Gerard Cush, MD, fellowship trained and board-certified foot and ankle orthopaedist at SUN Orthopaedics of Evangelical, will talk about ankles and specifically, ankle replacement as a treatment, at a free Talk with the Doc on Tuesday, September 26, 2023. The talk will begin at 6 pm at Evangelical Community Hospital in the Main Entrance conference rooms.
“For many patients, especially those with osteoarthritis or post traumatic arthritis of the ankle, ankle replacement can be a game-changer for those who are experiencing pain that keeps them from living,” said Cush.
“Not all patients are candidates for surgery, but for those who are, a replacement can be the right choice for a better life.”
Participants will gain insight on ankles, the impact disease—like arthritis—has on this crucial joint, what is involved with ankle replacement, and who qualifies to have the procedure.
