Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Specialists

Given the complex nature of the foot and ankle, personalized care and expertise are especially important when dealing with any related injury or condition. At TCO, our orthopaedic foot and ankle specialists are dedicated to examining, diagnosing, and customizing treatment plans to restore mobility and function to get you back on your feet.

Comprehensive Diagnosis & Treatment of Foot & Ankle Problems

Bones, tendons, ligaments, and muscles harmoniously work together in your feet and ankles to allow the movement involved in walking, running, jumping, etc. The foot and ankle are intricate structures made up of more than 30 joints. When an injury or condition disrupts the normal functionality of any of these joints, it can result in pain, muscle weakness, and limited mobility.

An Uncompromised View in Foot & Ankle Diagnosis

TCO has the power and precision of pedCAT™. This computed tomography (CT) imaging technology helps our physicians evaluate and diagnose patients with precision and confidence. The pedCAT is the first in-office, ultra-low dose CT solution for the foot and ankle.

TCO can capture both feet simultaneously in a standing or seated position in under one minute or a partial single foot in 20 seconds. The full 3D volume is ready to view in less than three minutes.

Ultra Low-Dose CT Imaging

At virtually the same radiation dose as traditional 2D X-rays, a pedCAT scan emits 90 percent less radiation than a conventional medical CT scan. The pedCAT assesses a wide spectrum of clinical conditions including fractures, dislocations, arthritic joints, Lisfranc injuries, tarsal coalitions, osteomyelitis, flatfoot condition, metatarsalgia, hallux valgus, bone cysts, fused joints, etc.

Enhanced Diagnosis From Weight Bearing Views

Weight bearing 3D images overcome image distortion and superimposition presented in traditional weight bearing radiographs, while providing significantly more precise and detailed diagnostic information.

Advanced Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Care Surgical Solutions

When conservative treatments are not sufficient to alleviate hip pain or restore function, our team may recommend surgical intervention. Some of the advanced procedures we offer include:

Ankle Arthroscopy

A minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat various ankle joint problems, such as cartilage damage or loose bodies.

Achilles Tendon Repair

Surgical repair of a torn Achilles tendon, which connects the calf muscles to the heel bone.

Ankle Replacement

Surgical replacement of the damaged ankle joint with an artificial implant to restore function and relieve pain.

Fracture Repair

Surgical realignment and stabilization of fractured bones in the foot or ankle, often done with screws, plates, or pins.

Flatfoot Reconstruction

Surgical correction of flatfoot deformity to restore the arch of the foot and improve stability and function.

Ankle Fusion

Surgical fusion of the bones in the ankle joint to relieve pain and improve stability, often done for severe arthritis or joint damage.

Ligament Reconstruction

Surgical repair or reconstruction of damaged ligaments in the ankle, often done for severe sprains or instability.

Neuroma Removal
