Achilles Tendonitis
Pain and stiffness at the back of the heel or lower calf, common in runners. Our NYC podiatrists calm the inflammation and rebuild the tendon.
Ankle Fracture
A broken ankle bone from a fall, twist, or impact. We confirm it with in-office imaging and guide you through healing and recovery.
Ankle Sprain
Stretched or torn ankle ligaments after a roll or twist. We reduce swelling, restore stability, and help prevent the next sprain.
Athlete's Foot
An itchy, scaling fungal rash between the toes or on the soles. We clear the infection and help keep it from coming back.
Blisters
Fluid-filled friction sores from shoes or activity. We treat them safely and address the pressure points that cause them.
Bone Spurs Or Exostosis
A bony overgrowth that rubs or aches, often on the heel or midfoot. We relieve the pressure and treat the cause.
Bunion (Hallux Valgus)
A bony bump at the base of the big toe that grows and aches over time. We offer relief and correction, from padding to minimally invasive surgery.
Corns And Calluses
Thickened skin from repeated pressure or friction. We remove them comfortably and fix what is causing the rub.
Flat Feet
Low or collapsed arches that can strain the foot, ankle, or knee. We support the arch and ease the overload with custom orthotics and more.
Foot Fracture
A break in one of the foot's many small bones. We confirm it with imaging and set a clear path to full healing.
Foot Infections
Redness, warmth, swelling, or drainage that needs prompt care. We diagnose and treat foot infections before they spread.
Ganglion Cyst
A soft, fluid-filled lump on the top or side of the foot. We evaluate it and offer drainage or removal when needed.
Gout
Sudden, intense pain and swelling, often in the big toe joint. We manage the flare and help prevent the next one.
Hallux Limitus / Rigidus
Stiffness and pain in the big toe joint that worsens over time. We preserve motion and relieve pain, with surgery only when needed.
Hammertoe
A toe that bends or curls out of shape and rubs in shoes. We ease the pressure and straighten it, from padding to correction.
High-Arched Feet (Pes Cavus)
A high arch that shifts your weight and can cause pain or instability. We balance the foot and protect the pressure points.
Ingrown Toenail
A nail edge that digs into the skin, causing pain, redness, or infection. We treat it gently and prevent it from returning.
Metatarsalgia
Aching or burning pain in the ball of the foot. We offload the pressure and treat the underlying cause.
Morton's Neuroma
A pinched nerve between the toes that feels like a pebble or burning. We relieve it, including advanced options like cryosurgery.
Pediatric Foot Deformities
Foot and gait concerns in growing children. Our team evaluates and treats them early, with a gentle, family-friendly approach.
Peroneal Tendonitis
Pain along the outer ankle from irritated tendons. We settle the inflammation and rebuild strength and stability.

Sharp heel pain with your first steps in the morning that eases as you move. Our NYC podiatrists treat it, conservative care first.
Plantar Warts
Rough, painful growths on the sole caused by a virus. We remove them and ease the discomfort of walking.

Inner-ankle and arch pain from a strained tendon, a common cause of adult flatfoot. We support the arch and treat the tendon.
Pump Bump (Haglund's Deformity)
A bony bump at the back of the heel that rubs against shoes. We relieve the pressure and treat the deformity.
Sesamoiditis
Pain under the big toe joint from two irritated small bones. We offload the area and calm the inflammation.
Splinters & Foreign Bodies
Something lodged in the foot that hurts or risks infection. We remove it safely and treat the site.
