Diabetic Foot Care

Our specialized diabetic foot care program prevents complications through regular check-ups, wound management, and footwear education. Board-certified podiatrists use advanced diagnostic tools to monitor circulation and nerve function, providing early intervention for ulcers or infections. We offer same-day emergency appointments for acute injuries.

Lapiplasty Bunion Surgery

This 3D bunion correction procedure addresses deformities at the metatarsal root using minimally invasive techniques. Patients can walk with protection within three days, compared to traditional six-to-eight-week recovery periods. Our surgeons are the only providers in South Georgia trained in this technique.

MLS Laser Therapy

FDA-cleared MLS laser therapy reduces inflammation and accelerates healing for tendon injuries and chronic pain. Each eight-minute session delivers targeted light energy to stimulate cellular repair, with noticeable improvement typically seen within three treatments. Available at select locations.

Swift Wart Treatment

This microwave-based technology targets HPV-infected tissue without breaking the skin. Three-to-four sessions spaced four weeks apart stimulate immune response for lasting removal. Offered at Douglas, Fitzgerald, and Savannah locations with immediate post-treatment activity resumption.

Pediatric Foot Care

We address developmental foot issues from infancy through adolescence, including gait abnormalities and congenital deformities. Early intervention programs combine custom orthotics with growth monitoring to prevent long-term mobility problems. Parent education focuses on proper footwear selection and activity modification.

Dr. Legacki is my hero. I previously had a bunion removed by another podiatrist and was still experiencing a lot of pain. Dr. Legacki found that a pin in my toe had migrated and was being rejected. Dr. Legacki removed the pin, my foot was fixed, but I was still experiencing a lot of pain in my legs. Dr. Legacki advised me to visit a back and nerve physician because he felt the issues I was having might be related to my spine.

I did that and found that I had herniated discs and needed a spinal fusion. Thanks to Dr. Legacki, the source of my problem was identified and I am now able to walk with no pain. Dr. Legacki is a wonderful doctor. He takes a lot of time with his patients. His nurses and receptionist are equally as great. I would recommend his practice to everyone.

My husband and I have been seeing Dr Legacki at this location for about 2-3 years or more. He and his staff have always been compassionate and friendly in all aspects. We both love this place.

He's amazing and his staff. I went to him cause I couldn't bare the pain anymore in my feet and as of today he has done a amazing job and when it's all over I'm going to have brand new feet. The pain I have endured was so bad I couldn't hardly walk I would cry sometimes cause it was so bad. He's very good at what he does and I hope he's with the community for many many years to come. I trust and have full faith in him I will have no more pain when everything is complete. Thank you Dr. Legacki and Staff.

Dr Thomas Legacki is an amazing doctor! Truly cares about your entire health! He takes the time to explain the problem in terms you can understand. He gives you multiple ways you could treat the issue and informs you of all of the different treatment options so you can make the choice that is best for you. Excellent bedside manner! Very patient and understanding! He listens to all your questions and concerns.

His support staff are so nice, friendly and extremely helpful! They treat you like you are family. They are very patient and caring! I have been a patient for a while and have always had the best care possible each visit. Very easy to make a schedule and very little wait time. I will be a patient for life with Dr. Thomas Legacki!

This is the best foot doctor, that I have ever been too. I have gone to 6 foot doctors before this one. I was never informed of different things, till I came into this office, never had xrays done on my foot before. Dr. Thomas Legacki and his staff, treated me with the most respect and very helpful, to let me know every thing that they were going to do. I highly recommend Dr Thomas Legacki and his staff.

Dr. Brian Fallon takes such care of my feet! I have multiple problems with my feet, and thanks to him, I can still walk (mostly without pain!). He is always patient, caring and kind. His staff is great. I can't say enough good things about this practice.
