A bunion (Hallux Valgus) is a progressive bone deformity that develops at the base of the big toe, causing it to angle inward toward the other toes. Over time, this creates a painful, visible bump, making it difficult to walk comfortably or wear regular shoes.
Dr.Mohamed Turky is one of the pioneers of Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) for bunion correction in the region.
Unlike traditional open surgery, which requires large incisions and long recovery periods, MIS uses tiny incisions (often just a few millimeters) guided by X-ray imaging to realign the bone without the need for extensive cutting or hardware exposure.
Tiny incisions with minimal visible scarring
Significantly less bleeding during surgery
Faster return to daily activities and walking
Superior cosmetic outcome compared to open surgery
Lower risk of complications and infection
Most patients walk in a protective shoe within days of surgery, with a gradual return to normal footwear over the following weeks. Dr.Mohamed Turky personally tailors the correction plan to each patient’s foot structure and severity of deformity.
