1) Good foot care always begins with conservative care. One of my specialties is biomechanics, which is the study of motion in living things. This science is applied to faulty foot mechanics in the form of special strappings, shoe gear and orthotics (prescription arch supports) for conditions such as plantar fasciitis (sometimes called heel spur syndrome), arthritis, and foot problems associated with diabetes.

2) I am Board Certified in foot surgery. When conservative care for foot problems fails, then surgery may be necessary. I perform most forefoot operations including bunionectomies, hammertoes and removal of neuromas. I also perform selected rearfoot procedures including surgery for plantar fasciitis and heel spurs.

3) Diabetic patients are subject to a number of foot problems—neuropathy (numbness of feet and/or foot pain), breakdown of joints and infected ulcerations. With the use of appropriate medical biomechanics and surgical care, patients with diabetic foot problems can be brought back to health and then maintained.

1) In-office treatment of painful and chronic ingrown toenails, and fungal (thickened) nails.

2) Wide range of surgical and non-surgical techniques and procedures for various foot disorders and disformities. Orthotic and shoe therapy ranging from non-custom to custom braces.

3) Alternative therapies, such as homeopathy, in-office, working with accupuncture and physical therapists via appropriate referral system to specialized doctors.
