A member asked:
Who (orthopedic surgeons or podiatrist) does vascularized bone grafts for osteonecrosis of the talus-in denver, chicago, st. louis or kansas areas?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Ankle Specialist: I would check with the medical schools in each of the cities. Chicago and st. Louis have multiple medical schools. In the orthopedic department look for the doctor listed as foot and ankle. This at least means that he or she is fellowship trained

Ask: I would start with the physician that gave you the diagnosis. He/she is likely able to help you find someone that does even if not in your area.
