CANTON PODIATRY

My Approach:

I practice by the GOLDEN RULE! Do unto others as you'd have them to do. I treat all of my patients as if they were my family and friends, just click the testimonials section above and see for yourself. Thankfully, most foot and ankle ailments are resolved with conservative treatments and we only recommend surgery after conservative treatments have failed. We are also overly concerned about hygiene and utilize only sterile (autoclaved) instruments for our patients.
