*UPDATE – We are no longer offering virtual visits, as they are no longer covered by insurance*
If you’ve been following our blog for a while now, you probably know that Dr. Silverman and the team at Silverman Ankle & Foot are big fans of OssioFiber. OssioFiber is a surgical fiber that is twice as strong as traditional non-metal fixation devices, and Dr. Silverman performed the first surgery in Minnesota using the device.
The parent company of Ossiofiber is OSSIO Inc., and they reached out to a number of foot and ankle surgeons to see how they were managing to provide care during the COVID-19 outbreak. Dr. Silverman and a few others were interviewed and a compilation of the recordings was recently uploaded by OSSIO. We wanted to share the interviews with you so you get a better understanding about how we’re trying to provide care during this time, and so you can get a broader understanding of what providers in other areas of the US are going through.
Compilation Video
Here is the compilation video that features Dr. Silverman and four other foot and ankle surgeons speaking about the state of medicine and their clinics during the COVID-19 outbreak.
Dr. Silverman’s Interview
Below, you’ll also find Dr. Silverman’s complete interview with Brennan Marilla, the Chief Commercial & Operating Officer at OSSIO.
We’re doing our best to provide you with a high level of care even during these challenging times, and we’re always looking to add more virtual visits for patients who need to see a foot specialist but can’t make it into the clinic for one reason or another. To set up one of those telemedicine visits, reach out to our office at (952) 224-8500. It only takes a few short minutes to set up your virtual visit, and we’ll answer any questions you might have.
