According to one embodiment, a system may be provided for correcting a condition present in one or more bones of a patient’s foot. The system may have a cutting guide with a first bone engagement surface shaped to match a first contour on a first bone of the one or more bones, and a first guide feature that, with the first bone engagement surface overlying the first contour, is positioned to guide resection of the one or more bones as part of a surgical osteotomy for correcting the condition. The surgical osteotomy may be selected from a first group consisting of a bunion correction osteotomy, an Evans calcaneal osteotomy, and a medializing calcaneal osteotomy. The first bone may be selected from a second group consisting of a metatarsus, a cuneiform, and a calcaneus.
