My surgeon seemed super pumped that I got this type of fracture. Apparently you have to twist your ankle in a very specific way to get a fracture like this. He told me all about it and he was so enthusiastic. He got even more excited when I asked him to take pics of the inside of my foot because I wanted to see it.
His enthusiasm has made the experience less terrible lol.
Surgical tech, here - those types of surgeons are an absolute blast to work with, and tend to be the most skilled.
