Surgery
Our clinic maintains a close partnership with skilled orthopedic surgeons. This collaboration ensures comprehensive care for complex cases of heel pain.
When is Surgery Recommended for Foot and Ankle Conditions?
In cases where conservative treatments have not yielded satisfactory results or for severe structural abnormalities and chronic conditions, surgery may be recommended. Conditions such as severe plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendon ruptures, heel spurs, or deformities might necessitate surgical intervention for resolution. However, decisions regarding surgery are typically made after an evaluation and referral to orthopedic surgeons or specialists.
Orthopedic Referral and Collaboration
Our clinic maintains a collaborative relationship with skilled orthopedic surgeons who specialise in foot and ankle procedures. Upon assessment and diagnosis in our clinic, if surgery is deemed a potential course of action, our team works closely with these specialists to facilitate a seamless referral process.
Types of Foot and Ankle Surgeries
Orthopedic surgeons perform a range of specialised procedures tailored to specific foot and ankle conditions. These may include plantar fascia release for severe plantar fasciitis cases or surgical repair for Achilles tendon ruptures. The surgeries are carried out in hospital settings by these specialised surgeons
Post-Surgery Care and Rehabilitation
Following surgery, patients receive post-operative care and rehabilitation. While our clinic does not conduct surgical procedures, our team remains involved in the comprehensive care continuum. We assist in coordinating post-surgery rehabilitation programs, including physical therapy and guidance for proper recovery, working in tandem with the orthopedic surgeons to ensure optimal outcomes for our patients.
By maintaining a collaborative relationship with esteemed orthopedic surgeons, our clinic strives to provide holistic care for our patients, from diagnosis and referral to post-surgical rehabilitation. Our goal is to ensure a smooth transition throughout the treatment journey, promoting comprehensive care and optimal recovery for individuals with foot and ankle conditions.
