 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I underwent an FHL tendon transfer for my Achilles in February, and I’ve healed very well since the procedure. The surgeon was skilled and professional, and I felt confident in their care throughout. They explained the surgery and recovery process clearly, including the risks and expected timeline, which helped me feel prepared going in. Post-operative care was thorough, and I felt well supported during my recovery. Overall, I’m very pleased with the outcome and would recommend this surgeon to others needing similar treatment.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had an excellent experience with Dr. Welck while being treated for Morton’s neuroma. From the very first appointment, he was attentive, knowledgeable, and took the time to clearly explain my condition and the treatment options available. I never felt rushed, and all my questions were answered thoroughly.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I found Mr. Welck a very kind courteous and humorous man. He explained my ankle replacement operation in detail in easy (for me) to understand wording. The operation has been a complete success and now after only 12 weeks I have complete ankle movement and I can now get back to walking with ease, and unaided. Thank you so very much. This operation has made me so much more mobile,  not bad for an almost 80 year old woman.      Jan Webb
