A World-Renowned Bunion Specialist

Lapidus Forever Bunionectomy™

Whitney, a 47-year-old businesswoman who could not fit into her dress shoes because of her bunion and terrible calluses caused by it. We performed a Lapidus Forever Bunionectomy™ on her big toes and she was able to bear weight on her foot 2 weeks after surgery and was back in her heels at 8 weeks post-surgery with no pain and now an amazing looking foot. After image was taken 12 weeks post-op.

Lapidus Forever Bunionectomy™

Jamie is a 53-year-old nurse who was having trouble with pain in her foot and arch and a painful bunion. Our Lapidus Forever Bunionectomy™ was utilized to correct her bunion and to stabilize her foot, arch and of course big toe joint. Jamie was back at work at 10 weeks post-surgery with full function and no pain (she didn't even take an anti-inflammatory like ibuprofen).

Lapidus Forever Bunionectomy™ and Hammertoe Correction

George is a 62-year-old businessman who presented with a sore on his second toe from rubbing on his shoes. We decided to correct his foot as a whole and performed several orthopedic surgical procedures as she had both types of bunions. He chose our Lapidus Forever Bunionectomy™, a hammertoe correction and an osteotomy for his Tailor’s Bunion (bunionette). George was weight bearing on his foot at two weeks and back in regular shoes at 8 weeks with no pain and full function.

Forever Bunionectomy™ and Hamertoe Correction

Amanda is a 37-year-old mother who could not take much time off her foot and needed correction of a very large bunion (hallux valgus) that had also resulted in a hammertoe and partial discoloration of the 2nd toe joint. Amanda had a Lapidus Forever Bunionectomy™ and was back on her foot at 2 weeks after surgery and able to take care of her young children while she healed. Her bunion correction results are amazing, and her foot is fully back to normal.

MinVasive™ Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery and Tailors Bunionectomy

Melissa is a 32-year-old businesswoman who could not be off her foot post-surgery, yet she had a severely painful bunion. We performed our MinVasive™ Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery and had a dramatic correction with no downtime. Melissa continued to work after her bunion surgery and was back in shoes and full activity at 5 weeks. Melissa could not believe the results of her Bunionectomy resulting in no bony bump, no scar and amazing motion. "After" picture taken immediately following surgery. Note the bunion and bunionette (Tailor’s bunion) in the before picture. 

MinVasive™ Minimally invasive bunion surgery and Tailors Bunion

Anna is a 36-year-old working mother of two. She could not be off her foot at all post-surgery. Anna had our MinVasive™ Minimally invasive bunion surgery and osteotomy Tailor’s Bunionectomy (for her little toe bunionette). She was able to put weight on her foot right after surgery and was in shoes at 5 weeks after surgery. Her incisions are less than one centimeter and completely invisible at 5 weeks.

After image taken approximately 3 weeks post surgery.

EagleVision®️ is the newest generation of LASIK surgery, developed at the Assil Eye Institute. After years in development by renowned LASIK expert Dr. Kerry Assil, we believe it offers the best outcome of any LASIK technology available today. 

This state-of-the-art fifth-generation LASIK technique was initially developed for Assil’s patients who are high contact professional athletes (which include Lebron James, Dwayne Wade, Anthony Davis, Sugar Shane Mosley, Chris Paul and Paul George (to name just a few). 

We quickly found, however, that EagleVision®️ LASIK achieved superior results, not just for patients who engage in high contact sports, but for all of our patients. 

EagleVision®️ (which stands for “Elliptical-flap Aberrometry Guided Laser Enhanced Vision”) has become our premium LASIK procedure.
