The Center
for Dr. Wu's Bunion Surgery is dedicated exclusively to the treatment,
research and education of the bunion condition and to the development
of non-bone-breaking bunion surgery.
Foot is more
for function than for show. The ultimate goal of bunion surgery should
always be function restoration so that foot can return to normal
activities and shoes without restrictions and recurrence. Foot function
can only be meaningfully assessed by computerized function scan study.
To demonstrate objectively and ensure that Dr. Wu’s non-bone-breaking
bunion surgery can restore normal function of bunion feet, our center
has been conducting force function study of every foot with F-Scan® by
TekScan before and after surgery since 2005. Bunion surgery to us is not
only for cosmetic correction but even more importantly for function
improvement.
To ensure
consistent x-ray assessment of each foot for before and after surgery
comparison and for research purpose, the center is also equipped with
state-of-the-art foot-specific competerized digital x-ray machine.
Our center
has its own foot-lab to provide custom-made foot orthotics and also a
wide range size of ready-made orthotics specifically designed for
protecting bunion feet.
