At Prime Foot and Ankle Specialists, our bunion foot doctors provide expert diagnosis, treatment, and surgical correction for bunions. Whether you are seeking conservative care or considering surgery, we offer cutting-edge solutions, including Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction™, to restore foot function and eliminate pain.
Bunion surgery has advanced beyond traditional methods. Lapiplasty® 3D Bunion Correction™ is a patented procedure designed to permanently stabilize the joint and correct the underlying cause of bunions.
Key benefits of Lapiplasty®:
Corrects the root cause of the unstable joint
Walk in a boot within days of surgery
No casts required for recovery
Minimal downtime with a faster return to daily activities
This advanced technique rotates the deviated bone back into its natural position, straightening the toe and eliminating the painful bump. Innovative plating technology secures the correction, ensuring long-term stability. Most patients resume walking within days, with no need for a cast.
Comprehensive Bunion Care
Our podiatrists provide expert treatment, cosmetic and correction surgery for this foot deformity.
Bunions are primarily genetic, but certain factors—such as trauma, tight footwear, and poor foot structure—can worsen them over time. As the big toe drifts sideways, it can lead to painful complications like hammertoes, corns, and calluses.
If left untreated, bunions may become progressively worse. While wider shoes, padding, and custom orthotics can help slow progression, surgery is the only permanent solution for realigning the bone.
At Prime Foot and Ankle Specialists, our bunion doctors offer both conservative treatments and surgical solutions to help you stay active and pain-free.
Prime Foot and Ankle Specialists’ mission is to get you back on your feet as soon as possible.
Bunion Surgery: What to Expect
Bunion surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, allowing patients to return home the same day. Many patients begin walking within a few days and resume normal activities in a short period.
Our goal is to get you back on your feet as quickly and safely as possible.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to recover from a Lapiplasty® Bunion Procedure?
Most patients are walking within days using a surgical boot.
By six weeks, patients transition to comfortable shoes like sneakers.

Can I wear fashionable shoes again?

However, certain styles may still cause discomfort, even with a corrected foot.
Can I return to sports after surgery?

Can this procedure be done if I’ve had previous bunion surgery?

What does “reproducible” mean in relation to this procedure?

It utilizes precision, patented instrumentation designed to take the guesswork and “eyeballing” out of surgery — helping ensure your surgeon can get reliable results over and over.
