Comprehensive Foot and Ankle Care
From conservative therapies to complex reconstructive surgery, our practice offers a full spectrum of treatments tailored to your lifestyle, goals, and healing stage. Whether you need quick relief from heel pain or guidance through a major procedure, your care team will walk you through all your options during your consultation.
Foot and Ankle Surgery
When conservative care isn’t enough, surgical solutions can correct structural issues, restore function, and end chronic pain. Our surgical services include heel spur surgery, foot surgery, foot screws, surgical treatment of adult-acquired flatfoot, metatarsal surgery, ankle surgery, surgical management of chronic ankle sprains, arthroscopy of the ankle and subtalar joints, surgery of hindfoot and ankle deformities, ankle fusion arthrodesis, and leg length and deformity correction.
Bunion and Toe Surgery
Painful bunions, hammertoes, and arthritic joints can make every step uncomfortable. Specialized procedures target these problems precisely, including hallux hammertoe surgery, bunion surgery, Keller bunionectomy, surgical correction of tailor’s bunion deformity, bone spur surgery of the toes, surgical correction of soft corns, and surgical correction for arthritis in the big toe joint.
Soft Tissue and Nerve Procedures
Lumps, growths, and nerve pain often respond beautifully to targeted procedures. Our team performs chemical neurolysis for the treatment of neuromas, surgical removal of giant cell tumors, surgical excision of plantar fibromas, surgical excision of the ganglion, and neuroma surgery.
Nonsurgical Treatments
Many patients find lasting relief without surgery thanks to advanced technology and personalized therapy plans. Options include calf muscle stretching, toenail fungus treatment, and functional and accommodative foot orthotics. We also offer MLS Laser Therapy—an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment with an 85–90% efficacy rate for pain, inflammation, and tissue repair—plus in-office physical therapy, fungal nail laser treatment, and Nano Flex regenerative injections.
