Arthritis Treatment

Comprehensive arthritis care for feet and ankles. Advanced treatments to reduce pain, improve mobility, and preserve joint function.

Arthritis in the Feet and Ankles

Arthritis is a common condition that causes inflammation and degeneration of the joints in the feet and ankles. It can significantly impact mobility and quality of life. The feet contain 33 joints and bear significant weight throughout the day, making them particularly susceptible to arthritis.

We treat all types of arthritis affecting the lower extremities, including osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear arthritis), rheumatoid arthritis, and gout. Our comprehensive approach focuses on pain relief, joint preservation, and improved function.
