LABOR DAY SPECIAL
TWO BONUSES WITH YOUR SEAT · ENDS MONDAY · --
THE ONLINE COMMUNITY FOR MIS FOOT & ANKLE SURGEONS
Whether you're brand new to MIS or you've already done the cadaver labs, you belong here. Live Thursday case calls, a 2,000+ case library, and surgeons in your corner, from wherever you practice. Book the bone cases you've been sending away and never operate alone.
Cancel anytime. No contract.
A PERSONAL INVITATION
THE WALL
The weekend course felt great. You did the burr work. You asked the sharp questions. You drove home already planning your first bunion case.
Then the week started. Clinic. Staff. Insurance. And that case never got booked.
Here's the pattern I've watched for years. Soft tissue comes quickly. Tenotomies, tendon releases, confidence builds. Then comes the first osseous case. The lesser metatarsal osteotomy. The bunion. The hammertoe correction. Real bone work on your own patient. And the hesitation, the doubt, the second-guessing show up.
And bone work is different. You're cutting through a small portal, trusting feel over a clear view. The stakes feel higher because they are.
Then there's the part no one says out loud. MIS is still the minority. When an open case has a complication, it's expected. When one of ours does, it gets amplified, like the whole field is watching for a reason to call the technique reckless. So you play it safe. You do the open case you've always done. Or you don't book it at all.
It's not a knowledge gap. It's the weight of it being real. Your patient. Your name. Your outcome. And no one to talk it through the night before.
Skill was never the thing standing in the way. Doing it alone was.
THE REFRAME
A hospital surgeon with a hard case walks down the hall and grabs a colleague. Private practice MIS has no hallway. You close the office door and it's you, the X-ray, and the decision.
What closes that gap isn't more talent or more training. It's guidance. Mentorship. Surgeons in your corner, so you're never carrying the case alone.
MIFAS Elite is that room, and it lives online. An elite community of MIS surgeons who've already crossed the wall you're staring at, guiding you, rooting for you, and making sure you never operate alone. No travel, no waiting for the next conference. It's with you wherever you practice.
WHAT YOU'RE JOINING
01 · THE COURSE
The MIFAS Accelerator: 8 modules covering all MIS core foundations, from soft tissue and hammertoes to lesser metatarsals, bunions, and bandaging. Filmed on real patients with my voiceover on every decision, and yours from day one. New to MIS, or coming from a device rep's fixation system and ready to go deeper? This is your starting line. No prior training with me required.
02 · THE COACHING
Every Thursday you're live online with MIS surgeons from across the country. Our faculty runs the calls and I lead them personally through the month. Grand rounds on steroids. Bring your case, get unstuck, walk into your OR knowing exactly what to do. Every call recorded.
03 · THE COMMUNITY, THE HEART
A space safe enough for complications, not just wins. The cases that didn't go as planned are where the real learning lives. This is the part most programs don't have, and the reason our surgeons don't stall out and quit.
The Course removes "I don't know how." The Coaching removes "I'm not ready." The Community makes sure you never quit.
EVERY THURSDAY · RECORDED
You bring the case you're not sure about. We put it on the table, live on the call. MIS surgeons who've seen it a hundred ways, working it through with you from wherever they practice. You leave knowing exactly what to do.
It changes what you tell the patient, too. Instead of deciding alone, you get to say what hospital surgeons say: "Let me bring your case to my surgical committee this week." Now you actually have one.
Can't make Thursday? Every call is recorded. Drop in, ask, and go.
CASE 0847 / 2000+
Search 2,000+ real cases from me and our members. See exactly how it was handled: the approach, the fixation call, the post-op course. A second opinion on demand, any hour of the night.
And when the library isn't enough, text a photo of the x-ray straight to me or an advanced surgeon. A third set of eyes before you ever pick up the burr.
THE VAULT
Day one, you get the full MIFAS Accelerator: all 8 modules covering every MIS core foundation. Plus 12 years of my op notes, op-report templates, and preop-to-post-op documentation you can use in your own practice, along with the billing protocols we run, so you document it right and get paid right from your first case. And a curated library of 200+ studies and articles on MIS outcomes, so when a colleague asks whether this is evidence-based, you have the literature ready.
Then it keeps opening up the longer you stay. The Master Class Vault at 3 months. Advanced coursework at 6 months. And at 12 months, the crown jewels: Dr. Stephen Isham's MIS demonstration footage and sessions from our International MIFAS conference.
ACCELERATOR: DAY ONE · VAULT UNLOCKS AS YOU STAY · ANNUAL: EVERYTHING ON DAY ONE
THE BENCH
I run four to five small-group cadaver labs a year, including one advanced lab and the International MIFAS conference, kept deliberately small so every hand gets guided. Most seats are gone from the inside before the public ever sees a price.
Members get first right of refusal on every seat, plus $500 to $1,000+ off member pricing.
WHY I BUILT THIS
It was 2014. I was overworked and underpaid as a foot and ankle surgeon. Patient overload, insurance headaches, a wife and two kids at home, and a real fear I'd let them down. I was that close to walking away.
Then, at a conference, I saw the tiny portal MIFAS surgeons were using to do incredible percutaneous work. I couldn't ignore what was clearly the future of foot surgery.
I poured my life into it. I traveled to my surgical mentors over 40 times in 2 years, learning beside MIS pioneer Dr. Stephen Isham. I invested over $185,000 learning how to build a practice around it.
Today my practice is hybrid-concierge. About 3.5 days a week, 8 to 10 patients a day, no insurance-network hassle. And most of my time goes to one thing: making sure other surgeons don't stall the way so many do.
