Total Ankle Replacement

Many people suffer from ankle arthritis or chronic ankle pain and are often told that surgery is their only option. However, with advancements in medical technology, ankle fusion is no longer the primary solution. Total ankle replacement offers a promising alternative.

What Total Ankle Replacement Can Do For You

Total Ankle Replacement, also known as Total Ankle Arthroplasty (TAA), is an effective solution for treating ankle arthritis or chronic ankle pain. It allows patients to maintain ankle mobility after surgery while minimizing post-surgical complications.

Benefits of Total Ankle Replacement

  • Preserve the Remainder of Your Foot: Maintain the integrity of your foot structure
  • Freedom of Ankle Motion: Retain a full range of movement in the ankle
  • Continued Physical Activity: Stay active and engage in physical activities you enjoy
  • Reduced Adjacent Joint Stress: Unlike fusions, it minimizes stress on neighboring joints

How Yoga Can Help Your Ankle Pain - Warner Orthopedics & Wellness Logo

WE'RE HERE TO HELP YOU REALIZE YOUR HEALTH GOALS

Dr. Meredith Warner founded her private practice according to her beliefs that functional medicine, or functional wellness, should be blended with conventional Orthopedic medicine.

At Warner Orthopedics & Wellness, we believe that good medicine should be proactive and encompass the whole of you and your body’s systems.

How We Support You On Your Wellness Journey:
Functional healing focuses more on supporting an already healthy lifestyle – or adapting routines to create a healthier way of living – instead of merely responding to illness and injury with treatments designed to only address symptoms.

At our clinic, we believe that you are ultimately in charge of accomplishing your health goals. We just give you the tools and resources you need to get started towards a path to better overall wellness.

We believe that you should be empowered in your health journey.

If surgery is required, we will give you the tools you need to recover faster and better than prior to the injury.
