After multiple failed surgeries for a foot issue by another surgeon, Dr. Faro asked the right questions to ensure a successful one. Since then, she’s also worked on my other ankle with great success. She asked questions and was never quick with the knife—trying to find the best solution to make me better.

Dr Faro did my ankle surgery back in October, she was to clean up the cartilage and remove bone spurs, and a possible strayers procedure to lengthen my calf muscles. I woke up from surgery and she had cleaned up the ankle but cut my Achilles’ tendon which was NEVER discussed! 19 days post surgery I ended up with deep vein thrombosis. I was clotted from my ankle to my abdomen. Dr Faro said it was safe to do therapy because I was started on blood thinners but hematologists said it wasn’t and to stop therapy. It’s been 7 months and my ankle has less range of motion then it had before, I have more pain then before, and I’m getting ready to have a 2 nd angioplasty to try to open the veins since I have scaring in them from the blood clots. I am now on blood thinner indefinitely. Thanks for nothing Dr Faro...my surgeon that initially worked on that ankle trusted you to do my surgery and now look at me.
