Ankle injuries are the most common athletic injuries. Over 25,000 athletes sprain their ankle every week. Although ankle sprains and fractures are some of the more common injuries we see at Silverman Ankle & Foot, we also provide the best care for other sports related injuries, including ligament and tendon damage, Lisfranc and midfoot sprains, and “Turf Toe” injuries.
From the outset, our goal is to accommodate your needs. Not only are we trained in surgical and non-surgical procedures, but we also know what type of rehabilitation can get you back on the field or court the quickest. While some injuries require a lengthy rehab schedule, we understand the importance of getting back on the field to finish your season. Depending on your injury, we may offer specialized non-surgical accommodation management. By working with specialized rehabilitation providers and effective bracing we can permit early return to play. Bottom line, you are back on the field for the remainder of the season and planning a reconstruction after the close.
