Ankle sprains are caused by an unnatural twisting or force on the ankle bones of the foot, often resulting in one or more ligaments on the outside of the ankle to be stretched or torn.
Dr. Cruce specializes in Podiatric Medicine and Foot and Ankle Surgery. Educated at Wichita State University, he graduated with a degree in Secondary Education, and worked as a teacher for ten years before returning to medical school at Temple University in Philadelphia, obtaining a degree in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery.
