Any recommendations for a good foot and ankle surgeon? Need ligament and tendon repair. We're seeing a local doctor this week and we're interested in getting a second opinion. Thanks!

Thanks for the information!

Dr. Chad Wadkins Fla. Muscaskeletor. He repaired my spouse's severed tendon and performed a bunionectomy at the same time. His follow up care, treatment and
compassion are amazing.

If it is a serious foot/ankle condition, requiring treatment beyond the range of local docs, go to Dr. Robert Vander-Griend at the University of Florida. 352-273-7001.

You have to travel a bit further but depending on your case the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville may be worth the trip. Joseph Whalen (ankle and foot reconstruction orthopedic surgeon) fixed my ankle problem (surgery to repair the ATFL) when several sports medicine practices were scratching their heads.

I agree that Dr. Johnny Wu is excellent. Put me in a boot for 12 very long weeks during the summer and kept me from having to have surgery on my torn Achilles tendon..


The only negative I can say about this nice man is that he graduated from University of Michigan.
