Ankle Replacement Surgery

A great option for arthritis in the ankle. Usually patients with arthritis are thinking about an ankle fusion or a replacement.

Achilles Tendonitis

Acute inflammation of the achilles tendon. Pain is usually on the back of the heel or ankle.

Achilles Tendonosis

Chronic injury to the achilles tendon. This results in thickening of the tendon around the insertion.

Achilles Tendon Rupture

Basketball and soccer injuries are the most common reason to rupture the achilles. Can happen during any running or jumping activity.
