In 2001, I had endured over 2 years of cortisone injection by an orthropedic doctor, but I could barely walk. The damage was done, but after multiple surgeries by Dr. Barrett, "quality of life" is once again in my vocabulary. It is gratifying to learn of the expansion of Barrett Foot & Ankle Centers in Arizona & Texas. Over 5,000 doctors have been trained in the "Barrett technique.

Too graphic! I'm not a doctor and don't care to see quite so much! I expected exercises and text, not a doctor's manual. My foot is better though, since I've been to a sports medicine doctor.
