Bunion Surgery Before & After Pictures
The state-of-the-art bunion correction techniques our surgeons helped develop enable most of our patients to immediately bear weight on their foot after surgery. Pain control is a crucial component of our approach, and most patients report little to no need for pain medications.
Our bunion specialists are trained in all 44 variations of bunion surgery and have the highest success rates in the nation. Their experience enables them to select the most suitable surgery for each patient. One type of surgery is NEVER right for everyone. Period.
