Have your condition and imaging reviewed before travel.
No referral is required to request a private consultation. Dr. Latham offers virtual and in-person appointments. Before your consultation, the Surgical Solutions Network team gathers the medical information needed to review your condition and surgical needs. During your consultation, Dr. Latham reviews your symptoms, medical history, imaging, overall health and treatment goals. He answers your questions and discusses the procedure and approach suited to your needs.
Before your appointment:
Once the required medical documentation has been received, a surgeon consultation can often be arranged within 1 to 2 weeks. Timing depends on your medical needs, the information required, and appointment availability.
Send your imaging and medical reports to your patient advisor. If you need help sharing your scans, the team will support you through the process.
Depending on your condition, the information needed may include foot or ankle X-rays, an MRI or CT scan, the accompanying reports, and other medical records. Your Surgical Solutions Network patient advisor will explain what is required for your surgeon consultation.
The team gathers this information so Dr. Latham can assess your diagnosis and the location and severity of your foot or ankle condition during your surgical consultation.
If you decide to proceed with surgery, our team helps coordinate the preoperative testing, surgical care, and discharge planning needed for your procedure.
