Orthopedic Needed to follow up Ankle surgery.
My daughter broke her ankle in several places. She has had surgery and a plate and screws were inserted. This took place in Massachusetts. I would like to bring her down to The Villages to recooperate but she will need follow up care with an orthopedic. Any experience or suggestions as to who I can call? I need help.

Chad Watkins is a podiatrist, not an MD. I would see one of the MDs at Tri-County Orthopaedics or at least insist on one of the MDs at Florida Musculoskeletal Institute.

Depending on who takes what insurance. My wife gives high marks to dr. Cox in Ococee (north Orlando) Right off the turnpike.

Follow-up care
Quote:
Being in a single story house during recuperation certainly beats dealing with stairs on crutches! I wish we'd lived here when I was going through the ankle recovery. Since I have lived here, I have had a consultation with Dr. Olivierre relative to some hip issues I have developed. He is a highly recommended orthopedic surgeon. Good luck to both of you |

Thank you so much for your reply. She intents to come back up here because this is where she lives and works. Makes me think I should wait here for her first follow up appointment. Then maybe I should call him tomorrow ask ask if I can do the follow up in Florida. Lots to think about and digest.

I can tell you, if you need a new hip ( I have two ). Go see Dr. Joseph Locker. He is wonderful. He replaced my second hip using the anterior approach. Recovery was very quick and easy.
