The Procedure

The option between physical therapy and surgery

This is exactly the gap TenJet was built to fill. Made by HydroCision, Inc., it lets Dr. Abdullah treat the degenerated portion of the Achilles tendon directly, in the office, as a step before an open surgical repair is ever discussed.

Ultrasound guidance directs the entire procedure
Only the damaged tissue is targeted by the saline stream
Suction clears it in the same session
Local anesthesia, same-day recovery
Reimbursed by Medicare and most private insurers

Already Tried Treatment?

When it's time for a second opinion

Conservative care works for many patients, but not all. Here's when it's reasonable to ask about other options.

Symptoms haven't meaningfully improved after 3+ months of consistent conservative treatment
Pain is starting to limit daily activities, not just athletic performance
You've had multiple rounds of physical therapy without lasting relief
You're considering surgery and want to understand less invasive options first
