Every runner deals with aches and pains. What you might not have considered is that your body mechanics, the way that your body moves in space and hits the ground when you run, are having a tremendous impact on your performance and your potential for injury over time. Check out how the following runners crossed the finish line of recovery.

Annette Marco Island, FL

"For the past several years I had been in a lot of pain and discomfort with my feet. I developed bunions early on in my 20's. Up to that point I put up with the discomfort only to realize that it was affecting every part of my body. The staff at HSS, from the receptionist to the nurses and anesthesiologist, and Dr. Elliott himself and everyone who worked in the same- day surgery unit, made me feel safe and very comfortable up and until the time of surgery . I was given undivided attention even afterward. My pain was managed so efficiently, I went home that day."

"After having one of the best rated surgeons on Long Island perform my knee surgery, I went two years with further pain, especially on walking up & downstairs. Dr. Geoffrey Westrich immediately diagnosed my problem and set me up to do a revision of my knee due to the fact that the original surgery omitted the resurfacing of the patella. "

"I am telling this story after seeing and experiencing the incredible work that Dr. Rozbruch has done to better peoples lives when conventional medical advice is to say: stop running or there is nothing we can do or have more needless knee surgery. I hope that others with limb discrepancies and other similar issues can be healed by Dr. Rozbruch's fine work."
