Contact Information

A ruptured Achilles tendon often can be very debilitating and, in many cases, surgery is required to repair the tendon directly. The Achilles is the most commonly injured tendon in the foot. It is located on the back of the leg and is a thick, fibrous piece of tissue that connects the calf to the heel bone. Injury most often happens as a result of playing sports, although other causes are possible. Four to six weeks of casting and physical therapy are mainstays of treatment after a complete Achilles tendon tear.

Recent Success Stories

Dr. Hollawell was the 3rd surgeon I met with and found him to be very thorough, easy to speak with and felt that he explained everything in a manner that was understandable. He really took the time to go through things from the very 1st visit to where I am now post visit. I am very pleased and think he is an excellent surgeon. I have already recommended him to someone else.
