Dr.Artis was so amazing. After going to two other podiatrists who gave me no support or hope, Dr. artis made me feel like there can be change for me. She was so patient, kind and informative. I’m actually excited to go back and get my results.
Toenail fungus is one of the most common conditions treated at Healthy Feet Podiatry’s Upper East Side location and one of the most undertreated, with patients cycling through OTC nail lacquers and home remedies for years before seeking the prescription-level care that actually clears the infection. The Upper East Side’s active, health-conscious population regular gym users at Equinox and SoulCycle, swimmers at local fitness centers, yoga practitioners, and weekend athletes using Central Park’s running paths creates consistent dermatophyte exposure through the shared warm, moist environments these facilities generate. At Healthy Feet Podiatry on the Upper East Side, our podiatrists provide laboratory-confirmed onychomycosis diagnosis using nail clipping for PAS staining or fungal culture, prescribe the appropriate treatment based on organism, severity, and patient health status, and monitor treatment response at structured follow-up intervals providing the specialist standard of care that the Upper East Side’s medically sophisticated patient population deserves.
At Healthy Feet Podiatry’s Upper East Side location, toenail fungus treatment incorporates the full clinical spectrum prescription topical antifungal lacquers for mild presentations, oral terbinafine or itraconazole for moderate-to-severe infections, laser treatment for patients preferring a drug-free alternative or those not candidates for systemic therapy, and professional nail debridement at each visit to reduce infected nail burden and improve treatment penetration. We treat concurrent athlete’s foot simultaneously, provide shoe decontamination guidance specific to the patient’s footwear habits, and implement a post-clearance maintenance protocol to protect against reinfection. For Upper East Side patients managing multiple health conditions diabetes, inflammatory arthropathy, immunosuppression we coordinate toenail fungus treatment with awareness of systemic medical complexity, selecting antifungal agents and monitoring protocols appropriate for each patient’s complete health picture.
