Hello! My husband has been having daily ankle and foot pain (he's broken the foot a few times in the past). Suggestions for orthopedic physicians?
Kevin K. replied:
Dr. Stephen D. Palmer and Dr. Ashleigh E. Korves. Dr. Palmer was on-call the day I dislocated my ankle, getting it trapped under a bicycle (not a scratch otherwise but my right foot was at a right angle!). I feel very fortunate he was nearby and the podiatry specialist available. He made sure the ER had reset the foot perfectly and guided me through my recovery, helping me avoid having a pin placed in it, which the vast majority of ankle dislocations require. His ability to explain everything I needed to know was exceptional, and I've visited his since for plantar fascittis. My parents and I were particularly impressed that even with his exceptional experience, he consulted with Dr. Korves using a team approach. His personality is very friendly and you leave with a smile whenever you visit because you know you're in excellent hands.
