We bring together health professionals with advanced training and a wealth of experience in treating all kinds of foot and ankle pain.
Common Foot and Ankle Issues
Carrying you through life can take a toll on your feet and ankles. When you're standing, your feet and ankles support your entire body weight. Activities like running place up to four times that much force on them. And in many parts of your feet and ankles, only a thin layer of skin protects your bones and nerves. All of this makes them vulnerable to issues.
Common work- and sports-related injuries, fractures and deformities include:
- Achilles tendon rupture.
- Ankle and foot arthritis.
- Ankle and foot trauma.
- Bunions, hammertoes and claw toes.
- Congenital defects and acquired deformities.
- Fractures.
- Heel pain.
- Ligament sprains and tears.
- Pediatric and newborn deformities and injury.
- Plantar fasciitis.
- Post-traumatic reconstruction.
- Stress fractures.
- Tendonitis.
The inner workings of these joints are complicated. Your feet alone are home to 66 joints and a quarter of all your bones. So diagnosing and treating foot and ankle problems requires very specialized knowledge and skills.
That's exactly what our highly trained foot and ankle care team brings to your treatment. Our specialists have extensive experience treating problems from ingrown toenails and bunions to gout and clubfoot. We treat patients of all ages, from babies and teens to older adults.
Whenever possible, we use non-invasive treatments such as physical therapy. Still, sometimes an operation is your best option. In that case, our surgeons use the latest methods. These reduce the time you have to spend in the hospital, if any. And after surgery, our physical therapists help improve pain and movement.
