ADVANCED SURGICAL TECHNIQUES/METICULOUS SURGICAL APPROACHES
Improvement and advancement in the surgical techniques in the foot including newer and safer implants allow a speedier recovery/return to work and minimal postoperative pain following foot surgery.

MINIMAL POSTOPERATIVE PAIN AND FAST RECOVERY
The advanced prostheses and minimally invasive technique implemented by Dr Kim allows little damage to the surrounding tissues and this allows a minimal postoperative pain as well as fast recovery. Although pain is subjective and differs from person to person, it is not uncommon to see that patients report a minimal discomfort post operatively.
-
APPROPRIATE ANAESTHETICS
For some patients, general anesthesia is a risk and/or a financial burden. Many procedures at Brisbane/Gold Coast Foot Surgery can be safely performed under local anesthetics with/without sedation on a day case basis. During your appointment, Dr Kim will explain the pros and cons of each anesthetic for your procedure.
