Foot And Ankle Surgery

At Eren Hospital, our orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine doctors and physical therapists are specially trained in caring for foot and ankle pain. We treat all conditions related to the foot and ankle, from plantar fasciitis and stress fractures to arthritis and complications of diabetes.

The foot and ankle are complex. The feet each contain 26 bones (one quarter of all bones in the body) and 33 joints. The feet and ankles help you walk, run, bend, jump and do everything else that carries you through your day.

This heavy workload makes foot and ankle pain a common health problem. About one in six people experience foot and ankle issues. The good news is that we offer effective treatments for foot and ankle pain – from bracing and injections to total ankle replacement.

Pain in either the foot or ankle can be caused by conditions such as arthritis and broken bones, heel pain, or tendonitis. A large proportion of the cases our specialists treat are trauma from accidents or sports injuries.

The most common conditions we treat are:

Arthritis of the foot and ankle

Fracture of the foot and ankle

Sports injury of the foot and ankle

Tendon and ligament injuries of the foot and ankle
