Kathryn McCallum has reached an exciting milestone in her rehabilitation journey with us at Inspire Podiatry! 🥳 Kathryn underwent a Zadek closing wedge osteotomy for chronic insertional Achilles tendinopathy.
Initially Kathryn struggled to walk for 30 minutes without significant pain and felt she couldn't live without her crutches.
Fast forward to 14 weeks post-surgery and Kathryn is now walking pain-free without her boot and crutches, comfortably managing her daily activities and spending hours on her feet! 🙌
Kathryn describes her recovery as having its "ups and downs", but through consistent rehabilitation, progressive strengthening and plenty of determination, alongside the guidance of our podiatrist Evelyn she has made incredible progress!
Congratulations, Kathryn! We are so proud of how far you've come! 🎉
