When considering a lapiplasty procedure look no further than Dr. Franklin Polun. U tube will give you information as to what the procedure entails. It does not tell how this specialist cares for his clients. This is a unforgettable experience. Dr. Polun's staff is amazing, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The surgical coordinator was able to tell me step by step what to expect during the surgery. Dr. Polun's care for his clients is unmatched. He chooses the hospital he feels gives the best care for the surgery. I received a personal thank you note from Dr. Polun along with an xray picture of his completed work. Can you image him thanking me for letting him perform the surgery. Each and every member of staff who participated in the surgery signed their names in a thank you note. I still have those notes. Before the surgery l was given a list of medications for blood thinner to avoid blood clots, antibiotics, plus medication to avoid infection, as well as and assortment of medications for pain. I went home in a walker and a soft shoe. A week later l went to his office for a foot to knee hard cast ( l got to choose the color of my cast). Two weeks after that l was put into a futuristic booth that got a lot of attention at physical therapy. Dr. Polun was attentive to pain management, then there were xrays and more xrays double and triple testing his work. Surgery is painful, but the care he gave made me look forward doctor visits. This was by far the best treatment l've every received for a surgical procedure. Dr.Polun is simply the best.
