BUNIONS & HAMMERTOES
(crooked toe deformities).
Dr. Rockmore completed several hundred procedures using the latest minimally invasive and reconstructive techniques. The latest techniques using internal fixation allow most patients to walk on their feet the same day of surgery and get their feet wet after the 10th postoperative day.
PAIN & NEUROPATHY
Dr. Rockmore has advanced training in peripheral nerve problems, including neuropathy and pinched nerves. Dr. Rockmore is part of the New Jersey Peripheral Nerve Surgery Restoration Team. Even if other doctors cannot offer a solution for your pain, we may be able to, because after all, pain is a function of nerves and if you can properly test them and treat them, the pain may be a thing of the past.
DIAGNOSTICS:

- High-Resolution Ultrasound: Helps diagnose ligament, tendon problems on the spot that would otherwise require a waiting period for an MRI.
