that are integral to human locomotion.  The combination of mobile and stable joints  allows us to adapt to many surfaces including the ground, the grass, the stage and the court. The complex interaction of muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves and bones of the foot and ankle cannot be evaluated in isolation. Locomotion is the coordinated integration of structures above and below the ankle. As Orthopaedic surgeons with fellowship training in foot and ankle pathology, we at CPOSM are effectively able to treat both common and rarely encountered problems with a strong foundation of comprehensive musculoskeletal medicine. We specialize in ligament tears, tendon ruptures and tendinitis, cartilage injury and arthritis. We are experienced in all facets of arthroscopic foot and ankle surgery and have incorporated the use of platelet rich plasma in the treatment of applicable bone and soft tissue problems.

For general information on common foot and ankle conditions, please see the patient education section of the American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society website  (aofas.org).
