🔍 Redefining Bunion Surgery: Less Invasive. More Effective.

At Riverside, we believe the future of foot and ankle care is here — and it’s minimally invasive.
In this behind-the-scenes look inside the OR, fellowship-trained, board-certified orthopedic foot and ankle surgeon Dr. Jeff Levy, D.O., performs a real-time minimally invasive bunion correction procedure.

Why this technique matters:
✅ Smaller incisions = less scarring
✅ Faster recovery = quicker return to activity
✅ Less pain = improved patient experience
✅ High precision = better outcomes

Dr. Levy shares his expert insight on:
• How this advanced surgical approach works
• What the typical recovery timeline looks like
• Why it’s changing the standard of care for bunion patients

💡 For patients and referring providers alike, this is a meaningful step forward in orthopedic innovation and patient-centered care.
