I really enjoyed every part of the process from the first apt. The surgery I had was to correct 4 toes that decided to go every direction but straight. Thought I was going to be in recovery for months but only lasted one day with no walking and no pain meds after day 2. Looking forward to correcting the other foot and walking my neighborhood, finally!!

It had become debilitating! I went to Dr. Nunez for a consult. I had been skeptical about his low invasive approach, under a local and asked for a "sign" that I should have him fix my issue. Upon walking in for my consult, 3 post-op patients were in the waiting room raving about the surgeries and their results. I took this as my "sign" and decided to proceed. The surgery was a breeze, I walked out in very little pain. I think I took 2 pain pills immediately after, as I wasn't sure what to expect when the numbing agent wore off. However, I don't think I even needed those. Recovery was a uneventful and speedy. I was mowing the yard after 2 weeks post-op! This man gave me my life back and I am very grateful. I highly recommend his approach and wouldn't hesitate to go back, if needed!

None of them were capable of helping me in fact none of them ever took an xray. Eventually my regular doctor/PA made me an appt with Dr. Arnold. 1st thing on the 1st visit I got an xray which showed I had a prominent bone spur on the afflicted food which helps to irritate the PF issue. I received a shot on the second visit, another appt was scheduled 2 weeks later but when I was interviewed by Dr. Arnold she determined since the pain was gone at that point no shot was advised. I havent been back, I have been pain free with only a minor, very minor flare up after doing things like pushing heavy wheel barrows which before ruined me for days. I can bike ride again too which is very important for me. Thank you Dr. Arnold. Office staff is very helpful and nice also.
