Testimonials
If you have heard the horror stories about how painful bunion surgery is you are not talking to any of Dr. Bob’s patients. My surgery was painless and I have recommended nine people over the years who have had the same experience. And although Dr. Bob won’t make any guaranties about scaring, I have no trace of the surgery on either foot.
This surgery was so SUCCESSFUL. I am back to all of my exercising and i would say my range of motion in the toe is 90%. Prior to surgery it was painful and there was almost no range of motion. Dr. Bob is absolutely the best surgeon. i can wear heels (only do so occasionally) and any shoe is now my option including walking barefoot! Hooray!!! Do exactly as he tells you during recovery and you’ll do great.
Dr. Baravarian is THE MAN. He performed ankle surgery on me and saved my ankle. He is compassionate, caring and just an all around great guy. He is confident and professional and I can’t thank him enough for saving my ankle from a fusion. Thank Dr. Bob, you are my hero.
FAQ
What makes OSSIOfiber® an all-natural solution?
OSSIOfiber® is built with 50% natural mineral fibers found in bone and 50% natural polymer, materials that have been successfully used in surgeries for over 30 years. The OSSIOfiber® implant will then be replaced by your own bone as you heal, leaving just your fully functional self behind.
Can other procedures be performed with OSSIOfiber®?
Yes. OSSIOfiber® can be used in procedures for bone fractures, realignment, bone fusions and grafts when used with appropriate additional immobilization products, like casts and braces. These procedures can be conducted in both the foot/ankle and the hand/wrist. You should consult with your doctor on whether OSSIOfiber® is appropriate for your needs.
How long will it take for me to be healed and OSSIOfiber® to be fully integrated into your own bone?
OSSIOfiber® implants provide strength during the healing phase of your procedure and fully integrate into your bone over an 18 to 24 month period. OSSIOfiber® is the only implant solution that is there when you need it and gone after you don’t.
Are OSSIOfiber® procedures covered by insurance?
Yes, OSSIOfiber® procedures are covered by most commercial insurance plans, Medicare, and Medicaid just like metal implants.
Does OSSIOfiber® work differently than metal hardware?
Yes. Metal implants are permanently inside your body and inside your bone, even after healing. The permanent nature of these metal implants can lead to allergic reactions, pain, and the weakening of the surrounding bone in your body. They can even lead to a second procedure years later to remove the implant.1-3 OSSIOfiber® is an all-natural implant that is stronger than the outer surface of your bone and provides robust stability during the healing process. With OSSIOfiber® implants, healing begins immediately after the procedure, with the implant fully integrated into your surrounding bone in 18-24 months.5
Where is OSSIOfiber® available to use in a procedure?
OSSIOfiber® is currently available in the United States, with plans to expand to other countries.
What Patients Say About OSSIOfiber®
Anita
“This surgery has truly improved my quality of life. I’m walking long distances again and within a few short months, I was able to run a 5k race.”
Anne
“I like that I don’t have to worry about permanent hardware complications in the future. It’s fantastic that OSSIOfiber is able to use the same natural minerals found in bones themselves.”
