If you have experienced an achilles tendon rupture or tear, Dr. Kennedy specializes in repair of this injury.  He is trained in multiple ways of repair including minimally invasive techniques to full reconstruction and tendon transfers.

Ankle arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure to treat injuries of the joint.  This includes cartilage and ligament repairs.  Dr. Kennedy is well trained in this procedure.  The procedure usually involves little down time and quick recoveries.

Have you had a severe ankle sprain recently or in the past?  A lateral ligament repair procedure repairs this type of injury to keep the ankle stable to prevent further injury or damage to the joint.  Dr. Kennedy has performed hundreds of this procedure and is an expert with the Internal Brace.

Ankle fusion is a procedure to help alleviate pain in the ankle due to arthritis.  This procedure involves “fusing” together the two bones that make up the ankle joint.  If you suffer from ankle arthritis this procedure is an option to achieve the relief you are looking to obtain.

A hammertoe correction is a procedure to correct the deformity of the lesser toes.  This procedure helps alleviate pain associated with a hammertoe deformity.  This involves straightening the toe to make shoewear more comfortable.

MIS, minimally invasive, bunion correction is a specific procedure to correct a painful bunion deformity of the big toe.  Dr. Kennedy is trained on this technique which offers excellent correction of the deformity and appearance with the benefit of small incisions and less pain.  Contact Dr. Kennedy’s office for an appointment.

Dr. Kennedy is trained to perform ACL Reconstruction.  This procedure involves an arthroscopic technique to reconstruct a torn ACL in the knee.  These injuries usually occur during a sporting event but can happen with any knee injury.  The ACL is an important structure in the knee to maintain proper mechanics of the knee.  Dr. Kennedy can discuss the different techniques and options when this injury occurs to you.

A knee replacement, or TKA, is a very successful procedure to alleviate the symptoms of knee arthritis.  Dr. Kennedy is well trained for this procedure and now performs this procedure robotically with the MAKO robot.  To see if you are a candidate for this procedure, contact Dr. Kennedy’s office.
