What services does a podiatrist provide?

Podiatrists diagnose and treat foot, ankle, and lower leg problems with services ranging from nail and skin care and custom orthotics to wound care, sports medicine, and surgery.

Do you offer non-surgical treatment for heel pain?

Yes. We offer custom orthotics, shockwave therapy, and RPW therapy, which help many patients with plantar fasciitis and heel spurs avoid surgery.

What is Lapiplasty?

Lapiplasty is a 3D bunion correction procedure that realigns the metatarsal bone at its base and secures it with titanium plates to address the root cause of the bunion.
