Flatfeet, or "collapsed feet" can be present at birth or acquired during a person's growth and development. Stress from a painful flatfoot can be the root of other foot problems in later years, such as bunions and heel spurs or ankle, knee, hip and lower back pain. Most people are helped by a simple orthotic insole that's placed in their shoes, but some require surgery to fix their condition.
Typically, these procedures are very extensive and patients are usually laid up for months. Now, Dr. Neal Frankel offers a revolutionary procedure called the 1-Step Technique. He implants a small titanium device in the foot to correct the collapse of the arch. The 1-Step Technique takes just a few minutes to perform and, unlike with other surgeries, the patient can walk right away with no pins, casts or crutches. The implant acts like an ever-present internal orthotic.
The friendly care you trust.
Dr. Frankel, a board-certified podiatrist, is proud of the leading-edge solutions he provides, like the 1-Step Technique. But it's just as important that you feel comfortable every step of the way, whatever brings you to his office. That's why he makes it a priority to deliver his state-of-the-art foot and ankle care in a friendly office where you'll always feel welcome and cared for. For full details on the revolutionary 1-Step Technique, give Dr. Frankel a call today.
