Description

Dr. Smith has built a network of specialists with whom he consults and who are also available to his patients. Because of this, we can coordinate all aspects of treatment for even the most serious cases. Although we provide many aspects of foot care, we specialize in areas that affect a growing number of people, such as high-risk patients.

Our practice has grown, and continues to grow, through the friends and family members of our existing patients. If you have a friend or family member who might like to learn about our practice, please provide us with their contact information.

Venous stasis ulcerations occur in areas where the venous circulation is poor. Venous circulation is the blood flow that returns to the heart in the veins. Varicose veins are abnormal veins that do not allow normal blood flow back to the heart. As the veins become more and more damaged, there is a pooling of fluid that accumulates in the feet and ankle. This swelling of the tissue, over time will cause damage to the skin, and can result in open sores or ulceration. These ulcerations tend to weep a clear fluid, have a reddish base and become infected easily.

Our practice remains at the forefront of innovative medical techniques. Once we pinpoint the exact nature of your problem with x-rays and tests, we develop an individual treatment plan to fit your lifestyle and preference.
