Avoid Ankle Surgery with Regenexx

Osteoarthritis of the ankle leads to tenderness, pain, swelling, stiffness, and even an inability to bear weight that in turn change how you walk leading to additional stress on other parts of the foot and increased likelihood of additional injury. When arthritis reaches a point where quality of life is significantly compromised, one of several invasive surgical interventions may be recommended including ankle fusion, a procedure that uses screws to severely limit ankle mobility, or ankle joint replacement, a complex procedure that involves replacing a part of the extremely complex ankle joint. Both of these surgical options come with significant downtime and need for pain management.

During this outpatient procedure, our expert physicians use precise image guidance to inject custom concentrations of your body’s natural healing agents into the exact areas of damage to tighten and stabilize your ankle for better function and mobility. Best of all, your downtime will be a fraction of surgery, with little to no need for opioid pain medications or time off of work. Call our patient care coordinators today to get started on your path to recovery.

I was born and raised in the farmlands of Iowa. I completed a BS degree in Biology with minors in Chemistry and Psychology. From there I moved on to medical school at Loma Linda University completing a residency in physical medicine and rehabilitation and a fellowship in pain management. I am board certified in each and have been in private practice for the past 15 years. I decided to make the change to regenerative medicine in 2022 after I herniated my C6-7 disc to the left with severe nerve root compression with significant pain, numbness as well as some weakness. I was going to have surgery but Dr. Jamie Lewis convinced me to have a treatment using Regenexx injectates as I waited. Turned out that I never needed the surgery as the platelet lysate injection series stopped the pain and woke up the arm. Now I have no sensation loss or strength loss. I was aware of PRP treatments but I had no idea of the benefits that could be achieved even with my severe nerve root compression from a disc herniation. I have been studying, training and performing regenerative treatments since then and am thankful to be able to provide those same procedures using Regenexx injectates to my patients.
