Inside the OR today 👣
Dr. Prachi Patel performed a peroneal tendon repair with stabilization to restore strength, function, and ankle stability. These tendons play a critical role in supporting the foot and ankle, especially during walking, running, and athletic activity.
Chronic ankle pain, tendon tears, and instability can significantly impact mobility and surgical intervention can help patients return to the activities they love with confidence.
Excellent work by Dr. Patel and the surgical team in delivering precise, patient-focused care every step of the way. 💪

Today’s case: Morton’s neuroma excision by Dr. Prachi Patel 👣

A neuroma is a thickened, irritated nerve most commonly found between the toes — often causing:
• Burning pain
• Tingling or numbness
• The feeling of “walking on a pebble”
• Pain that worsens in shoes

When conservative treatments fail, surgical excision can provide lasting relief and help patients return to normal activity comfortably.

This specimen was removed today during surgery after chronic nerve pain significantly affected the patient’s daily life.

Early diagnosis and treatment can make a major difference in long-term nerve pain and function.

“Sometimes the problem isn’t just the bunion… it’s the entire forefoot structure. 👣
Metatarsus adductus can increase forefoot crowding and contribute to progressive bunion deformity over time. This patient underwent bunion correction with realignment of an underlying metatarsus adductus deformity to improve overall forefoot mechanics and alignment.

Not every toenail needs polish — some need restoration.
KeryFlex is a cosmetic nail restoration option that helps rebuild the appearance of damaged, discolored, thickened, or partially missing toenails.
It creates a natural-looking, flexible nail that can help patients feel more comfortable in sandals, at events, or on vacation.
This is not a fungus cure — it’s a cosmetic solution that may be used alongside proper podiatric care when appropriate.
Confidence starts from the ground up.
