Services
Custom Foot Orthotics
Custom foot orthotics are tailored medical devices designed to correct biomechanical issues like flat feet, plantar fasciitis, and bunions. We use plaster casting techniques to create personalized supports that improve alignment, reduce pain, and enhance daily function for adults and children. These devices prevent surgery and aid in post-injury recovery, ensuring long-term foot health.
Foot and Ankle Surgery
Our board-certified surgeons treat severe conditions through foot and ankle procedures, including bunion corrections, fracture repairs, and deformity corrections. We use minimally invasive techniques to reduce recovery time and ensure optimal mobility. Post-operative care includes physical therapy and follow-up to restore function and prevent complications.
Diabetic Foot Care
Diabetic foot specialists provide routine screenings and treatment to prevent ulcers, infections, and amputations. Services include nerve damage assessments, wound care, and orthotics to alleviate pressure. Regular check-ups help manage complications from diabetes, ensuring patients maintain foot health and avoid severe outcomes.
Sports Injury Treatment
Athletes receive rapid diagnosis and treatment for injuries like stress fractures and Achilles tendonitis. On-site x-rays and gait analysis guide interventions such as bracing, physical therapy, and activity modification. Our goal is to return patients to sports safely while preventing re-injury through biomechanical adjustments and footwear recommendations.
Pediatric Podiatry
Specialized care addresses childhood foot conditions, including flat feet, in-toeing, and gait abnormalities. Early intervention through orthotics, casting, and physical therapy promotes proper development. We also treat common issues like ingrown toenails and sports injuries, ensuring children maintain healthy mobility for active lifestyles.
