Achilles Tendon Injury Recovery Story
Ortho SA specializes in orthopedic care and treats injuries from the knee to your spine and everything in between. Our certified orthopedic specialists, Dr. Morrey and Dr. Sarfani, are both experienced in the field and provide our patients with the utmost care.
We recently had a patient, Michael, who came in for a visit with us. His injuries were pretty critical and required extensive treatment for him to get better.
Michael had an individualized treatment plan provided by the orthopedic specialists to assess what his injuries were and come up with the best plan of action to give him proper results.
Michael’s Story
Michael (Patient): “To be honest, I didn't know if this was the end of everything. Dr. Sarfani took the time to be able to go through and talk to me about the pain that I was experiencing. We could have done some of the potential remediation policies or procedures ahead of time to prevent surgery if there was a possibility, knowing how intensive and laborious this surgery would be on a patient. I couldn't thank her enough for going through that information with me and for being so honest and candid. It was a long process, but it was exactly as she mentioned. I followed the protocol. I followed the instructions and documentation provided to me so that I knew exactly what I was experiencing and what I would be looking forward to!”
Dr. Morrey and Dr. Sarfani are two of our highly respected physicians in the clinic who had the pleasure of helping Michael reach that end goal.
Now… Let's introduce them!
