Diabetic Foot Care
Individuals with diabetes are more prone to develop foot problems. Even everyday concerns can rapidly worsen and lead to serious consequences. These complications often occur when there is nerve damage, commonly known as diabetic neuropathy. There can also be loss of feeling with accompanying burning and tingling pain in your feet. Poor blood flow and changes in the appearance or shape of your feet may contribute to these problems. Preventative care is essential! Most insurance carriers will cover services provided in our office related to Diabetes.
Wound Care
Non-healing and chronic wounds are often associated with diabetes and circulatory problems. They can be painful, upsetting, and even limb threatening. Even with good care, they can be very difficult to heal. Whatever the cause, it’s important to diagnose chronic wounds early so they can be treated promptly. In addition to preventitive care, our doctors are highly trained and experienced wound care specialists. We have access to the most current and modern techniques to heal your wound. Our doctors work closely with other specialists and local wound care centers to provide you with the best care possible. A wound that is not healing is getting worse every day. Do not delay in seeking treatment!
Ingrown Nails
Ingrown toenails are a very common problem affecting primarily the nails of the great toes. This problem can occur at any age from children to senior citizens. They are caused by an abnormal shape or thickening of the nail plate that causes the growth of the edge of the nail into the tender skin of the toe. The abnormal pressure caused by an ingrown toenail may result in a break in the skin, causing inflammation and infection. Our doctors can provide comprehensive treatment for ingrown nails and all other nail deformities including fungal infections. Long-term mangement by permanent surgical correction of ingrown nail deformities is a time-tested and highly successful procedure. Don't live with the pain of an ingrown nail!
Heel Pain
National studies have shown that the number one reason for an individual to seek the services of a foot specialist is heel pain. It is both common and easily treated. Our doctors follow a well-established program for treatment of heel pain that will relieve your pain, return you to activity, and help prevent recurrences or relapses. Although most heel pain is caused by an overuse injury called plantar fasciitis, our doctors are well-versed in the treatment of all causes including Achilles tendonitis, nerve injury, and heel spurs. Don't suffer another day!
Warts
Warts are benign soft tissue growths that are caused by the human papilloma (HPV) virus. They are simple to diagnose. but sometimes very difficult to treat. Warts occur primarily in children and adolescents, but can also be found in any age group. Our doctors use a combination of proven traditional and modern techniques to treat these painful skin lesions. If there is any question about the appearance of a skin growth, biopsy can readily be performed in our office. Our doctors work closely with the dermatologists and plastic surgeons in our community to provide you with the best possible care.

Modern surgical techniques and anesthesia have greatly simplified and improved the art and science of reconstructive foot surgery. Relief of your foot pain has never been easier!
