Local Doctor Becomes 1st HyProCure Center of Excellence

Dr. Anthony Weinert. DPM, FACFAS, FACCWS, acclaimed local podiatric surgeon, becomes Michigan’s first and only HyProCure® Center of Excellence

Macomb, MI, December 13, 2013 – Dr. Anthony Weinert, a renowned foot surgeon with offices in Troy and Warren, has been recognized as Michigan’s first and only HyProCure® Center of Excellence. Dr. Weinert is one of less than 20 physicians nationwide to receive the designation from GraMedica, a global orthopedic medical device company headquartered in Macomb, Michigan. The Center of Excellence designation reflects superior quality of care, education and experience as related to the HyProCure® medical procedure. 

HyProCure® is an innovative solution to the devastating effects of partial talotarsal dislocation, a foot imbalance that throws the foot and the entire body out of alignment. The two primary symptoms of this condition are hyperprontation (where the feet roll inwards) and fallen arches. Conservative estimates indicate that up to 40% of people of all ages suffer from this painful mis-alignment and related secondary conditions, such as:  bunions; heel pain; knee pain; hip and back pain. HyProCure® is a is a minimally invasive outpatient procedure that preserves full foot motion and permanently corrects talotarsal displacement at its root, realigning both the foot and the entire body.
