If you suffer from a foot problem, you are not alone. Four out of five adults eventually experience some type of foot problem. The human foot is a complex structure, consisting of 26 bones and 33 joints in addition to multiple arches and numerous tendons, muscles and ligaments. Since this delicate structure has to support the weight of the human body, it is no wonder people suffer from such a variety of foot related problems. Our podiatrists are well trained and qualified to help you get relief from your discomfort. Our office staff is courteous and knowledgeable and available to assist you from the moment you first contact us. Our areas of Surgical Expertise include the following:
Ambulatory Surgery
Our ambulatory surgical center is designed with convenience in mind while providing a safe and affordable alternative to hospital-based surgery. Our surgical facility maintains the latest in medical technology, while providing our patients a comfortable, safe, and relaxing atmosphere. The facility is certified by the State of Georgia and a national accreditation association. Our patients come to the office approximately one week prior to their scheduled date of surgery to complete the necessary forms and consents and have the appropriate examinations and laboratory tests performed. Once everything has been satisfactorily completed and reviewed, the surgery date is confirmed. On the day of surgery, the patient is accompanied by a friend or family member to drive them home. The patient is escorted by our staff to the surgical suite. Depending on the type of procedure to be performed, the patient may be given a mild sedation which is administered by a qualified anesthesiologist or certified registered nurse anesthetist. After surgery, the patient is monitored in recovery until time to go home. After recovery, the doctor discusses the case and reviews the postoperative X-rays with the patient. General PodiatryEach of our doctors is a strong advocate of preventive medicine and gives freely of his time for patient education. We stress that patients of all ages should be aware of podiatric health, and others - like athletes and diabetics need to be acutely aware of potential problems.
