When Other Doctors Said No
Mrs. Cross’s journey began with two falls that resulted in broken bones—injuries that were initially misdiagnosed. By the time she reached our practice, she was facing severe complications, including bone necrosis (dead bone tissue).
For two years, she visited multiple specialists seeking help. Each consultation ended the same way: “I’m sorry, I can’t do anything for you.” Some even suggested amputation as her only option. Watch Mrs. Cross’s complete testimonial above to hear her inspiring recovery story.
A Different Approach
At Certified Foot and Ankle Specialists, our board-certified team saw what others missed—an opportunity for reconstruction. From the initial consultation, we developed a comprehensive treatment plan addressing her severe foot and ankle deformity.
The result? As Mrs. Cross shares in her testimonial: “I have a life again! I didn’t have one.”
Specialized Care for Complex Cases
This case represents our commitment to accepting challenging reconstructions that other practices decline. Our surgical team has extensive experience with:
- Severe foot and ankle deformities
- Post-traumatic reconstruction following misdiagnosed injuries
- Bone necrosis treatment and repair
- Limb salvage procedures
- Multi-stage reconstructive surgery
Why Complex Cases Require Specialized Expertise
Not all podiatry practices have the advanced training necessary for complicated reconstructive procedures. Our team’s specialized fellowship training in sports medicine and complex foot surgery enables us to:
- Accurately diagnose difficult cases
- Develop comprehensive surgical plans
- Execute multi-stage reconstruction procedures
- Provide long-term post-operative management
The Importance of Second Opinions
Mrs. Cross’s story highlights a crucial message: never accept “nothing can be done” without seeking additional expert evaluation.
If you’re facing:
- Chronic ankle or foot pain without relief
- Recommendations for amputation

- Doctors declining to treat your condition
