Fran Faro, M.D.

“I enjoy helping patients to understand the mechanics of their bodies. I believe that all healing begins with this education and understanding, whether the cure involves surgery or conservative treatment.

"I was drawn to the area of foot and ankle surgery because sound feet really are the foundation of good health. My goal is to educate patients about their options and together choose a treatment plan that fits their life and goals.”
