On this episode Luke and Dr. Abell talk about a common foot dysfunction - that is a "flat" or flexible foot that has failed conservative treatment.  What does surgical reconstruction of this area look like?  How long will I be immobilized? What kind of rehab follows this surgery?  Tune in and find out.
