Podiatry and General Well-Being

At Elite Podiatry, we recognize that healthy feet and legs are key to an overall sense of well-being. Our approach to patient care concentrates on foot and leg care while taking into consideration all aspects of the patient’s health. We coordinate our patients care with other specialists when their expertise is called for, including dermatologists, orthopedic surgeons, endocrinologists, general practitioners and others.

Proper care of the feet and legs is important to health at every age. Elite Podiatry can help with proper foot and leg alignment in young patients, skin and nail care for people of any age, improved athletic performance and recovery from injuries, and the foot and leg problems that arise with aging and diseases such as diabetes.

Foot Care and Skin Care

Elite Podiatry treats a variety of skin and nail conditions that are common on the feet. Warts, calluses, corns and nail fungus infections can cause discomfort and embarrassment. In-grown nails can interfere with normal activities and exercise routines. Keeping the skin and other soft tissues of the legs and feet healthy contributes to good overall health and maintenance of an active lifestyle.

Podiatry and Aging

Elite Podiatry can help with many of the discomforts associated with aging and chronic diseases such as diabetes. Proper nail and skin care is crucial to maintaining an active lifestyle as patients get older. Circulatory problems associated with diabetes can lead to complications such as chronic infections if not attended to by a competent specialist.

Proper care of the feet and legs is important to every individual’s health, regardless of age, level of physical activity, or the presence of other diseases or conditions. Call 248-996-1020 for an appointment today.

What is a Podiatrist?

Podiatry is a specialty of medicine that focuses on the care of the feet, ankles and lower legs. A podiatrist is a medical doctor with specialized training in all aspects of foot and leg health. A podiatrist may use non-surgical or surgical interventions to treat patients. Podiatrists are trained in surgery involving both the bones of the ankles and feet, as well as the skin and other soft tissues.

Podiatrists work with a broad spectrum of the population, including athletes with sports injuries, geriatric patients with foot and leg problems related to aging, diabetic patients with reduced circulation in their lower extremities, patients with nail problems or skin diseases, accident victims, and even patients with chronic lower back pain that could be relieved with better foot and leg alignment.
