Minimally Invasive Foot Reconstruction
A surgeon-led approach built around outcomes— not just procedures.
Dr. Michael Tagge focuses on minimally invasive forefoot reconstruction, precision correction, and recovery experiences designed around how patients heal.
Philosophy
- I don’t just treat the diagnosis. I identify the root.
- I design the fix around the cause. Not the label.
- I guide the healing — not just perform the procedure.
That belief is the foundation behind BunionMaster and the PRISM™ Reconstruction System. Every condition has a root cause, a correction strategy, and a healing environment. My role is to design all three.
Why This Model Exists
Many patients delay foot surgery because they fear what comes after.
- Pain and difficult downtime
- Visible scarring or hardware
- General anesthesia risk
- Uncertainty about recovery
- Being left on their own after the procedure
Those fears are not trivial. They are often the exact reasons patients wait years to seek care.
The goal is not simply to perform a procedure. The goal is to design a better experience around the outcome.
Surgeon-Led Approach
This is not a high-volume, generic
treatment model.
It is a focused, physician-led approach for patients who value:
- Diagnostic depth
- Minimally invasive options
- Precision correction
- Clear guidance
- Structured recovery
- Premium patient experience
- Long-term thinking
