What Is a Podiatrist?

A podiatrist is a physician who specializes in conditions that affect the foot and ankle including the lower legs. Podiatrists are often referred to as podiatric physicians or doctors of podiatric medicine and undergo similar educational programs as MDs and DOs including three-year surgical residencies. Many Podiatrists offer both conservative and surgical services including inpatient care to treat ailments and diseases of the foot and ankle. At the Brevard Health Alliance, our podiatry team focuses on outpatient, non-surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They are Board certified by the American Board of Podiatric Medicine and serve patients that experience all kinds of different foot problems. It is important that you visit us when you experience foot pain as it could be a sign of an underlying condition.

The Conditions Our Podiatrists Treat

In addition to the other services, Brevard Health Alliance provides, our foot and ankle doctors treat a wide variety of podiatric conditions in order to make our services as inclusive as possible. Your feet do a lot of work, probably more than you realize. Since they are always working, it is vital that they stay in good health. With our services, we can nurse your feet back to health and correct any outstanding conditions you may be experiencing. When you visit our Podiatrists, we will examine your lower legs, ankles, feet, and toenails. After an examination, we will discuss a treatment plan catered to you and your needs. If surgical intervention is appropriate, our team can also place a surgical consultation and help you find a surgeon in the area. Included in the conditions that our foot specialists treat are:

Diabetes-Related Conditions

Individuals with diabetes often experience foot problems caused by neuropathy and poor circulation. Our foot doctors can treat diabetic wounds and neuropathy while also providing regular foot check-ups.

Ulcers and Sores

Foot ulcers and sores are open areas on the foot that are usually accompanied by pain and discomfort. Our treatment team will come up with a plan to heal these unwanted areas.

Bunions and Hammertoes

Bunions and hammertoes are problems associated with the bones in your feet. Bunions occur when the joint at the big toe grows larger or is out of place. A hammertoe is a toe that does not bend in the correct direction. Without treatment, these conditions can progressively get worse.

Calluses

Calluses are thick and hardened areas of the skin on your feet. Calluses are often signs of another underlying problem. Our foot doctors will examine your skin and feet to determine the cause of your calluses.

Nail Disorders

Nail disorders such as fungal infections and ingrown toenails can cause pain and discomfort when walking or wearing shoes. Our doctors will identify the cause of your nail disorder and treat them appropriately.

Heel Spurs

Heel spurs occur as a byproduct of plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is inflammation of the tissue between your heels and your toes. When a spur, or bony projection, becomes present that is when it is called a heel spur.

Foot Deformities

We treat a variety of foot deformities including those caused by different types of arthritis such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis.

Sprains and strains are soft tissue injuries and often involve the ligaments in the foot or ankle. We can treat foot and ankle sprains and strains of different origins in our offices.

Sports-Related Injuries

Athletes are prone to injuring their feet and ankles. Our foot specialists can treat a variety of sports-related injuries including fractures, tears, and dislocations.
