HyProCure Procedure at Joel Foster, DPM in Lee's Summit

HyProCure is a treatment method that helps realign and restore balance to the foot. This is achieved by placing a small titanium stent into the sinus tarsi. A podiatric surgeon makes a small incision during the procedure to place the stent. Once in place, the stent will absorb the pressure from the weight as the patient walks or runs. Along with serving as a stabilizer, this protects the ankle from bone damage and restores the range of motion.

Carrie’s procedure was performed in less than an hour, and after only two weeks in a walking boot, she transitioned into tennis shoes with limited activity and walking.

“The recovery period was very easy to navigate, except for two weeks of no driving with the right foot.”

She underwent HyProCure surgery on her second foot five weeks later. After two months post-op, Carrie resumed playing summer softball with no issues.

“I have no limitations with my feet now. At six months post-op, I had a bit of scar tissue in my right foot, but Dr. Foster performed an injection at the site and it dissipated. I’ve had no issues or pain since then. I highly recommend this procedure,” adds Carrie.

“Dr. Foster is so gracious and kind, and handles feet with the utmost care.”
