During a Sept. 25 game against the Houston Astros, Mr. Andrus was carried off the baseball field after fracturing his left fibula while running the bases.

Brigham Au, MD, performed two procedures to repair the fibula bone and ankle, according to a Sept. 29 press release. Dr. Au said he was pleased with the surgery’s results and anticipates a “promising” outcome to the procedure.

The multispecialty surgery center’s services include orthopedics, podiatry, gastroenterology and plastic surgery.
