Bunions
Bunions are bone deformities at the big toe joint, causing pain and mobility issues. Our podiatrists offer conservative treatments like padding, orthotics, and physical therapy, as well as surgical correction for severe cases. We focus on relieving pressure, preventing progression, and restoring function through personalized care plans.
Diabetic Foot Care
Diabetic foot care addresses nerve damage and circulation issues to prevent infections and amputations. We provide regular check-ups, wound care, and education on foot protection. Our team emphasizes early intervention and customized strategies to maintain foot health for diabetic patients.

Heel pain treatment includes non-invasive therapies like stretching, orthotics, and shockwave therapy. We diagnose underlying causes such as plantar fasciitis or heel spurs and develop targeted plans to reduce inflammation and improve mobility without surgery.

I was extremely pleased with his whole bedside manner and how much he listens to you and actually cares about what you're saying. His front desk girls are so pleasant & courteous every time I go! I highly recommend seeing Dr. Frank for any kind of foot or ankle problem, you won't be disappointed!

Only went once and that was enough. Dr. F was pleasant, but I was billed $360 for a night split! After insurance I am on the hook for $95. I could and should have bought one online for $35. I called the billing office and was told they could not adjust the cost and that part of the increase in cost is the total care I received. Even though I was also billed for an office visit and the x-rays. Next time I will look for another Dr and ask about costs before hand.
