Achilles Tendon Pain

Easton Blake

My name is Easton Blake and I was a patient of Dr. Drakos about 2 years ago. I came in with a ruptured Achilles tendon and he performed a repair on my foot, which now is fully healed 100%. Earlier this year I took the ultimate test by running the Brooklyn Half Marathon. I completed the 13.1 mile run in 2 hours and 8 minutes which isn't bad at all :-). I've also been playing basketball, even dunking again. Feels so good to have made a full recovery. Once again, thank you for being such a kindhearted & skillful surgeon.
