| ULTRASOUND |
We use the latest technology to diagnose problems of the foot.
Our Toshiba Nemio Ultrasound machine gives clear pictures of everything
from the nerves, ligaments, tendons, and even joints as they move.
When needed, we use ultrasound to insure that an injection is placed precisely where
needed for optimal results. More information

DIABETIC FOOT CARE
|
Diabetes can be a very threatening diagnosis to those who fail to
respect the foot problems it can cause. Our goal is to educate
each patient about precautions, general foot care, and when they should
be seen to prevent trouble. In some of the more complicated situations,
our doctors can help to heal ulcers or correct many deformities of
the foot and ankle that occur as diabetes progresses. More

SPORTS MEDICINE |
Our doctors and/or their children are and have been competitive athletes.
There are a significant number of sports injuries that can affect
the foot and ankle. We understand the footcare needs of exercisers, from weekend warriors to the competitive
athletes. Our knowledge of the training involved to excel in their
sports, and of the causes and most up-to-date treatments of sports-related foot and
ankle injuries, lets us help our athlete-patients both to recover quickly and to avoid future injuries. More
