Welcome to Our Practice
Many foot health issues can be effectively treated by the team, such as fractures, bunions, hammertoes, heel pain, Achilles tendon disorders, flat foot, ankle instability, athlete’s foot, toenail fungus, gout, ingrown toenails, and shin splints. More complex issues can also be successfully treated as well.
TWO PRIMARY CLINIC LOCATIONS are located in Springfield and Decatur, Illinois, five days a week. The primary clinics are equipped with advanced medical equipment and products to provide a wide array of podiatric services in one central location and to minimize inconvenience to patients. The following services are provided at the Foot and Ankle Center of Illinois:
The ADVANCED EXTREMITY IMAGING includes a world class Esaote O-scan MRI and CurveBeam PedCAT CT Scanner, as well as Digital X-rays, Ultrasound and Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) equipment that allow the team to provide immediate diagnosis without causing any inconvenience or discomfort.
The ILLINOIS LASER CENTER includes a Cutera Genesis Plus laser to provide laser services for Onychomycosis (fungus in the toenails and fingernails) and other cosmetic treatments. The Center also has a Cutting Edge MLS Laser that is used for post- operative treatments to reduce pain and swelling. This laser is used to treat all orthopedic pathologies, arthritic conditions, bursitis, athletic injuries, neuropathy, tendonitis, bruises, and trauma.
