Specializing in Diabetic Foot Care and Limb Salvage
Diabetic care is essential in preventing complications like ulcers, infections, and amputations.

This specialized service brings advanced care to patients who can’t visit the office, helping preserve mobility and prevent further damage.
Providing Pediatric and Senior Foot Care With Compassion
Foot care isn’t one-size-fits-all. Children and seniors require unique approaches. We provide pediatric foot care that supports growing feet, and for older adults, we focus on conditions like arthritis, neuropathy, and fall prevention through our Falling Risk Program.

Sports injuries, Achilles tendinitis, neuromas, and sprains can severely impact your quality of life. Our podiatrist provides biologic treatment options and advanced rehabilitation plans to restore your movement and prevent re-injury.
A licensed podiatrist brings years of medical training and hands-on experience to properly treat complex foot and ankle issues. Self-treatment or delaying care can make problems worse.

How long does recovery take?
Expect a few weeks off your foot, then some time in a walking boot. Full recovery usually takes a few months, depending on the extent of the reconstruction and how your ankle responds. Physical therapy helps you get your strength back.
When can I drive again?
It depends on which ankle we treat. If it's your left, you may drive an automatic sooner. If it's your right, wait until you can brake safely and we give you the OK.
What happens if I put off surgery?
A loose ankle tends to keep spraining, causing repeated sprains and further damage inside the joint. Over time, that can lead to arthritis.
How can I get my home ready?
Set up a comfortable place to rest when you can safely reach your phone, medications, water, and other essentials. If possible, sleep on the main floor to avoid stairs while you are using crutches or a walker. Move rugs and cords out of the way to avoid tripping hazards. Consider a shower chair for safer bathing, and a friend to help with errands.
