Dr. Howard E. Friedman

Podiatry, Foot Surgery and High-Risk Foot Care

Our office provides professional foot care for children and adults. We treat routine and complicated foot conditions. Common conditions include warts, painful or infected ingrown toenails, skin conditions and heel pain.

Other conditions treated include foot and ankle sprains, injuries, broken bones and fractures. We provide expert surgical correction of painful bunion and hammertoe conditions using state-of-the art techniques. Surgery is performed as an out-patient procedure.

Expertise is provided in fabricating custom foot orthotics, using the semi-weight bearing or non-weight bearing casting technique to capture your foot's shape. We select from many different laboratories to fabricate the most appropriate orthotic for your condition.

 

High-Risk Foot Care

The office provides all aspects of foot care for our patients with diabetes. The most important service is to prevent any infections and amputations. This is done by providing meticulous care and becoming a partner with our patients to educate and prevent problems before they occur. We also measure for and provide extra-depth or custom molded shoes for qualifying patients.

We have a special interest in treating patients at high-risk for developing foot complications, and working together to avoid problems, such as ulcerations, infections and hospitalizations. High-risk patients include people with diabetes and neuropathy and/or peripheral vascular disease and any patient on hemodialysis. In addition, patients with peripheral neuropathy are also at high risk for developing foot wounds. If you or anyone you know falls into this category, please contact the office for an appointment.
