Diabetic Foot Care
Our diabetic foot care program addresses neuropathy, poor circulation, and ulcer risks through regular checkups and specialized treatment. Certified specialists provide preventive care, wound management, and therapeutic shoe programs to reduce amputation risks. Patients receive education on daily foot maintenance and early complication detection.

We perform bunion corrections, hammertoe repairs, and Morton's neuroma treatments using advanced surgical techniques. Procedures focus on pain relief, improved mobility, and structural correction for long-term functionality. Minimally invasive options are available for faster recovery and reduced scarring.

When I went for my pre-operative appointment, I was told I need a foot protector ankle boot in order to take a shower. First I was told it was $30, then when I went to pay for it, it was $40. I found the same thing online for $15.99 so I called and tried to return it and I was told I could not. It was unused and still in the box, as I did not have my surgery yet. I would suggest not buying these items from them and going online where they are readily available at a much cheaper price.

My sister broke her foot and was very fortunate to have Dr Matthew Modugno assigned as her surgeon. Not only is he an amazing surgeon, but the kindness, information, and help he has shared post surgery, has been exceptional. The office staff are very compassionate and helpful as well. They have made a difficult situation as positive as possible. We highly recommend this group!

TERRIBLE bedside manner from this Dr. Waited to be seen in this place for an hour PAST our initial visit time. Had an emergency situation and was the only practice that could see us day of. but I for sure will not be returning or recommending to anybody else. Myself and the person I was with had masks on, our young child did not because he didn't meet the age requirement and also has medical condition which prevents him from wearing one.
Usually we would leave him home but could not during this time. Realistically what 2yr old would keep a mask on in a waiting room for Over AN HOUR to begin with? Nobody said anything to us for our entire time spent there until the dr came into the room and the first thing out of his mouth was him yelling at us to get out of the building. RIDICULOUS AND UNPROFESSIONAL.
