A podiatrist is the only health care professional whose practice focuses on the care of foot and ankle problems. Rockwood Clinic specialists care for people of all ages, treating a variety of foot problems. These include plantar fasciitis, ingrown toenails, hammertoes, heel pain and spurs, bunions, warts, corns, calluses, deformities and infections. They also treat foot problems associated with diabetes and other diseases. Orthotics are often prescribed to alleviate foot problems.
To diagnose a foot problem, podiatrists also order x rays and laboratory tests. The foot may be the first area to show signs of serious conditions such as arthritis and diabetes.
Additional services include care of sprains, fractures, infections and injuries of the foot, ankle and heel. Our podiatrists also set fractures and may also refer a patient for physical therapy services.
