How DPC Can Help With Neuroma

Updated on: March 24, 2025

Neuroma Surgery and Direct Primary Care (DPC): Stepping Toward Comfort, Personalized

If Morton's neuroma has you limping in pain, you’re not alone—over 200,000 neuroma procedures are performed annually. Yet navigating treatment can feel overwhelming. Direct Primary Care (DPC) transforms this journey by offering seamless, compassionate support—so you can walk pain-free again.

 


 

Understanding Neuroma Surgery: Relieving Nerve Pain

Neuroma surgery removes thickened nerve tissue, often in the foot (Morton’s neuroma). Procedures include neurectomy (nerve removal) or decompression. Recovery takes 2–6 weeks, with most resuming normal activities quickly.

Key facts for patients:

  • Uses: Treat Morton’s neuroma, plantar nerve entrapment.

  • Safety: Low complication rates (5–10%); risks include numbness or recurrence.

  • Costs: Traditional clinics charge 3,000–7,000 USD; DPC reduces fees by 20–30%.

Risks of delayed care:

  • Chronic pain impacting mobility and quality of life.

  • Compensatory gait changes leading to joint issues.

  • Financial strain from repeated orthotic or injection costs.

 


 

How DPC Transforms Neuroma Care

Direct Primary Care (DPC) operates on a membership model (150–300 USD/month), providing unlimited access to a provider who coordinates every phase—from diagnosis to rehab.

1. Accurate Diagnosis and Surgical Planning

  • Imaging coordination: Order MRI or ultrasound during visits to confirm neuroma.

  • Surgeon collaboration: Secure OR slots within weeks, not months.

  • Pre-op prep: Manage diabetes or vascular issues for optimal healing.

2. Transparent Costs and Holistic Support

  • All-inclusive pricing: Bundle pre-op labs, surgeon fees, and follow-ups.

  • Reduced fees: DPC members pay 2,400–5,600 USD vs. 7,000+ USD traditionally.

  • Orthotic guidance: Recommend custom inserts to prevent recurrence.

3. Compassionate Recovery and Prevention

  • 24/7 access: Message your provider about swelling, infection signs, or pain.

  • Rehab plans: Partner with podiatrists for gait training and strengthening.

  • Footwear education: Advise on proper shoe choices to reduce pressure.
