"An outstanding experience. It has been 6 months since my very complicate foot surgery and although I have more healing to do, the results have been excellent. My operation ..."

OVERVIEW

As a physician, I enjoy the challenge of helping patients with complex foot and ankle problems including arthritis, tendon disorders or ruptures and sports injuries. I believe that successful outcomes in foot and ankle surgery rely on establishing a physician-patient relationship by taking time to listen and understand the concerns of the patient as well as set appropriate expectations through patient education. I am board-certified in orthopedic surgery by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgeons specializing in surgery of the foot and ankle including minimally invasive surgery of the foot and ankle, ankle replacement and fusion, Achilles tendon disorder, foot and ankle ligament repair, Charcot reconstruction, sports injuries of the foot and ankle and many other conditions. I earned my medical degree at Temple University School of Medicine, and completed a residency in orthopedic surgery at Temple University Hospital and a fellowship in orthopedic foot and ankle surgery at Duke …University Hospital. I am currently a member of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgery (AAOS), American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), Duke Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society, Alpha Omega Alpha. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and two daughters as well as playing golf, BBQing and cooking.

"Was treated by him for MRI confirmed injuries. While addressing one of them, he would totally disregard the other one, even when prompted numerous times. Was talked down to and told it was very concerning to him that I was expressing how much pain I was in. Not concerned for me, but concern that he didn’t think there was an issue. Yet, after doing surgery and ignoring one of the issues, I still had major problems. He would not address and wrote it off and spent more time talking about himself, then a resolution to my problem. Went to another surgeon, and got a second opinion that verified the other surgeons recommendations for surgery. My leg bones were dislocating from my ankle due to the fact of extreme damage to my ankle ligaments. Had to have total reconstruction of the ligaments and donor tissue was needed as my ligaments were no longer viable. He totally disregarded this and said there was no issue. He even stated that he knew better than a radiologist about MRI results."

"An outstanding experience. It has been 6 months since my very complicate foot surgery and although I have more healing to do, the results have been excellent. My operation involved 6 interrelated procedures. I reviewed the post operation details including all X rays and I was amazed with the "craftsmanship" and the progression of healing. Dr Lachman has give me back my ability to walk without pain and I am back on the golf course. I highly recommend Doctor Lachman to anyone who wants an excellent outcome."
