When is Plantar Fasciitis Surgery Necessary?

Receive a Surgical Consultation from Dr. Dean Dorfman at East Ocean Podiatry

The majority of plantar fasciitis cases can be treated by Dr. Dean Dorfman at East Ocean Podiatry through non-surgical procedures. Conservative treatment options are most successful if plantar fasciitis is detected early on.  However, typically the longer heel pain goes untreated, the more difficult it is to successfully treat. 

Dr. Dorfman at East Ocean Podiatry has the expertise to provide the most advance heel pain treatment options for our patients.  This includes Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT), which is used to treat chronic plantar fasciitis. This therapy is a safe and effective alternative treatment for plantar fasciitis and only requires a short recovery time.

However, when East Ocean Podiatry non-surgical treatments are ineffective and patients are in need of plantar fasciitis surgery, they can rely upon the expertise of Dr. Dorfman. Certified in Foot Surgery and a Diplomate of the American Board of Podiatric Surgery since 1994, Dr. Dorfman has years of experience performing plantar fasciitis surgery.

From routine checkups to plantar fasciitis surgery, East Ocean Podiatry is equipped to handle all your podiatric needs.  Plantar fasciitis surgery is just one of the many services available through East Ocean Podiatry.  Below are additional examples of East Ocean Podiatry services:
