Injuries & Sports Medicine

Achilles Tendon Conditions

Achilles tendinitis and tendinosis are among the most common overuse injuries we see, especially in runners. We address both acute flare-ups and chronic tendon degeneration with tailored treatment plans focused on getting you back to activity.

  • Tendinitis
  • Tendinosis
  • Tendon rupture

Ankle Sprains & Instability

Recurring ankle sprains can lead to chronic instability if not properly treated. We evaluate the degree of ligament involvement and guide you through appropriate rehab or stabilization, from bracing to surgical repair when needed.

  • Ligament sprains
  • Chronic instability
  • Peroneal tendon issues

Fractures & Stress Fractures

Foot and ankle fractures require prompt evaluation and accurate diagnosis. We manage both acute traumatic fractures and stress fractures in athletes and active patients, — from immobilization through return to activity.

  • Ankle fractures
  • Metatarsal fractures
