When Is Foot or Ankle Surgery Needed?
Many foot and ankle conditions respond well to non-surgical treatments, such as physical therapy, custom orthotics, and regenerative medicine. However, surgery might be recommended when conservative treatments no longer relieve pain or restore function, when the condition is progressive or worsening, when significant deformity affects mobility and comfort, or when an acute injury, such as a fracture or tendon rupture, requires surgical repair.
Common conditions that may require surgical treatment include:
- Severe bunions and hammertoes
- Chronic ankle instability and repeated sprains
- Achilles tendon ruptures
- Foot and ankle fractures
- Persistent plantar fasciitis
- Diabetic foot wounds and Charcot foot deformities
Foot & Ankle Surgery Procedures We Offer
At McVay Foot & Ankle in Colorado Springs, we offer a comprehensive range of surgical solutions:

Reconstructive Foot Surgery
We offer bunion surgery (bunionectomy) to correct painful bunions and realign the toe joint, hammertoe correction for rigid toe deformities, flatfoot reconstruction for severe fallen arches, and Charcot foot reconstruction to stabilize the foot structure in diabetic patients.
Heel & Soft Tissue Surgery
Procedures include plantar fasciotomy for chronic heel pain, tendon transfer and repair to restore function to damaged Achilles and other tendons, and diabetic limb salvage to prevent amputation by addressing severe diabetic foot infections.
What to Expect Before, During & After Foot or Ankle Surgery
Pre-Surgical Consultation
During your consultation, our board-certified podiatrists in Colorado Springs will perform a comprehensive foot and ankle evaluation using advanced diagnostic imaging. We’ll discuss treatment options, expected recovery times, and develop a personalized surgical plan that aligns with your lifestyle.
Surgery Day
Most foot and ankle surgeries are performed as outpatient procedures at a local surgical center. Whenever possible, our surgeons rely on minimally invasive methods to minimize scarring and promote a faster, smoother recovery. Depending on your procedure, surgery may involve correcting deformities or structural issues, repairing damaged ligaments, tendons, or joints, and realigning bones to restore proper function.
Recovery & Rehabilitation
Recovery times vary based on the procedure. Generally, you can expect 1–2 weeks of rest and limited activity, followed by 4–6 weeks of gradual return to weight-bearing. Physical therapy helps rebuild strength and flexibility. We provide detailed post-operative instructions and continuous follow-up care to ensure optimal healing.
