The practical sessions will provide you with the opportunity to perform podiatric surgery using replica equipment and plastic foot models, under expert guidance/tutelage. This will enhance your knowledge of hallux valgus surgery and, in addition, enhance the informed advice you give to your patients when:
• outlining possible treatment plans for their hallux valgus
• referring them for foot surgery
