Walking without discomfort is something that we oftentimes take for granted when we are younger, and while we always say that foot pain is never normal, it’s not uncommon for the feet of older or active adults to show some signs of wear over the years. If a foot issue is making walking difficult or uncomfortable, you want to do everything in your power to get back to walking without pain, and that’s where we come in.
If you want to get back to walking without pain or discomfort, your best bet is to connect with Dr. Silverman. We share some stories from satisfied patients who made that decision and are now much more comfortable on their feet!
Walking Without Pain
We were inspired to pen this blog after taking a closer look at some recent reviews on our Google page. Google features some words that are consistently mentioned in your reviews, and we were pleased to see that “walk” was the most common term that people used when writing a 5-star review. Here’s what former patients had to say about Dr. Silverman helping to restore their ability to walk.
“Today, 3.5 months after surgery I have no issues and little to no pain. The best part of the whole process starts with the entire office and support staff, everyone is just plain helpful! I am grateful beyond measure that I am walking so comfortably after years of pain. Thank you Doctor Lance Silverman.”
“I have had four surgeries with Dr. Silverman over the past three years and am happy with the care and results. I went to him for hammertoes that seemed to appear and worsen in recent years. I had also had three bunion surgeries years ago with other Dr. With one foot with very bad results. Dr. Silverman also diagnosed my weak ankles and bunionettes. He used my extensive e X-rays and other images to consult with a team of other doctors to create a plan. I am 74 years old and can now walk comfortably in a variety of shoes and I am no longer turning my ankles, which is really important since I have some osteoporosis.”
“I went to see Dr. Silverman due to annoying foot pain. I found out at my first appointment that I had a different issue with each of my feet that required treatment. I was provided non-surgical treatment options for my feet that have been very effective. A referral to physical therapy was also beneficial. I do a lot of walking and I’m happy to now walk pain-free. Thank you Dr. Silverman!”
“I visited Dr. Sliverman after numerous visits to other Dr.’s to deal with foot instability. He diagnosed the issue within minutes. Post surgery, I am able to hike, walk the golf course, manage my lawn, and keep up with my friends! Thank you Dr. Silverman!”
“I have suffered with foot and ankle pain for most of my life. I walked on the outside of of my right foot and often rolled my ankle. Dr. Silverman performed surgery that fixed the heel to level out my foot, tightened the ligaments and cleaned out the arthritis and necrosis in my ankle. After about six weeks of recuperation my foot is pain-free and I walk normally. Thanks for a great job!”
“I’ve had a painful bunion growing on my right foot for 6 +years and I finally decided it was time to deal with it. I chose Dr. Silverman because I had heard of someone else going to him and had said he was the best. I went in for a couple consultations and I really liked the care I received from Dr. Silverman. On the day I actually went through with the surgery I was at total peace and confidence in going with Dr. Silverman. He did an amazing correction on my foot and I am walking like normal after some hard resting, lots of encouragement, post-op care and physical therapy. I would go back again if I ever needed anything done with my feet! Feet are a serious thing, they get you everywhere, so if your looking for someone to trust and to give you the best of the best, I’d go o Dr. Silverman!”
As you can see, we’ve been able to help plenty of patients get back to walking normally without discomfort, so don’t put off treatment any longer if walking is no longer a comfortable process.
