We are the experts on foot and ankle care and should be the very first doctor you call when you experience pain or other problems with them. We help patients relieve or eliminate pain from Lees Summit, MO to Olathe, KS.
A doctor of podiatric medicine (DPM) is uniquely qualified by his or her education and training to diagnose and treat conditions affecting the foot and ankle. Podiatrists have received medical education and training comparable to MDs and DOs. We have four years of undergraduate education, four years of graduate education at one of eight accredited podiatric medical schools and two to four years of surgical residency and fellowship training. When medically necessary, podiatrists perform surgery to correct or remedy problems.
Fortunately, there is help available for those who suffer from heel pain, aching bunions, or even sports-related injuries that affect the foot and ankle. Here at Kansas City Foot and Ankle, we are a team of podiatrists, foot and ankle specialists, and surgeons who are dedicated to improving the function and comfort of your feet.
