For patients who've had a foot or ankle surgery that didn't go as hoped, and who live outside the area, care can often begin without an immediate trip to Dallas–Fort Worth.

Dr. Kane regularly evaluates patients from across Texas, other states, and beyond. When the right records and imaging are available, an initial telehealth consultation can help review the previous surgery, understand current symptoms, flag what's missing, and determine whether an in-person visit makes sense. To make that first conversation productive, it helps to gather operative reports, clinic notes, and your imaging (the actual files, not just the reports).

One important note: telehealth is a starting point, not a replacement for a hands-on exam. If surgery is being considered, an in-person evaluation is always required first. Learn what's needed to begin at oint.org.

After a surgery that didn’t deliver, many patients arrive ready to schedule another one immediately. Dr. Justin Kane’s approach is often the opposite: slow down.

Most revision problems aren’t emergencies. There’s usually time to investigate the real issue, review the records and imaging, and weigh every option before committing to another operation. As Dr. Kane puts it, he sees his role as advocate first, physician second, and surgeon third. Sometimes the right path means waiting. Sometimes it means more testing. And sometimes it means another surgery isn’t the answer at all.

If a prior foot or ankle surgery hasn’t given you the outcome you hoped for, you deserve an honest path forward. Learn more at oint.org.

One of Dr. Kane's longtime patients came to him after 36 prior operations.

His problems began with a motor vehicle accident that left him with injuries in both legs and years of deformity, repeated surgery, and dysfunction. Dr. Kane treated both extremities with external fixation followed by complex reconstruction, three operations on each leg. Today, roughly eight years later, he's gainfully employed, married, and still comes in every year.

His outcome doesn't mean every patient with a long surgical history can be restored, and no single story is a promise of any particular result. But it's a reminder that a long history of prior surgeries doesn't automatically prove every reasonable option has been exhausted. If a previous foot or ankle surgery hasn't given you the outcome you expected, you may still have options worth exploring.

When a surgery doesn't work, the first question patients often ask is, "Did my surgeon do something wrong?" It's completely understandable, but the honest answer is usually more nuanced.

A failed surgery isn't automatically a "botched" one. As Dr. Justin Kane explains, most unsuccessful outcomes come down to a combination of three broad areas: the original surgery itself (diagnosis, planning, or ex*****on), the patient's own biology and healing capacity, and sometimes simply an unfavorable outcome despite a reasonable patient, surgeon, and plan. Only one of those is about blame, and genuine negligence is far less common than patients fear.

The more useful question isn't who's at fault, it's what's causing the problem now, and what can reasonably be done next. That's where a thoughtful revision evaluation begins. Learn more at oint.org.

When a surgery doesn't deliver the outcome a patient hoped for, the most important next step is an honest look at what's wrong now, and whether there's a reasonable path forward.

In his latest blog, Dr. Justin Kane explains what revision foot and ankle surgery really involves. It's rarely just "doing the surgery again", it's a new diagnostic and strategic process built around a harder question: what is the real problem now, and what's the best way forward from here? He also addresses the questions patients arrive with, why a failed surgery isn't automatically a "botched" one, and why the right answer sometimes isn't another operation at all.

Revision and complex reconstruction make up about a third of Dr. Kane's practice. Read the full blog at oint.org.

Hand & wrist — thumb pain / basal joint

CAPTION: Opening jars, turning keys, twisting door k***s, if simple tasks are getting harder because of thumb pain, it’s worth paying attention.

Much of this kind of pain starts at the base of the thumb, where it meets the wrist. It’s one of the most common spots for arthritis to develop, and it tends to flare during gripping and pinching. Common signs include pain when you grip or pinch, a weaker grip, and a lingering ache at the base of the thumb. Many cases improve without surgery through splinting, activity changes, or injections, and when more is needed, effective options exist.

Don’t just push through it. Dr. Vikas Patel specializes in hand and wrist care at OINT. Learn more at oint.org.

Great orthopedic care isn't only about the procedure, it's about the people, the follow-through, and the trust built along the way.

At OINT, our fellowship-trained, board-certified surgeons treat every patient as an individual, from the first visit through recovery and beyond. Whether it's a foot and ankle concern, a shoulder slowing you down, or hand and wrist pain affecting daily life, our goal is the same: helping you move better and get back to what you love, with a team that genuinely cares how you do.

That's why so many of our patients return, and refer the people they love. Four locations across North Texas. Learn more at oint.org.

Does one of your fingers catch, click, or lock when you bend it? That's the hallmark of trigger finger.

It happens when a tendon that bends the finger becomes irritated and swollen, making it harder to glide smoothly. The result can be catching, stiffness that's often worse in the morning, tenderness at the base of the finger, or a finger that locks in a bent position and has to be straightened. It's more common with repetitive gripping and in people with conditions like diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis.

The good news: many cases improve with non-surgical care like splinting, activity changes, or an injection, and when needed, a straightforward procedure can release the tendon. Dr. Vikas Patel specializes in hand and wrist care at OINT. Learn more at oint.org.

Two feet, one procedure, and a result worth showing.

This patient underwent bilateral minimally invasive bunion surgery (MIBS), correcting both feet, and is now 2.5 months post-op. At this stage, the realignment has settled and the correction really shows. Minimally invasive techniques allow surgeons to address bunions through small incisions, which for many patients means less disruption and a smoother recovery compared to traditional approaches.

Results vary from person to person, and the right approach always depends on your individual anatomy and goals. If bunions on one or both feet are slowing you down, our team can help you understand your options. Learn more at oint.org.

Just two weeks post-op, and the change is already clear.

This bunionplasty was performed by Dr. Justin Kane using minimally invasive techniques, correcting the bunion through small incisions rather than the large cuts of traditional surgery. Even at two weeks, the realignment shows, and for many patients, the minimally invasive approach means less disruption and an earlier return to their routine.

Every foot and every recovery is different, but results like this are why MIBS has become such a valued option. Curious if you’re a candidate? Learn more at oint.org.
