Dr. John Reach(foot/ankle orthopaedist /surgeon) is an excellent diagnostician and wants to ensure that your injured part not only heals but works properly with the rest of you! He identified an underlying problem that was contributing to my non-healing foot stress fracture. Guess what? Neither the podiatrist who first treated my fracture, nor the ortho specialist who I consulted 3 months later found this problem. And the ortho consult was ready after 3 months to do surgery on my foot. Dr. Reach prescribed a non-invasive protocol(bone stim; special orthoses) that help to completely resolve the problem after 2−½ more months. I am pleased with the results and glad I kept searching until I found the best medical treatment for ME!
