Learn More About Our Podiatry Services
A podiatrist is a doctor who specializes in the medical diagnosis and treatment of foot problems. Common foot problems treated by podiatrists are bunions, heel pain, hammertoes, neuromas, ingrown toenails, warts, corns, and calluses.
Is Podiatry More Than Just Bunions?
Podiatrists take care of many foot-related injuries, including sprains, fractures, infections, and other trauma that occurs to the foot.
What Kind of Education is Required for Podiatry?
In addition to having an undergraduate degree, a person must attend a four-year medical school to become a podiatrist. After graduating from medical school, a podiatrist must be licensed by the state he / she practices in. One must also take national and state exams to become certified.
