Marketing Toolbox: Bunions and Couch to 5K |
Available to every ACFAS member, patient-focused infographics targeted to foot and ankle surgeons serve as both informative references during clinical sessions as well as general education for patients and visitors alike.
Bunions are one of the most common ailments addressed in a FAS practice. A comprehensive explanation graphic can be used during their diagnosis explanation, or printed out as a take-home reference for their next steps.
Taking the initiative to improve your lifestyle and register for your first running event can be a life-changing goal, but rushing in without training and medical clearance is a leading cause of foot and ankle injury. The Couch to 5K infographic steers patients to take precautions and listen to their body as they approach their first finish line.
