Podiatry

When you have foot pain, it’s hard to think about much else. Foot and ankle problems can happen for any number of reasons—genetics, disease, your body’s biomechanics, injury, your lifestyle or just wearing the wrong footwear.

Talking with an Allina Health podiatrist can start you on the road to better, less-painful mobility. He or she can identify what’s causing you discomfort in your foot or ankle, and will work with you on a solution to get you back to healthier feet, ready to take you where you want to go in life.

Who is a podiatrist?

A podiatrist is a doctor who specializes in diagnosing and treating diseases or injuries of the foot and ankle. Allina Health podiatrists use the latest innovations in treatments and technologies to help you heal. While we always consider conservative, or non-surgical, treatments first, our podiatrists have extensive training in foot and ankle surgery.

  • old and new foot or ankle injuries
  • sports injuries 
  • arthritis
  • bunions
  • hammertoes
  • painful flat or high arched feet
