Dr BLACK is absolutely great. He told me what he needed to do to correct my right foot. He explained everything. I felt very confident in his work. After a fusion and 5 screws, my right foot is finally straight. Very happy with his work. I'm still not getting around normally, but there is improvement. If you have problems with your feet, he is the man to see. I can't thank him enough, as I was walking on the inside of my ankle, my foot was so turned outward it was painful to walk.
