Dr. Robert Howard, DO

I came to Dr. Howard with a foot that was messed up by another surgeon. There had been other surgeons who did not want to attempt a revision surgery. Dr. Howard listened to me, was patient, and understood the emotional impact on me. He was willing to help me. I am still revovering but Dr. Howard has been amazing.

Mid-2021 I had a high speed accident causing significant fractures in my foot and ankle. Thanks to the excellent surgical repair by Dr. Howard, great post-operative support by the doctor and his staff plus physiotherapy sessions I'm now 90% recovered. I expect to be 100% recovered by spring 2022.

I Had bad arthritis in my ankle with lots of pain when walking. Dr Howard tried several different modalities to help with the pain. I ended up needing ankle surgery to fuse a joint. Recovery was long, but I am walking pain free now. The office was friendly and ran very smoothly. I would highly recommend him for any foot/ankle problem you have.

I had surgery for a traumatic ankle fracture in 12/2020....... Update April 2021 with the support of Robert Howard ,His Team and OSOC Physical Therapy Team I am walking independently, driving, working in my flower garden & yard. I am still doing daily exercises to improve my gait & Hamstrings...... Thank You ...... I could not have Reached Goal to be Completely Independent with out these Great Teams.......... I can continue to enjoy my Retirement Years (since 2006) and Grand Adventures. I could not have done it with out You....

Dr Howard recommened various ways to minimize the pain and discomfort in my feet. Following these suggestions have been very helpful, Unlike previous meetings with other physicians, Dr H felt surgery would only be a "last resort".

8 months after surgery on my Achilles tendon to repair damage I was able to golf 18 holes for the first time in over 2 years without pain. From surgery through physical therapy Dr. Howard and his staff were excellent in the entire process.

Dr.Robert Howard is extremely personable, very patient oriented and a true professional. He takes time to explain medical issues so that the patient clearly understands the problem. He evaluates the problem and offers an effective treatment plan. He is not one who rushes to surgery unless there is no other alternative. In my personal experience I have a great deal of confidence in Dr. Howard’s medical expertise and recommendations. I highly recommend him to those who require expertise in his particular specialization and skill set.

Dr. Howard recently performed a Bunionectomy on my right foot and I would highly recommend him to anyone searching for an expert in this field. Dr. Howard and his Staff were all professional, courteous and prompt and guided me through this experience flawlessly. I am more than pleased with the results and I am most grateful that my pain has disappeared. Thanks to Dr. Howard and his dedicated Staff.

Couldn’t be more satisfied with the service, the surgery and the out come. I felt he really listened to my concerns and went beyond what I had hoped to accomplish. Julie and his other staff were super also.

I went to Dr. Howard in April 2020, with right ankle pain. I had previously seen two other orthopedists for this same complaint and both had recommended surgery. Dr. Howard recommended cortisone injections, which helped relieve the pain but only for a limited amount of time. In October 2020, I underwent surgery and while progress seemed slow at times, due to being non-weight bearing and the use of assistive walking devices--It is now January2021, and with ongoing physical therapy and excellent surgical results, I am now walking again without any assistive devices. I would highly recommended Dr. Howard.

I have been seeing Dr. Howard since January of this year. He did X-rays, ordered CT Scans and we Scheduled Foot Surgery. I went to a Scheduled Appt. today on 5/6/2020. I had explained to Him on the First visit, about a previous Bad foot surgery. Maybe their Office needed to Charge my Insurance Company and rack in payments to fit their needs. I did have the Recespiness make a Comment to me, sure we will take your money! Well now 5 months later and unbearable pain in both feet, He kicked me to the Curb today after the Hospital had called me prior for Surgery Monday May 11th. I took paperwork to show him the New Findings of the Botched Surgery from a prior Surgery. He came into the room to say that the Surgeon that did my Prior foot Surgery was HIS FRIEND AND HE TRAINED UNDER HIM AND THEN HE KICKED ME TO THE CURB AND SAID THAT HE WOULD NOT CHARGE ME FOR TODAY! RED FLAG! FIND A BETTER SURGEON! I HAVE TO START FROM SCRATCH AND FIND ANOTHER SURGEON NOW DURING THIS SHUT DOWN!

I had a bad car accident resulting in multiple bone fractures and 3 different orthopedic specialist. Dr. Howard was and is by far the best of the 3. I actually had him take over one of the other fractures because I was unhappy with the other surgeon. Dr. Howard fixes his mistake as well. I can’t say enough good things about him, he’s helped me so much and been very caring while I’ve gone through a long healing process.

Sent me back to pt because he didn’t know what was wrong with my ankle

Dr. Howard was very compassionate and caring. He was able to fix my ankle! Highly recommend!

Fixed my foot! Super nice doctor
