What is podiatry?

Podiatry is the treatment of foot and ankle problems. The podiatrists at Nuvance Health understand the impact these problems can have on your quality of life. Our goal is to help get you back on your feet as soon as possible.

Minimally invasive foot and ankle surgery

Your podiatrist will work with you to find a suitable treatment. In addition to standard therapies, podiatrists offer minimal incision surgery (MIS).

MIS is an alternative to standard open surgical procedures. With MIS, there is decreased pain and less scarring than open surgical procedures. MIS may shorten your recovery period, allowing you to return to normal activities sooner. Ask your podiatrist if MIS is an option for you.
