Dr. Andrew Thome, M.D., cares for adult and adolescent patients and athletes with both common and complex injuries and disorders of the foot and ankle. He has a particular clinical interest in foot and ankle trauma/sports injuries, including fractures and tendon injuries, deformities such as flatfoot deformity, cavovarus deformity, bunions and hammertoes, as well as arthritis of the foot and ankle including total ankle replacement.
Dr. Thome completed his orthopaedic surgery residency training and an orthopaedic trauma surgery fellowship at Brown University in Providence, RI, and then pursued an orthopaedic foot and ankle surgery fellowship at Baylor University Medical Center in Dallas, TX with Dr. James Brodsky.

Dr. Thome's research interests center around improving patient outcomes and optimizing patient's recovery. Some of his research has included determining optimal techniques for fracture fixation using biomechanical models in the lab as well as clinical outcomes research looking at opioid use following total ankle replacement to help determine risk factors for prolonged opioid use after total ankle to help minimize side effects and the potential for dependency, as well as determining the risk factors for the development of arthritis. Dr. Thome has also authored several book chapters and continues to pursue evidence-based medicine. He is actively involved with the AOFAS (American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society) and AOA (American Orthopaedic Association) as an Emerging Leader.

Dr. Thome and the orthopedic team have provided excellent care throughout my recovery following ankle surgery. I appreciate the continued monitoring of my healing, the explanations regarding my progress, and the guidance provided as I transition from the walking boot to an ankle brace.
