DES PLAINES, Ill., June 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Illinois Bone & Joint Institute (IBJI), the largest independent, physician-owned orthopedic practice in Illinois, welcomes Dr. Bruce Noxon and Dr. Paul Goodman, of The Foot & Ankle Treatment Center, to our practice as of June 1, 2021.

With the support, resources and expertise of the physicians and staff of IBJI, Drs. Noxon and Goodman will be better able to serve patients and focus on their recovery and rehabilitation goals. Their patients will also have access to expanded schedules and new services through IBJI.

Dr. Noxon has lectured on many topics, including scarf bunionectomy, hammertoe correction, posterior tibial dysfunction, skin graft substitutes for wound closure, lower extremity biomechanics, and the diabetic foot.

He is one of only a limited number of foot and ankle surgeons who is board-certified in Reconstructive Rearfoot and Ankle Surgery.
