Podiatry

feet Podiatric physicians and surgeons provide comprehensive medical and surgical care for a wide spectrum of foot and ankle conditions including common to complex disorders and injuries that affect people of all ages. Our board-certified foot and ankle specialists are uniquely qualified to detect the early stages of diseases that exhibit warning signs in the lower extremities, such as diabetes, arthritis and cardiovascular disease, and they manage foot conditions which may pose an ongoing threat to a patient’s overall health.

The feet are said to be the “mirror” of an individual’s overall health because severe progressive diseases (such as circulatory disorders, hypertension and rheumatoid arthritis) often reveal their earliest symptoms in the lower extremities. There are more than 300 known podiatric ailments, affecting anything from the bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, tendons, nerves and skin. Patients experiencing foot discomfort should be diagnosed and treated by a podiatric physician or surgeon. Personalized treatment plans may include a number of treatment measures- ranging from minor procedures to complex reconstructive foot surgery.

Some common foot problems that can be treated are:

  • Heel Pain and Plantar Fasciitis
  • Ankle Sprains and Strains
  • Diabetic Foot Care
  • Athlete’s Foot
  • Arthritis
  • Tendonitis
  • Ingrown Nails
  • Neuromas and Pinched Nerves
  • Flat Feet
  • Bunions
  • Hammertoes
  • Corns and Calluses
  • Warts
  • Gout
