Dr. Lewis is confident in his skills and i believe he is definitely knowledgeable. He is likely capable, but that was not my experience. I had Lapiplasty bunion corrective surgery and hammertoe correction. Almost a year later i still had swelling, pain, and the hammertoe was in worse shape than when we began. His best recommendation was to just get used to it and see how it goes. During treatment he also seemed to forget from one appointment to the next what he said he wanted to do. I wanted physical therapy early but finally started physical therapy 3 months post surgery...which was counter-productive. I don't recommend him as a surgeon. I had an orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon in Fort Worth correct the issues. So two surgeries on one foot. The second one had to happen so that I could walk properly and without pain. The delay in physical therapy from the first surgery also caused the Achilles tendon to seize up. The second surgeon had to extend that too. I had more physical therapy, but this time everything was successful. My foot is hideously scarred, my toes don't work like they should have, and there will always be pain where he turned the bone, but I can walk distances, climb stairs, and not swell up by end of the work day now because of the second surgeon. Do yourself a favor and get a second opinion and do your research. read more
