Foot and Ankle Surgery
Pain, deformity or injury to the foot or ankle can be frustrating, debilitating and challenging to treat. Our three fellowship-trained orthopaedic foot & ankle surgeons provide a breadth and depth of knowledge and experience that rivals any in the region, and will help you get back on your feet.
Our Foot & Ankle team: Ronald Resnick, MD, Christopher Gentchos, MD, and Kristen Stupay, MD are experts in all aspects of foot and ankle surgery, including the repair of ankle and foot fractures, ligament and tendon injuries, ankle and foot arthritis, diabetic foot infections and neuromuscular reconstructions, neuromas, bunions and hammertoes, in addition to ankle replacements, minimally invasive surgical techniques, and ankle arthroscopy.
Although surgery is one option for treatment, excellent care of the ankle and foot doesn’t begin (or end!) in the operating room, and conservative treatments such as shoe modifications, orthotics, physical therapy, medications and bracing are essential to wholistic and successful foot and ankle care. Our surgeons are well-versed in conservative care and will make sure to maximize your treatment and recovery by including these strategies in your treatment plan.
