What to expect when you have your ankle evaluation by Dr. Buechel or one of our surgeons?

Bring recent ankle x-rays and any other medical information to the office

An in-person evaluation would involve assessment of the blood vessels to the affected foot

Examination of the leg and foot for associated deformities including examination of the skin 

Patients who have had previous ankle surgery must have their incisions examined 

Fusions can be taken down and existing hardware from fractures may possibly be removed

Once you are thoroughly evaluated, options will be discussed with you
