Mission Statement

Hello and welcome.
The purpose of this blog is to discuss cosmetic foot surgery from a foot and ankle surgeon's perspective. In addition, it should be a source to demystify myths behind surgical procedures of the foot. Patient information and links will be readily available.

Understand, the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeon's official policy is not to endorse cosmetic foot surgery. In order to uphold these policies, I would like to state that I perform foot surgery with cosmetic techniques and not foot surgery. This means that there has to be either pain, deformity or dysfunction in order to be operated on. Conservative therapy must also be attempted and have failed in order to qualify for foot surgery. With the aforementioned disclaimer in mind, my goal is to provide a cosmetic result with minimal scarring and minimal pain.
My advanced training and desire to remain an expert in my field allows me to accomplish these goals. My techniques are innovative. The scars are hidden. Pain is aggressively managed. When all are brought together, a positive experience is the result.
