BUNION SURGERY


You have chosen to have bunion surgery by Dr. Nicholas A. Campitelli. While you may have heard stories of this being a painful surgery and long recovery, we have improved medical technology and refined the post operative course over the past 10 years to make this as smooth and painless of a recovery as possible. If you have already gone through your pre-operative visit with Dr. Campitelli, you should be aware of the options available for recovery. Some are not covered by insurance and if you would like to be proactive in all aspects of recovery you can elect to explore these options.
