Midfoot & Rearfoot · Treatments
Midfoot & Rearfoot Treatments
Flatfoot, midfoot arthritis, soft-tissue lesions, and tarsal injuries.
Surgical
Learn more Amputation & Limb Salvage
When infection, ischemia, or non-healing wounds threaten the foot or limb, expert limb salvage surgery preserves function whenever possible - and provides the most functional amputation when it is not.
Surgical
Learn more Bone Cyst & Tumor Excision
Curettage, grafting, and en bloc excision for symptomatic or imaging-equivocal benign bone lesions of the foot and ankle.
Non-Surgical
Learn more Casting & Walking Boots
Immobilization is a powerful treatment for fractures, sprains, tendon injuries, and ulcers. The right device for the right injury makes the difference.
Non-Surgical
Learn more Compression Therapy
Graduated compression is the cornerstone of treating venous disease and edema. The right system, fitted correctly, transforms outcomes.
Non-Surgical
Learn more Corticosteroid & Nerve Injections
Targeted injections for nerve entrapment, neuroma, and tendon-sheath inflammation provide accurate diagnosis and durable relief in selected patients.
Non-Surgical
Learn more Custom Orthotics
Prescription orthotics, made to your foot and your gait, can transform pain from chronic conditions like plantar fasciitis, PTTD, and arthritis.
Non-Surgical
Learn more Diagnostic Ultrasound
In-office musculoskeletal ultrasound provides immediate, dynamic imaging of tendons, ligaments, nerves, and soft-tissue masses - at the point of care.
Surgical
Learn more Foot & Ankle Fusion (Arthrodesis)
For end-stage arthritis and selected deformities, fusion provides durable, predictable pain relief and restores alignment.
Surgical
Learn more Foreign Body Removal
Image-guided removal of splinters, glass, needles, and other retained foreign bodies - including those invisible on plain X-ray.
Surgical
Learn more Fracture Fixation (ORIF)
Open reduction and internal fixation of displaced and articular foot and ankle fractures - restoring alignment to prevent post-traumatic arthritis.
Surgical
Learn more Ganglion Cyst Excision
Definitive surgical removal of symptomatic ganglion cysts - including the joint or tendon-sheath stalk to minimize recurrence.
Surgical
Learn more Gastrocnemius Recession
For chronic foot pain driven by an isolated tight gastrocnemius (equinus contracture), recession lengthens the muscle just enough to relieve the underlying mechanical overload.
Surgical
Learn more Incision & Drainage
Soft-tissue abscesses of the foot need timely incision and drainage to prevent spread. Dr. O'Carroll provides urgent in-office and operative drainage.
Non-Surgical
Learn more Joint Injections
Image-guided joint injections - corticosteroid, hyaluronic acid, and biologic - provide diagnostic clarity and meaningful relief for arthritis and inflammatory joint pain.
Surgical
Learn more Plantar Nerve Decompression
For chronic, refractory heel pain or tarsal tunnel symptoms driven by nerve entrapment, surgical decompression provides definitive relief.
Non-Surgical
Learn more Shockwave Therapy
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that triggers the body's own repair response in chronic tendon and fascia pain - most often plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinosis, and stubborn heel pain.
Wound Care
Learn more Skin Grafts & Tissue Substitutes
For wounds that have stalled, bioengineered skin substitutes and autografts can dramatically accelerate healing. Dr. O'Carroll uses the right product for the right wound.
Surgical
Learn more Soft Tissue Tumor Excision
Marginal and wide excision of benign and selected malignant soft-tissue tumors of the foot and ankle, with attention to function and cosmesis.
Surgical
Learn more Surgical Debridement
Removing nonviable tissue is the foundation of every successful wound treatment. Dr. O'Carroll provides expert sharp and surgical debridement.
Surgical
Learn more Tendon Transfer & Reconstruction
Restoring balance to a foot disabled by tendon failure, posterior tibial dysfunction, or post-traumatic deformity through targeted tendon transfer and reconstruction.
