Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery. Traditionally bunion surgery required a big incision spanning the great toe joint which leaves big post surgical scar and often limits the big toe joint movement. Minimally invasive bunion surgery enables faster recovery from leaving little to no scar and preserving the joint range of motion. The construct of the screw fixation is strong and stable that patients can get back to their feet right away in hard sole shoe with little to no pain.

Grateful to share that I’ve started a new chapter at Massachusetts General Hospital, joining the Foot & Ankle Service in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery.

It’s a true privilege to be part of such a historic institution, and I’m thankful for all the mentors, colleagues, friends, and family who’ve supported me along the way.

Looking forward to learning, growing, and doing my best to care for the patients and community here in Boston.

It was an absolute pleasure treating you, Alejandra Guzmán . Wishing you all the best with the rest of your U.S. tour—finish strong and keep rocking the stage like only you can!

While numerous bunion procedures are available in the market, not all yield the optimal results. Dr. Cho excels in the latest minimally invasive bunion surgery, recognized for its consistent and robust outcomes, with minimal to no scarring being a standard feature.
