Look for the "O"

The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society provides helpful information on the importance of selecting a Foot & Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeon for your foot and ankle care reminding all of us to 'Look for the "O"' - for "orthopaedic surgeon." Five important reasons to select an orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeon include:

• Foot & Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeons are fully trained MDs and DOs.
• Foot & Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeons are highly specialized and have completed intensive training.
• Foot & Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeons provide surgical and non-surgical lower extremity care.
• Foot & Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeons are experts at complicated cases.
• Foot & Ankle Orthopaedic Surgeons are a great choice for second opinions.
