In July 2014 I had my painful and often inflamed bunions removed on both feet at Clinica San Roman.
All in one day. I was lucky to have one bunion removed by Dr San Roman Senior, and in his presence, the other one by Dr San Roman Junior. I can't remember which one by whom, as both operations were, and still are, equally successful.
This microsurgery has changed my life. No more painful red bunions. No more bad posture so no more pain in my back. Lots of feel-good exercise in fresh air.
Now it's 2025, I am 72, yearly average more than 7.000 steps a day, I hike light to (short) medium inclines, my posture is excellent, I am and look fit, my feet are healthy and look nice.
Please note that Dr San Roman performs expert surgery. I, his patient, do the work afterwards, simple routines that are easy to fit into an average schedule. I follow his advice, wear the right shoes, consulted a posture expert and still see her for occasional check ups, take daily exercise and also maintain my muscles as instructed by my trainer. I also go for free check ups at Clinica San Roman every 2 to 3 years (my last check up was a few days ago). Alicante is a nice vibrant town with delicious food, old and contemporary city walks and nature walks/hikes nearby, cultural highlights and sandy beaches, and within easy reach with (charter) flights.
Clinica San Roman came highly recommended to me, and in turn I thoroughly recommend it to other people suffering from foot-issues.
You may contact me for questions, and obtain my 'Before-surgery' and 'Now 11 years later' photos, through the Clinic.
I almost forgot, the Clinic is absolutely spotless with state of the art equipment, and both Doctors San Roman have a kind and charming bedside manner.
