Choosing a Foot and Ankle Specialist in Houston and Spring
tmillermd
When choosing care for foot or ankle pain, consider the clinician’s training, experience with your condition and ability to explain your options. Broad claims about being the best are less useful than understanding how your own problem will be evaluated.
Know the clinician’s role and training
Dr. Timothy J. Miller, MD, FAAOS, is a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon and foot and ankle specialist at KSF Orthopaedic Center. His advanced foot and ankle fellowship training was at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.
His practice includes common foot and ankle conditions, sports injuries, minimally invasive surgery, ankle replacement, reconstruction, deformity correction, limb salvage and second opinions.
Look for a clear discussion of options
A consultation should connect your symptoms with examination and imaging findings. Ask which nonsurgical options are appropriate and what a proposed operation is intended to change.
Discuss limitations as well as benefits. An individualized plan considers your activities, medical conditions, previous treatment and recovery needs; no procedure guarantees a particular outcome.
Choose a practical next step
Consider office location, follow-up and how to contact the team. Confirm your appointment location and insurance arrangements before the visit.
