What Does a Foot & Ankle Surgeon Do?

A foot and ankle surgeon diagnoses and treats injuries and conditions affecting the bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, and soft tissues in the foot, ankle, and lower leg. This includes sprains, fractures, arthritis, instability, and tendon injuries that make walking painful or difficult.

At AICA Orthopedics, our specialists work closely with physical therapists, neurologists, pain management providers, chiropractors, and imaging teams to get the full picture of your condition before recommending treatment. This team approach helps patients get answers faster and start the right treatment sooner.

When Should You See a Foot & Ankle Surgeon?

If foot or ankle pain is not improving, a foot and ankle surgeon can help. Seeing a specialist does not always mean you will need surgery. In many cases, a foot and ankle surgeon can diagnose the problem, explain your options, and recommend non-surgical options first. Signs that it’s time to see a specialist include:

  • Ongoing foot or ankle pain that does not improve
  • Trouble walking, standing, or bearing weight
  • Swelling, bruising, or tenderness after an injury
  • Stiffness or reduced range of motion
  • Instability or a feeling that the ankle may give out
  • Numbness, tingling, or weakness
  • Pain that gets worse with activity or keeps you awake at night

Getting evaluated early can help prevent the problem from becoming more serious and may improve your recovery.

Common Foot and Ankle Conditions Treated by Our Surgeons

Foot and ankle conditions can make walking, standing, and daily movement more difficult. Our surgeons diagnose and treat a wide range of injuries and disorders, including:

  • Ankle Fractures: Broken ankle bones caused by falls, car accidents, sports injuries, or twisting trauma.
  • Foot Fractures: Breaks in the toes, heel, midfoot, or other bones that can make walking painful or unsafe.
  • Achilles Tendon Injuries: Inflammation, partial tears, or ruptures affecting the tendon at the back of the ankle.
  • Ankle Sprains and Instability: Ligament injuries that may lead to weakness or repeated ankle rolling.
  • Bunions and Hammertoes: Structural problems that can affect comfort, alignment, and mobility.

Each treatment plan is designed to support healing and restore function.

Non-Surgical Treatments Before Surgery

Many foot and ankle conditions can improve without surgery. Depending on your symptoms and diagnosis, treatment may include:

  • Physical Therapy: Guided exercises and hands-on care to improve strength, flexibility, balance, and joint stability.
  • Bracing or Support Devices: Supportive devices that protect the injured area and help stabilize it during healing.
  • Medication Management: Anti-inflammatory medication to reduce pain, swelling, and discomfort during recovery.
  • Injections: Targeted injections are used to reduce inflammation and improve comfort in certain cases.
  • Cold Laser Therapy: A non-invasive treatment that helps reduce inflammation and support the healing process.
  • Activity Modification: Changes to daily movement and habits to reduce strain on the foot or ankle.

These non-surgical options often provide meaningful relief and support recovery without surgery.

Types of Foot and Ankle Surgeries We Offer

When surgery is necessary, our team offers advanced procedures to repair damage and restore function. Surgical options include:

  • Fracture Repair: Surgery is used to stabilize broken bones in the foot or ankle with plates, screws, or other fixation devices to support proper healing.
  • Tendon Repair: A procedure to repair torn or damaged tendons, including Achilles tendon injuries, and restore strength, movement, and stability.
  • Ligament Reconstruction: A surgery that repairs or rebuilds damaged ligaments to improve ankle stability and help prevent repeated injuries or weakness.
  • Arthroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure that uses small instruments and a camera to diagnose and treat certain foot and ankle joint problems.
  • Bunion Correction: Surgery to realign the bones and soft tissue in the foot, reduce pain, and improve comfort with walking and daily movement.

Our surgeons recommend the right procedure based on your diagnosis, symptoms, and the level of damage involved.

You were kind enough to meet with me, to ensure that I was comfortable with AICA., and took me thru the typical protocol that one would expect after a personal injury. I thank you for that day, because I was new to this type of injury and I had no idea what to expect. It turns out that “everything you said” happened like clockwork. The facility, the care, the efficiency, and the follow-up from the staff and the Doctor was well beyond my expectation.
I am 62 yrs. of age, and over those years I can’t recall when I have ever had a doctor spend as much “quality time” with me explaining the procedures (pre and post-op) in preparing me as a patient. He took great interest in assuring me that I was in good hands, and at the same time made me feel that I was receiving special treatment. As I continued with my appointments I observed that my “special treatment” was not exclusive but was extended to all of his patients, as if they were his personal friends. Something you don’t see very often these days - A doctor with bedside manner.
Again, I appreciate the special care and handling of my injury over the past year, and I thank you for making this a pleasurable experience for me.
