Background

What happened in the Metro Tulsa Foot & Ankle Specialists data breach

Metro Tulsa Foot & Ankle Specialists reported a data security incident to the Vermont Attorney General on October 28, 2026. The Vermont Attorney General's Security Breach Notices table lists 6 Vermonters affected. This count covers Vermont residents only. The Vermont filing lists Social Security numbers, financial account codes, credit and debit account info and health records. In a Notice of Data Privacy Event posted on its website the same day, the company says that on or about July 29, 2026, it became aware of unusual activity in its network environment. The company says its investigation revealed that certain information may have been copied without authorization on July 30, 2026, and that it finished its review of the potentially impacted information on October 21, 2026.

The company's website notice says the information potentially impacted varies by individual but may have included name, address, date of birth, Social Security number, patient identification number, health insurance information, medical information and financial information. It says the company is notifying impacted individuals for whom it has a valid mailing address and offering them credit monitoring and identity protection services.
