Expert Foot & Ankle Care in Odisha – Walk Better, Live Pain-Free

Foot and ankle fractures often result from sports injuries, falls, or accidents and can severely affect your ability to walk, stand, or bear weight. Fractures of the foot and ankle are serious injuries that require precise diagnosis and timely surgical intervention to restore function and prevent long-term complications.

We offer expert surgical care for:

  • Ankle fractures (including malleolar injuries)

  • Calcaneus (heel bone) fractures

  • Talus and midfoot (Lisfranc) fractures

  • Metatarsal and toe fractures

  • Non-healing or complex stress fractures

Our surgical approach focuses on restoring bone structure, stabilizing joints, and preventing long-term complications like deformity or arthritis. Every case is managed with detailed planning, precise open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) fixation, and guided post-operative rehabilitation — ensuring optimal recovery and return to mobility.

Ankle ligament injuries, especially repeated sprains or torn ligaments, can lead to chronic instability, pain, and difficulty walking. When conservative treatment fails, ankle ligament surgery is performed to repair or reconstruct damaged ligaments and restore joint stability.

We offer surgical solutions for:

  • Chronic ankle instability

  • Torn lateral or medial ligaments

  • Failed non-surgical treatments

Surgical techniques may include anatomical repair or ligament reconstruction using tendon grafts. Post-surgical rehabilitation helps restore strength, balance, and mobility for long-term joint stability.

Foot deformities such as bunions, flat feet, high arches, claw toes, or post-traumatic deformities can cause significant pain and functional limitations. Foot deformity surgery aims to correct alignment, relieve pressure, and restore proper biomechanics.

We specialize in:

  • Bunion correction

  • Flat foot reconstruction

  • Cavus (high-arched foot) correction

  • Toe deformity correction (hammer toe, claw toe)

  • Post-traumatic foot realignment

Each surgery is tailored to the deformity’s cause and severity, ensuring improved function, foot shape, and walking comfort.

In patients with diabetes, foot ulcers and infections can become severe and may not respond to standard treatments. Diabetic foot surgery is sometimes required to remove dead tissue, treat deep infections, or correct deformities that cause pressure points.

We perform:

  • Wound debridement and drainage

  • Surgical treatment of infected ulcers

  • Correction of pressure-related deformities

  • Partial foot amputations (only when necessary)

Our goal is to preserve as much of the foot as possible, promote healing, and prevent future complications — while following a limb-salvage approach backed by medical and surgical coordination.

Ankle arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat a variety of ankle conditions. It involves inserting a small camera (arthroscope) into the joint to visualize, clean, or repair damaged tissues.

Indications include:

  • Ankle impingement (pain from pinched tissues)

  • Loose bone or cartilage fragments

  • Synovitis or inflammation

  • Ligament or tendon evaluation

  • Early cartilage damage

Arthroscopy allows faster recovery, less pain, and smaller incisions compared to open surgery, making it ideal for selected ankle joint problems.

Minimally invasive foot surgery offers a precise, tissue-sparing approach to treat foot conditions with smaller incisions, less pain, and quicker recovery. It is ideal for correcting certain deformities without extensive dissection.

We offer MIS for:

  • Bunion correction

  • Toe deformities (hammer/claw toe)

  • Metatarsalgia (forefoot pain)

  • Selected fractures or soft tissue release

This advanced approach ensures shorter operative time, minimal scarring, and faster return to walking and daily activities under expert care.
