Regenerative Medicine
Dr. Bruce Lerman is considered an expert in the development of growth factor therapy and its application in wound care. He started the O’Connor Wound Care Clinic over 20 years ago. Now considered the “Mecca” of wound care on the west coast. Currently he is the Medical Director of the Clinic. He was a consulting physician for Novartis tissue engineering committee, Organogenesis bioengineered skin products, Spiracur leader of negative pressure therapy and the newer amniotic products. Those initial principles of using growth factors to heal complex wound has over the past 20 years expanded to many areas of foot and ankle advanced treatment and surgery.
Lapiplasty Bunionectomy
Our podiatrists perform Lapiplasty® surgery to treat bunions, correcting the misaligned metatarsal bone in all dimensions and using titanium plates to fuse the joint, allowing patients to bear weight within days. Unlike traditional bunionectomy, which can take up to six weeks for weight-bearing, Lapiplasty® enables quicker recovery and doesn’t restrict footwear or activities, with most patients returning to sports in four months post-surgery.
Corrective Bunion Taping
Keryflex Nail Treatment
KeryFlex Nail Restoration is a painless in-office procedure that restores the appearance of damaged nails affected by fungus, defects, or trauma. It uses a composite resin to create a flexible yet durable nail, allowing natural nail growth and providing immediate cosmetic improvement. However, it’s not suitable for individuals with certain medical conditions or allergies, including peripheral vascular disease, arterial insufficiency, or pregnancy.