Since then I've spent my years teaching this. At the International MIFAS conference I host, in cadaver labs where I guide every hand, and every Thursday, live online, with the surgeons in this community. More than 1,200 of them since 2017.
Because no surgeon should have to carry a bone case alone. I did, for years. That's the one thing I want to change for you.
"I built the elite community I needed in 2014."
WE MEET THURSDAYS ONLINE. THERE IS A CHAIR OPEN FOR YOU.
THE COMMUNITY, IN THEIR WORDS
Real members. Real cases. Their own words.

LABOR DAY SPECIAL · ENDS MONDAY, SEPT 7, 11:59 PM PT · -- LEFT
BONUS 1 · NORMALLY A 6-MONTH UNLOCK
Rearfoot, midfoot, and the deeper procedures the 8 core modules don't touch: a deeper dive into MIS principles, techniques, and surgical pearls, normally reserved for members 6 months in. You start it the day you join, on monthly or annual.
BONUS 2 · A $1,997 COURSE, FREE
Not part of the membership at any tier, at any price. The complete course on bringing procedures into your own office-based surgical suite: the setup, the workflow, the protocols. Yours to keep.
Both granted in your Skool account after you join. When the timer ends Monday night, these two bonuses go away.
Only 32 of 100 founding seats remain at $197. Seat 101 pays $297.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU JOIN
Join at $197/mo or $1,970/yr, locked for as long as you stay. A couple of clicks through checkout and you're signed up.
A short welcome questionnaire comes first, just a couple of minutes, so we can place you right and make sure it's a fit. Then the Thursday calls, the private community, the 2,000+ case library, and the full 8-module Accelerator open up.
Bring a real case, get unstuck live, and operate your next one with MIS surgeons behind you.
It's a monthly membership, so here's the deal, straight up. Show up to at least three Thursday calls. Start the first modules. Bring one real case to a Thursday call. If you do that in your first 30 days and don't believe this community will change how you practice MIS, reach out and we'll refund you 100%. No nagging, no hassle.
32 CHAIRS LEFT
MIFAS Elite didn't start as a membership. It started as a few surgeons who were done operating alone and decided to protect each other instead.
Today there are 68 of us. We're opening the doors wider on purpose. Not to sell seats. To finish the community: colleagues who answer at 9 PM before a hard case, who make sure no one here stalls out or quits alone.
Here's what 100 chairs actually means. More than 1,200 surgeons have trained with me since 2017. This community caps at 100. 6 of the chairs filled in July alone.
Every founder locks in $197 for as long as they stay. When chair 100 fills, this page changes. Seat 101 pays $297 for the same community, the same Thursday calls, the same vault. That's $100 more a month. $1,200 more a year.
The $197 rate has no countdown. Its deadline is 32 empty chairs.

Wondering about the full certification pathway? Ask about the MIS Intensive. Elite membership is included in it.
AFTER YOU JOIN
Here's how it works. You sign up at checkout, then we send you a short welcome questionnaire. It only takes two or three minutes, about your practice, your training, and the cases you want to be booking.
It does two things. It shows us where to start you first. And it lets me make sure the fit is right before we get you set up in the community.
THE NO-HOSTAGE PROMISE
If I don't believe you're a fit, I'll reach out. Once we agree, I'll refund every dollar.
No back and forth. No contract to escape. No colleague kept on the books, and no one here held hostage.
Most memberships are built to keep you. This one only works if it serves you. If it can't, I'd rather tell you on day one than take your money and hope.
STRAIGHT ANSWERS
One Thursday call, about an hour, live or recorded. Modules are at your own pace. Most members spend 1 to 2 hours a week and put the rest into booked cases.
Every Thursday, online. Join live from your office or your couch, ask your question, and go. Every call is recorded and searchable in the community, so if Thursday doesn't work, watch later. It works around your schedule.
Yes. Nobody here checks where you learned the technique. Bring your cases, use the library, get backup. The Accelerator modules are there when you want to sharpen fundamentals.
No. Elite is for foot and ankle surgeons doing MIS, or serious about starting. Most members are podiatric surgeons (DPMs), and orthopedic foot and ankle surgeons, MD or DO, are just as welcome. This community cares about the cases you want to book, not the letters after your name.
Everything you need to start is day one: the full 8-module MIFAS Accelerator, the Thursday live calls and recordings, the community, the 2,000+ case library, a curated library of 200+ studies on MIS outcomes, and 12 years of op notes and billing protocols. Deeper layers open up the longer you stay: the Master Class Vault at 3 months, advanced coursework at 6 months, and Dr. Stephen Isham's MIS demonstration footage plus our International MIFAS conference sessions at 12 months. Annual members get all of it on day one, no waiting.
Locked for as long as you stay a member, even after seat 101 pays $297. Leave and rejoin later, and you pay the rate at that time. That's the whole mechanic. No fine print.
Anytime, right from your account. No contract, no call to sit through, no retention script. You keep everything you learned.
No. The Accelerator starts at the foundations: soft tissue, hammertoes, lesser metatarsals, bunions, bandaging and splinting. And you'll watch live as experienced members work through advanced cases. The same goes if you've only dabbled through a device rep's system. You don't need any prior training with me to start. You start exactly where you are. The community meets you there.
Elite is the online membership: weekly live mentorship, the community, the library, the Accelerator curriculum. The MIS Intensive is the full certification pathway, with small-group cadaver labs and the ABMSP board track, and it includes Elite membership. If you want the complete pathway, start with Intensive. If you want the community, start here.
Let us help you finally implement and perform MIS cases with confidence. 100 founding chairs at $197, locked for as long as you stay. Then the rate is $297.
Only 32 founding seats left. Cancel anytime. No contract. 30-day 100% money-back guarantee.
See you Thursday. Dr. TJ Ahn
