Foot and Ankle

If you’re experiencing foot pain, life can be miserable, especially if you have a bunion, trigger toe, a stubborn injury or flat foot deformity. These can lead to difficulty in walking, affecting your daily life and sports activities. Some patients have arthritis or nerve damage resulting from trauma.
