Foot and Ankle Surgery Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a referral to access Gateway Surgery?
No referral is required. You are welcome to contact our team directly. We will gather the information needed to get your journey started and connect you with the right surgeon for your condition.

The cost varies depending on:

  • The specific procedure
  • Anaesthesia requirements
  • Facility and surgical fees 

 
Patients receive a detailed quote prior to surgery, outlining all associated costs. There are no surprise fees, and timelines are significantly shorter than public waitlists, which many patients factor into their decision.

While these procedures are generally safe, potential risks include:

  • Infection
  • Delayed wound healing
  • Nerve irritation or numbness
  • Blood clots
  • Recurrence of deformity (depending on condition) 

 
Serious complications are uncommon and discussed thoroughly during consultation. 

Many patients are able to access surgery as early as 4 weeks following their consultation, depending on medical readiness and surgeon availability. Our team will provide a clear timeline after your consultation so you know exactly what to expect.

Post-operative care includes:

  • Detailed pre-operative education and preparation guidance
  • Clear recovery protocols and post-operative instructions
  • Follow-up appointments to monitor healing
  • Rehabilitation recommendations or physiotherapy coordination
  • On-call nursing support for up to 8 weeks after surgery 

 
Our focus is restoring strength, stability, and full functional range of motion safely and efficiently. 

Coverage depends on your specific insurance plan and whether the procedure is performed in a private surgical setting. At Gateway Surgery:

  • Many extended health benefit plans reimburse portions of surgical, anaesthesia, or facility fees
  • Coverage varies significantly between providers and policy tiers
  • Patients are encouraged to contact their insurer in advance to confirm eligibility and reimbursement percentages 

 
Gateway's administrative team can provide documentation and cost breakdowns to support insurance submissions. Patients without coverage are provided transparent pricing before booking.
