Foot Surgery In Waxahachie

Our expert podiatrists are also highly experienced in surgeries for the feet. We have performed surgeries for the following foot conditions:

• Bunions– You may need bunion surgery if you have severe pain in shoes that is not releived with conservative treatments. The goal of bunion surgery is to relieve pain, remove the “bump”, and straighten the big toe. There are several different surgical procedures that are used to correct bunions. The type of surgical procedure performed depends on the severity of the bunion and your activity level. Your bunion surgery might be performed in the office or the hospital outpatient facility. 
• Bone spurs– Bone spurs can usually be removed through small incisions, depending on the location of the spur. Spurs located in the ankle are normally removed using arthroscopic surgery through 2 small incisions.
• Diabetic foot care– Surgery is sometimes required to help heal a diabetic foot ulcer. Wound grafts can be beneficial in healing these wounds in a timely manner.
• Flat feet– The correction of flat feet can be a relatively simple procedure or may require a more complex reconstructive surgery at the hospital outpatient facility.
• Feet fractures–Breaks in the bone may need to be realigned. This is normally done on an outpatient basis and may involve screws or plates to realign the fracture.
• Hammertoes–Curled toes can be straightened in the office or a day surgery at the hospital.
• Heel spur– A spur on the back or bottom of the heel can be removed if painful. This is normally done on an outpatient basis day surgery.
• Toenail fungus–A relatively easy procedure to remove the nail permanently or to allow the nail to regrow without fungus.
