The Podiatry Podcast with Dr. Thomas Rambacher
If you've been told you need an amputation, that bunion surgery will keep you off your feet for months, or that your neuropathy can't be treated, get a second opinion first.
Dr. Thomas Rambacher is a double board-certified foot and ankle specialist with 25 years of experience saving limbs other surgeons gave up on. On this channel: the real answers about foot surgery, limb salvage, peripheral neuropathy, diabetic wound care, and modern podiatric techniques that let most patients walk the same day.
No outdated advice. No unnecessary amputations. Just what actually works.
