What is the most common foot surgery? Bunion surgery and hammertoe surgery are the most common foot surgeries in NYC.

Can bunions come back after surgery? There is a chance bunions can return even after surgery. It is essential to take the necessary steps to prevent them by addressing the root cause and wearing properly fitting shoes with great support.
How long is the recovery from foot surgery? Some surgeries have a shorter recovery, like 2 weeks, as is the case for soft tissue procedures and for others, such as hammertoe and bunion surgery, recovery can take 6-8 weeks.
