Michael and Sydney George opened their ranch, Down N Out Cattle Co. in 2011. Michael's unstable ankle was causing severe pain and making his physically demanding job very hard to do.
He suffered from weekly sprains, 12 out of 10 pain levels, and had to concentrate on walking to prevent from rolling his ankle. Dr. Waters and the team at Platte River Foot & Ankle Surgeons diagnosed him with an unstable ankle and found his ligaments were not as they should be and there was even a bone fragment that had detached from his ankle and was hanging onto a torn ligament.
At first, Michael was not happy with the thought of having to take time off work to have surgery and heal but in this episode he explains why he would do it all over again and would even do it sooner if he could go back.

3D bunion surgeries/Lapiplasty procedures have been done for quite some time now. More recently, some companies have tried to coin the term and put big marketing dollars behind it via TV ads.
In reality, this procedure is a great option for certain patients but is not the right treatment for everyone. Dr. Waters and Dr. Lenertz break down the facts including what this procedure is, who is the right candidate, and what some other alternatives could be.
Always speak with a licensed podiatrist to determine what the best course of treatment is for you.

Crocs, dress shoes, flip flops, athletic shoes, and work boots - we dive into the best and worst options for your feet and give you specific brands to consider when purchasing new shoes!
While cheap flip flops are fine to take the trash out or go to the pool in, you don't want to wear them for hikes, to theme parks, or for everyday use. Instead of flip flops, try Birkenstocks with a back strap so you don't have to squeeze your toes to keep them on like these: https://www.birkenstock.com/us/milano-birko-flor-nubuck/milano-core-birkoflornubuck-0-eva-u_650.html
Other better sandal options include Chaco (https://www.chacos.com/US/en/womens-sandals/), Teva (https://www.teva.com/sandals/hurricane-xlt2/1019235.html?dwvar_1019235_color=BLK), Clarks (https://www.clarksusa.com/c/ATL-Trek-Sport/p/26170578), and Keen (https://www.keenfootwear.com/collections/mens-sandals/products/mens-newport-h2-monochrome-olive-drab)
Some better women's dress shoe options include: Clarks (https://www.clarksusa.com/c/ATL-Trek-Sport/p/26170578) and VAVAIA (https://www.vivaia.com/promotion/Bunions2-0115-5316.html?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=12749020986&utm_content=best%20shoes%20for%20women%20with%20bunions&gclid=Cj0KCQiAutyfBhCMARIsAMgcRJST48Dmy-gJ7szNBHGbn7jFo4jZv0qeEK6LRyNrqj2S_2CWxlbTkPEaAr04EALw_wcB)
For men, try to find a wider toe dress shoe as opposed to a pointy or skinny-toe shoe.
For both men and women's athletic shoes, we recommend Brooks (https://www.brooksrunning.com/en_us)

Ingrown toenails may seem like a small problem but they can actually cause major issues for your entire body!
People of all ages (babies all the way to the elderly) can get an ingrown toenail and regardless of who you are, it's important to have a Podiatrist help you treat them. Leaving an ingrown toenail in the hands of anyone other than a foot and ankle expert can cause further pain, damage, and frustration.
Send us a picture of your ingrown toenail and we may talk about it on an upcoming episode!
