Podiatric Medicine
Podiatric medicine is the study of the lower extremity. Our doctors have unique and specific training in disorders of the foot, ankle and lower leg. These skills are used to provide a thorough clinical evaluation and treatment plan. Your concern may be sore feet, conditions affecting muscles, joints, bones, circulation, skin conditions of the lower legs, neurological disease, injuries, and balance or walking disorders.
Our practice reaches out into community to include podogeriatrics, the treatment of foot problems of the elderly. We also have a special interest in sports medicine, diabetic foot conditions, and wound care.
