Sports Medicine and Foot and Ankle Trauma

The number of injuries occurring in the lower extremity is on the rise with the increased participation in sports activities.  Common athletic injuries include ankle sprains, heel pain, tendonitis, myositis, shin splints, stress fractures, and chondromalacia.  Many sports injuries are best treated with prevention by wearing appropriate shoe gear and possibly using orthotics to better control motion and eliminate excessive stress on the lower extremity.

Our doctors are available for trauma care 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Our doctors are trained to treat a variety of injuries including fractures, dislocations, torn ligaments, lacerations, and burns of the foot and ankle.  Periodically, we have found that seemingly minor injuries with lingering symptoms warrant further evaluation to rule out possible chronic underlying disorders.

Our doctors are well versed in sports medicine, and we treat recreational, amateur, and professional athletes.  We possess the latest knowledge in foot and ankle orthoses and the latest techniques in trauma care.
