After my pregnancy, I ended up getting a very painful ingrown toenail. Like “don’t touch my foot or I’ll scream” painful. I was very reluctant to see a foot doc, my husband had been to a few and he had nothing good to say. So I decided to see a new Doctor. When I made the appointment, the receptionist was really nice and actually gave me directions to the office (that’s right, she didn’t shoo me off the phone to answer the next call, she actually cared to give me directions). When I showed up at the office, I was very surprised. You walk into her waiting room and it’s like home! She had it beautifully decorated for the holidays, there was hot cocoa to drink and magazines to read on a very comfy couch – it seriously looked like my living room. I waited a very short time to see her and she was able to fix my toe without doing any really deep cutting (thank God!!!). She is just great! They didn’t even mind me taking my then four month old son in with me. I very, very highly recommend Dr. Ketterer – seriously if you need a foot doc you’ve got to see her!

After having had achilles tendon surgery, which involved the doctor detaching the tendon from the ankle, the bone spur was cleaned up and the tendon was lengthened. After that activity and light activity could be resumed in just a couple of weeks. Although I surely went easy on it for quite some time, the recovery was fine.
