Sanford Orthopedics explains advances in technology


You hardly give it a second thought: You need to get from point A to point B and the only real effort involves standing up and taking that first step forward. Yet it isn’t always as simple as that. Foot pain is a common complaint amongst millions of people every year and the causes of this type of pain are as varied as people themselves.

That’s why it’s important to see a doctor who specializes in foot and ankle problems and can identify the cause of your pain as quickly as possible. Dr. Alan Yan is an orthopedic surgeon at Sanford Health who has the skill and the know-how to get you back on your feet –literally.

He joined us today to tell us more about how doctors diagnose foot and ankle issues in patients and, more importantly, how they can help relieve the problems that slow so many people down.
