Post-op complications after ankle surgery

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice on this:

Five years ago, my dad was in a serious car accident that pretty much wrecked his ankle. Since then, he’s gone through five different surgeries, including one just recently. The real issue now is that the skin is stretched far too tight; the wound won't close up, and we're dealing with surface infections. It feels like we haven't made any real progress, even after five years...
He’s been treated at the Mayo Clinic by Dr. Anthony Tudor.

Here’s what the latest exam report says:

Clinical Exam: bone is clinically exposed through a small skin defect.

Diagnoses:
M25.99 Unspecified joint disorder - unspecified position

Surgical repair of distal right tibia fracture.
Post-traumatic right talocrural arthrosis.
Nov 23, 2009 Surgery: Corrective osteotomy of the distal right tibia with AO osteosynthesis.
Extraction of lateral tibial bone fragment (performed July 2010). Right tibia osteitis.
July 1, 2010. Extraction of right tibia bone fragment.

Conclusion/Treatment Plan:
Dressing changes required. Patient must be referred to a plastic surgeon for wound management and ongoing treatment.
Patient must strictly avoid any weight-bearing!
Orthopedic follow-up after plastic surgery consultation, or within 2 months at the latest.

It’s an incredibly complicated case, even if it doesn't sound like it. On top of this, his spine is a mess, and there's already a metal plate in his heel from the same leg. He’s had countless scans and tests...

So, here’s my question:
Where in Washington, D.C. should we go for this kind of procedure? Which hospitals handle these types of reconstructive plastic surgeries? Does anyone have recommendations for specific doctors or specialists? We don't have any connections in Washington, D.C., so I figured I'd ask here and hope for some guidance. Our first step would be getting a consultation and a second opinion to figure out if the surgery is actually viable or if it would just make things worse for his leg.

Thanks in advance.
If there are any doctors in this group, feel free to send me a PM.

Does anyone actually know which hospital in Washington, D.C. I should contact about seeing a plastic surgeon? 😢

You can find plastic surgery services at Bank of America and Johns Hopkins Hospital, along with a few other facilities in the Washington, D.C. area. However, those two seem to be the top tier, so it would be wise to check when your father might be able to snag an initial consultation.

If anyone else has had standout experiences with a specific surgeon or facility, feel free to reach out.

Good luck!

Best regards. 🙂

Thanks so much for the reply! Really appreciate it.

Any info at all would be great... things are looking pretty dire right now...
