Gee, it's too bad that I am in Northern Florida. Dr. Metcalfe seems to be a lot more knowledgeable than the two podiatrist that I have been to. Does anyone have recommendations for a great doctor closer to my area?

Just had mine done and found this fascinating but cannot understand the reason behind sliding bone across then screwing. Is it for strength? Also, how is large toe straightened out?

Scarf osteotomy I’m assuming you mean? It’s a very strong position to hold bone hence why it’s used and it’s also reliable too
