When Is Flatfoot Reconstruction Surgery Needed?
Flatfoot reconstruction may be recommended when conservative treatments such as orthotics, physical therapy, or pain medication fail to relieve symptoms. If you’re experiencing severe arch collapse, persistent foot pain, ankle instability, or difficulty standing for long periods, it may be time to consider surgery.
Our Surgical Approach
Our flatfoot reconstruction procedures may include tendon transfers, bone cuts (osteotomies), joint fusion, or ligament repairs based on your specific condition. We tailor the approach to your anatomy and severity to restore both structure and function efficiently.
