Foot and Ankle Surgery/Podiatry
Podiatric surgeons diagnose, treat and prevent problems of the foot and ankle. They use non-surgical and surgical treatment options to ensure the best care possible, and coordinate care with our rehabilitation specialists and your primary care provider.

Some common ailments Podiatric Foot & Ankle Surgeons treat:

  • tendon strains, tears or ruptures
  • foot and ankle fracture and dislocations
  • sprains and ligament tears
  • bunion deformity
  • hammertoe
  • heel pain
  • foot, ankle, and lower leg pain
  • arthroscopy
  • arthritis
  • flat foot
  • neuroma and nerve problems
  • diabetic foot and ankle related problems
  • foot and ankle deformities
  • infections and wound problems
  • pediatric or adolescent foot and ankle disorders
  • revision or 2nd opinion

If surgery is required, your Podiatric Foot and Ankle Surgeon is fully credentialed at a Fairview Hospital.

Specialized Training
Podiatric surgeons complete a four-year undergraduate degree and four years of Podiatric Medical College resulting in a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (D.P.M.) degree. In addition, podiatric surgeons complete a three-year surgical residency with an emphasis on elective and reconstructive surgery of the foot and ankle, including arthroscopy and diabetic limb salvage. Our podiatric surgeons are up-to-date on the latest procedures and trends in foot and ankle surgery, and work closely with our sports medicine team to ensure the best possible care.
