    Area of Science:

    • Podiatric surgery
    • Healthcare management

    Background:

    • Physician preference significantly influences surgical environment selection for foot disorders.
    • Traditional healthcare allocation models position physicians as agents for patients and resource managers.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the feasibility of office-based surgical settings for foot surgeries.
    • To explore physician preferences and decision-making processes for surgical environment selection.

    Main Methods:

    • A Delphi study was employed to gather expert opinions.
    • Survey data from Alabama podiatrists validated the study's findings.

    Main Results:

    • A majority of foot surgical cases can be performed in an office-based setting.

  • Physician preference and individual case evaluation are paramount in choosing a surgical environment.
  • While consensus exists in some areas, most responses favor a case-by-case approach.
  • Conclusions:

    • Office-based surgery is a viable option for many foot procedures.
    • Physician training and potential financial/intellectual motivations may influence decisions on hospitalization and anesthesia.
    • Further research is needed on patient hospitalization patterns and anesthesia use for elective procedures.
