Services

Custom Orthotics

Custom orthotics are medical-grade shoe inserts designed to correct biomechanical imbalances and alleviate foot pain. Our 3D imaging technology creates personalized molds for arch support, treating conditions like plantar fasciitis, bunions, and flat feet. These devices redistribute pressure, improve gait, and prevent chronic issues. Patients experience reduced pain during daily activities and enhanced athletic performance. The process involves a comprehensive gait analysis and follow-up adjustments to ensure optimal fit and function.

Diabetic Foot Care

Specialized diabetic foot care prevents complications like ulcers, infections, and amputation. Our team educates patients on daily foot inspections, proper footwear, and circulation maintenance. Treatments include wound care, nerve damage management, and custom diabetic shoes. Regular check-ups monitor neuropathy progression and address minor injuries before they escalate. This proactive approach reduces hospitalization risks and preserves mobility for long-term health.

MLS Laser Therapy

MLS laser therapy uses dual wavelengths to reduce inflammation and relieve chronic foot pain. This non-invasive treatment accelerates healing for conditions like plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and sports injuries. Sessions last 10-15 minutes, with most patients noticing improvement after 1-3 visits. The therapy stimulates cellular repair without downtime, making it ideal for active individuals seeking rapid recovery from soft tissue injuries.

Lapiplasty Bunion Correction

Lapiplasty is a 3D bunion correction procedure that realigns bones and stabilizes joints using titanium plates. Unlike traditional bunionectomies, this technique addresses root causes like joint instability, preventing recurrence. Patients walk within days and return to regular shoes in 6-8 weeks. The procedure reduces pain, restores toe alignment, and improves balance for long-term foot health.

Swift Plantar Wart Treatment

Swift therapy uses microwave energy to target HPV-infected tissue, triggering the immune system to eliminate plantar warts. This 83% effective method requires 1-3 sessions with no home care needed. The treatment destroys warts painlessly, avoiding skin damage from outdated methods like salicylic acid. Patients resume normal activities immediately, with visible results within weeks.

I highly recommend going to Dr. Sunshein for any problems with your foot. I recently had bunion surgery on my left foot using the new Lapiplasty System. It is healing up fast and less pain than doing it the old way which I had done on my right foot 15 years ago. His staff if friendly and a special shout out to Cheryl who does wonders on scheduling your surgery and billing your insurance.

Met Dr. Sunshein for the first time today. The physician I had met previously in his office had moved away and he was taking over my care. I requested to meet with him and review my case before casting my orthotics. He was very through in reviewing what had previously been done. We reviewed the X-rays, how the foot should function and how mine isn't function the correct way. Discussed thoroughly the use of new orthotics I'll be cast for next week.

I appreciated the review of what was done and explanations of what the orthotics can do for me. Met the staff again and they were all very nice and professional. Thank you for a great first visit Dr. Sunshein!

Terrible experience working with the office staff. Incorrectly billed multiple times. Received letters threatening collection and reporting on my credit when my account has been OVERPAID for months. Have been working with billing for 4 months trying to get the overage refunded and billing errors corrected. As of today issues continue to be unresolved. This podiatrist does good work but it is not worth the trouble of dealing with his staff.

Dr Sunshein has been my podiatrist for several years and, in fact, has performed a rather rare surgery on my foot with great results. I now can walk without pain post-surgery. This is a big deal, as I used to be a distance runner and am still very active. Having a podiatrist one can trust and who remains in the cutting edge of the latest technology in foot care is very important to me. Dr Sunshein's MLS Laser is also a wonderful resource in healing torn foot and ankle tissue and broken bones.

I will add that Dr Sunshein is also very philanthropic and supports my foundation every year. His generosity of time and resources is deeply appreciated. I will never go elsewhere for my Podiatry needs.
