A bunion correction without leaving hardware behind. 👣

Yes, it’s possible.

This transformation was achieved using minimally invasive bunion surgery with no screws, no plates, and no internal fixation left behind.

Through tiny incisions, Dr. Ho-Ellsworth was able to realign the bone and correct the bunion while minimizing disruption to the surrounding soft tissues.

For the right patient, this approach can mean:
✨ Tiny incisions
✨ No internal hardware
✨ Less soft tissue disruption
✨ Walking immediately after surgery
✨ A correction designed around both alignment and function

The goal isn’t simply to make the foot look better. It’s to correct the deformity while getting our patients back to moving comfortably and confidently.

Big correction. Tiny incisions. No hardware left behind.

🦶 Toenail fungus: what actually works?

Yellow. Thick. Brittle. Crumbly. And frustratingly stubborn.

If you’ve been applying an OTC antifungal for months with little change, there’s a reason. Toenail fungus isn’t always just a problem on the surface of the nail.

At Align Foot & Ankle, we take a more comprehensive approach. Depending on the nail, treatment may include:

✨ Professional nail assessment and care
✨ Prescription-strength topical treatments
✨ Antifungal foot soaks
✨ REMY laser therapy
✨ Treatment of athlete’s foot and surrounding skin
✨ Shoe and foot hygiene to help reduce reinfection
✨ KeryFlex Nail Restoration when appearance is a concern

And sometimes, the best answer isn’t choosing one treatment. It’s finding the right combination.

One of the most important things to remember? A damaged fungal nail doesn’t suddenly turn clear. We’re looking for healthier nail to grow forward from the base, and that takes time.
Also, not every thick or discolored nail is fungus. Trauma, shoe pressure, psoriasis, previous injuries and other nail conditions can look very similar.

So before you spend another six months guessing, start with the right diagnosis.

7 weeks. Tiny incisions. BIG transformation. 👣

After undergoing a previous hammertoe correction involving wires and larger incisions, this patient was left with multiple scars—and, over time, her hammertoes returned.

She didn’t want to go through the same experience again, so she came to us seeking another option.

This is what minimally invasive hammertoe correction can look like just 7 weeks after surgery: no large incisions, minimal disruption to the surrounding soft tissues, and strategic correction designed to bring the toes into better alignment while keeping recovery moving.

And we’re still early in the healing process.

MIS isn’t about doing less. It’s about accomplishing more with less disruption.

As we continue to grow and expand, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on what matters most: our patients.

Every review, every kind word, and every patient who chooses Align Foot & Ankle for their care means more to us than you know. Your trust has allowed us to grow into the practice we are today, and we are incredibly grateful for every person who has walked through our doors.

At Align, we believe great care starts with listening. We take the time to educate our patients, understand their goals, and make sure they leave our office feeling confident in their care and the plan moving forward.

Our approach has always been patient-centered and purpose-driven, combining innovative and regenerative treatment options with a commitment to finding the root of the problem, not simply treating the symptoms.

As we enter this next chapter of Align, we want to say thank you to every patient who has trusted us, supported us, referred a friend or family member, or shared their experience.

There is no Align without our incredible patients. You are the reason we continue to grow, evolve, and push ourselves to provide an even better patient experience. Thank you so much for over 400 reviews and a 5-star rating!!🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Thank you for being part of the Align family. 💚

One size fits all? Not when it comes to your feet. 👣

Drugstore inserts can add cushioning and general support, and for some people, that may be enough. But your feet, your gait, and the reason you’re hurting are unique.

A custom orthotic is designed around how your foot actually functions.

At Align, we look at your foot structure, alignment, gait, symptoms, activity level, and even the shoes you wear. We use a computerized scan to capture measurements, then customize the orthotic prescription with specific modifications based on what your feet need.

Because an orthotic shouldn’t just fill space inside your shoe. It should have a purpose.

In our latest blog, “Anatomy of an Orthotic,” we break down what an orthotic actually does, what goes into a custom device, and when custom may make more sense than something off the shelf.

🐾 Meet the Dogs of Align Foot & Ankle 🐾

In honor of National Dog Day, meet the four-legged coworkers, best friends, professional snugglers, and certified good boys & girls behind our team. 💚

Swipe to meet the pups who keep our Align family smiling! 🐶 →



Maggie & Maeve 🐾

Maggie is the distinguished big sister: quiet, sweet, and effortlessly classy. 🎀

Maeve? She always makes an entrance!! Energetic, affectionate, and just a little dramatic, she always wants to be held, included, and preferably the center of attention!👑

Together, they’re two of our favorite coworkers and love making their rounds to greet patients at the clinic. 💚

Ash 🐾

Goofy, smart, and the goodest girl!! Ash is Chris’s girl and the perfect combination of playful and chill.

Her love language? A good game of fetch. 🎾

Brody & Bruno 🐾

Brody is the distinguished older brother: sophisticated, unbelievably loving, and somehow capable of understanding every human emotion. 🤎 He’s gentle, caring, and takes his big-brother duties very seriously!!

Then there’s Bruno. A tiny Cavapoo who is absolutely convinced he is Brody-sized. He’s energetic, playful, incredibly loving and loyal, and just dramatic enough to keep everyone entertained. Bruno is almost impossible to photograph without a silly face!

His favorite place in the world? Curled up directly into his giant brother Brody. These two are definitely the favorite children!!🥹

Lily & Magnolia 🐾

When they’re not collecting pets, these two can be found strolling around their mom’s art gallery in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. 🏔️🎨

They’re professional greeters, certified goofballs, and always ready to welcome the next gallery visitor. 🤍

Oreo & King 🐾

Oreo is the social butterfly: silly, goofy, energetic, and always ready to make a new four-legged friend. 🐶

King, meanwhile, fully embodies his name. 👑 Sassy, confident, and very aware that he is, in fact, hot stuff. His childhood best friend was even a cat named Tigger!!

Romey 🐾

The friendliest boy with enough energy for the entire Align team. 😂🐾

Romey is incredibly loving and apparently has never heard of sitting sti

When the forefoot curves inward, the toes often follow. 👣

This patient has metatarsus adductus, a foot shape where the forefoot angles inward. Over time, that alignment can contribute to crowding, hammertoes, and toes that progressively drift toward the big toe.

In this case, we didn’t just straighten the hammertoes. We also performed metatarsal osteotomies to help realign the forefoot and improve the position of the toes.

A lot of correction. Very little incision.

Multiple painful deformities were addressed in one minimally invasive surgery, all through tiny incisions.

When appropriate, minimally invasive techniques can allow us to make significant structural corrections while minimizing the large incisions and extensive soft tissue disruption associated with traditional open surgery.

The goal isn’t just a better-looking foot or X-ray. It’s better alignment, better function, and getting patients back to moving comfortably.

If you’ve been putting off foot surgery because you’re worried about large incisions, hardware, or a difficult recovery, there may be another option.
