Innovation

The first of the five core principles of our practice, is to
push the cutting edge of surgical techniques and develop
new procedures for our patients that reduce the effective
recovery time¹, and improve the aesthetic result.

One part training and experience, two parts creativity and
thinking differently, our innovation is focused around the
patient experience.

From the moment you walk into an evo practice, you'll
recognize that there is something magical happening here.
That's because every day, we strive to discover better ways of doing things, and
incorporate them into our protocols right away. This philosophy shines through in
the way we built our practice, the infra-structure we built for our patients, and the
procedures we've designed to make surgery a more pleasant experience.

Redefining modern foot surgery, evo is the evolution of private practice.

Technology

It's true, we're kind of geeky. Technology is what drives the human race forward...
and medicine is technology. So when it came to building the most advanced
Podiatry practice, we didn't skimp on the tech!

We combined cutting edge technologies from Apple, Fuji,
Stryker and iDoc technologies to provide our patients with an
unparalleled experience.

iPads are used to register, consent, educate and survey
our patients. Our digital spinal cord runs on Mac OS with
iDoc technologies. High speed Fuji x-ray scanning with a completely
paperless system handles the radiology and a brand new
Stryker RemB system crowns our operating room. Even this web site was
designed with the geek in mind giving our patients access to the first of it's kind
support and post-op tools.

The future is here and we'll make sure you have it at your fingertips in our office.

What's with the math you ask?

It's quite simple, this is the formula for our "secret
sauce"... Quality is inversely proportional to volume.
This timeless equation just can't be beat; increase
volume, decrease quality.

This is why early in our practice, we committed to
honoring this important rule. We keep our volume
limited so every one of our patients gets our undivided
attention and the premium experience they deserve. Decreased volume also means
our patients don't have to worry about sitting in the waiting room for an hour to see
the doctor; in fact we make it a point that our patients are seen within 10 minutes
of their appointments.

Your time is just as important as ours... at evo we make that a reality.

Confidence

We can tell you all the great things about our practice, but
the real test was when we opened up our facilities to the
scrutiny of the most respected name in hospital and
ambulatory surgery center accreditation, the Joint
Commission... and we passed!

The Joint Commission (aka JCAHO, pronounced "jay
koh") has been known for their rigorous examination of
policies and procedures to ensure patient safety for the
last 60 years.

We voluntarily applied for JCAHO accreditation of our facilities so we would comply
with National Patient Safety Guidelines and ensure that every corner of our practice
is checked and accredited by an independent organization.

Getting that Gold Seal on our wall was our prime directive so that our patients could
choose their surgeon and facility with confidence.

Responsibility

Of course we saved the best for last! The Environmentally
Proactive Practice (epp) initiative was created in 2005 by
Dr. Sadrieh and is based on a phrase from the hippocratic
oath: "I will prevent disease whenever I can, for prevention
is preferable to cure."

At evo, preventing disease doesn't stop in the four walls of
the treatment room, it continues to the environment our
patients live in. We believe that doctors carry a special
obligation to act as environmental stewards, living the
lifestyle and building practices that take into consideration the well being of their
patients inside the office, as well as out. Our practice is completely paperless, our
computers run off solar power and our patient transportation car runs on biodiesel.
But these are only a sample of the cool things we do to preserve our environment.

We do this because we care about your health, about your experience, and about
our planet.
