My Focus & Approach
As a dedicated chiropodist, I believe that optimal foot and ankle health underpins whole-body well-being. I take a holistic, biomechanical, and patient-centered approach—combining education, manual therapies, orthotic support, advanced modalities, and when needed, surgical techniques—to help patients get back on their feet pain-free and functioning at their best.
