Less painful, less invasive procedure for bunions
#children with #flatfeet are often times recommended orthotics or surgery. This approach is actually unnecessary in most cases as flatfeet are a feature of a child’s body, not necessarily a “disease”. Keep in mind that orthotics do not treat the flatfoot, but should be used to alleviate the #pain or discomfort (IF present). The most common indication for #surgery is intractable pain. #kids #feet #surgery #orthopedicsurgery #orthopedicsurgeon #miami
The best part of my job is knowing patients are happy with the surgical outcome. An #ankle replacement is an alternative to ankle fusion for severe #arthritis in selected patients. #work #happy #painfree
Thanks to @ralphlauren for the generous donation to the healthcare professionals who worked during #covid19. Pretty psyched to have my personalized #polo 😆 The shirts will be worn by the @usopen staff during the games! Let me know if you can spot mine!!!
Minimally invasive fusion of the big toe for severe #arthritis. Can you see the incisions?! #pain #minimallyinvasive #happy
My patients just know how to make me happy 😃 #chocolate #organic #traderjoes #happypatient
Excited and honored to be presenting on minimally invasive surgery along with world experts! Tune in! @aofas1 @aaos_1 #smallerisbetter #pain #feet #work #fun
The American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society @aofas1 says it right: most foot and ankle traumas don’t need to go the the ER but can be assessed and treated by your orthopedic foot and ankle specialist! #savetime #lessstress #feet #ankle #job #pain
Beautiful note from a patient that I treated for severe infection and bone loss in his foot. He was about to undergo an #amputation elsewhere but we attempted an innovative procedure to salvage the foot. Despite the long recovery the patient did great! I could not be happier for him! #foot #ankle #pie #tobillo #happy #osteomyelitis #orthopedicsurgery #orthopedics #miami #miamibeach
#stretching is a crucial part of your #workout routine. At what point of your training should it be done? #run #jogging #muscle #pain #recovery #sport #foot #ankle #pie #tobillo #miami #orthopedicsurgery

Minimally invasive foot surgery is revolutionary! #foot #pie #tobillo #ankle #surgery #pain #dolor #miami #miamibeach #lovethis
The joint of a normal ankle (left) should look nice and smooth and parallel to the floor. The right xray shows a deformed and arthritic ankle resulting from a fracture. The pain from this degree of deformity and #arthritis can be excruciating. Fortunately, we have the technology and techniques to address this condition, and allow patients to return to a better quality of life! #pain #ankle #fracture #surgery #pie #tobillo #cirurgia #vida #life
A recent study confirmed that routine antibiotics after #foot and #ankle #surgery are not indicated. The main issue with prescribing routine antibiotics is the risk of creating antibiotic-resistant bacteria! Risk factors for infection? High blood pressure, history of cancer, and older age. #orthopedicsurgery #orthopedics #miami #miamibeach #infection #prevention
I #love minimally invasive #achilles tendon repair! Lower complication rate and lower postoperative pain. Will get this patient walking immediately to expedite healing. #pain #achillesrupture #surgery #miami #miamibeach
Happy to announce that Columbia University Orthopedics will open new offices at Mount Sinai in Aventura next week! Way to start 2021! #orthopedicsurgery #orthopedics #aventura #miami #fortlauderdale #foot #ankle #surgery
Minimally invasive #bunion surgery. No bunion is too big. Patient walked after surgery in a surgical sandal. High heels allowed at 3 months. #orthopedicsurgery #miami #miamibeach #keyholesurgery
Most exciting news of 2020!!!! #miami #miamibeach #covid_19 #vaccine #happy #excited #letsdoit
Traditional incision (left) vs minimally invasive incisions (right) for fusion of the big toe in patient with end stage arthritis. Patient will be allowed to walk after surgery in a surgical sandal. Shoes allowed in 6 weeks. #footandanklesurgery #footandanklesurgeon #miamisurgery #miamisurgeons #postsurgeryrecovery #postsurgerylife #surgeonlife #orthopedicsurgeon #orthopedicdoctor #infectionprevention #infectioncontrol #postopcare #postoprecovery #postopcaremiami #mountsinaihospital #miamidoctor #miamidoctors #bestpractice #anklesurgery #footsurgery #footsurgeon #anklerecovery
2 weeks after minimally invasive ankle fracture surgery. Incisions are barely visible, patient has no pain, allowed to walk immediately after surgery. Smaller incisions mean less pain, less risk of infection, better range of motion, and overall lower complication rate. @arthrex_inc #footandanklesurgery #footandanklesurgeon #miamisurgery #miamisurgeons #postsurgeryrecovery #postsurgerylife #surgeonlife #orthopedicsurgeon #orthopedicdoctor #infectionprevention #infectioncontrol #postopcare #postoprecovery #postopcaremiami #mountsinaihospital #miamidoctor #miamidoctors #bestpractice #anklesurgery #footsurgery #footsurgeon #anklerecovery
