Dr. Marr is one of the only fellowship trained foot and ankle specialists in the area to be trained in total ankle replacement surgery for patients with arthritis of the ankle. Total ankle replacement surgery may offer select patients many of the same benefits as total joint replacement of the hip and shoulder. Dr. Marr uses both the Prophecy INBONE Total Ankle System and the STAR™ ankle technology. He has a particular interest in injuries of the foot and ankle, total ankle replacement, sports medicine and general orthopedic surgery.
As a dedicated distance runner and a foot and ankle specialist, Dr. Marr understands the risks and injuries many runners contend with and the importance of approaches to keep athletes up and running. Most recently, Dr. Marr competed in the 2018 Boston Marathon where he ran the 26.2 mile course in 3 hours, 19 minutes and 7 seconds!

Dr Marr is very easy to talk to and thorough.
Well run office. Dr Marr explained everything in easy to understand terms.
Dr Marr is the best All the confidence in the world with him as my doctor
Very helpful in explaining my options for my ankle. Dr Marr is also very knowledgeable about rheumatoid arthritis (which I have) and explained how that was affecting the tendon in my ankle.
Very personable and takes his time to discuss options and outcomes.
Fabulous doctor
Great office staff. Excellent care staff.
Profesional and easy to talk to. Gave options for my care.
Dr. Marr, was kind and had a good sense of humor but more importantly he very clearly and thoroughly explained to me the arthritis in my foot showing me on the X-rays exactly where my worst problems were. He then explained, once again very clearly, what my options were for treatment. Dr Marr was forthcoming about the pain that often accompanies surgery and how he would alleviate that. He addressed recovery time and when I could joyfully be “back on my feet!” I left his office with a good understanding of my issues and options and I am ready to go ahead with the surgery.
Excellent work 👍
