Services

Non-surgical Care

Our non-surgical specialists offer customized treatment plans utilizing injections, orthotics, braces, and physical therapy to address foot and ankle conditions. This approach prioritizes recovery without operations, focusing on pain management and mobility restoration. Patients receive comprehensive education about treatment options and home care strategies to optimize outcomes.

Ankle Arthroscopy

This minimally invasive procedure cleans and repairs ankle joints through small incisions, accelerating recovery times while maintaining surgical effectiveness. Patients benefit from reduced scarring, quicker rehabilitation, and immediate postoperative mobility compared to traditional open surgery. Our surgeons employ advanced imaging techniques for precise joint assessment and treatment.

Sports Medicine

Specialized treatment programs address sports-related foot and ankle injuries ranging from acute trauma to chronic overuse conditions. Our fellowship-trained specialists develop sport-specific recovery plans for professional athletes, collegiate teams, and recreational enthusiasts. The practice maintains partnerships with local sports organizations for comprehensive injury prevention and performance optimization.

Trauma Treatment

Board-certified trauma specialists manage complex fractures, tendon ruptures, and ligament injuries with 24/7 emergency room availability. Treatment protocols emphasize rapid stabilization, advanced reconstruction techniques, and coordinated rehabilitation for optimal functional recovery following severe foot and ankle injuries.

Regenerative Medicine

Our regenerative programs utilize cutting-edge biological treatments including PRP therapy, stem cell injections, and amniotic fluid treatments to accelerate tissue healing. These non-surgical options stimulate natural repair mechanisms for chronic tendonitis, arthritis, and soft tissue injuries while minimizing recovery times and avoiding surgical risks.

I have spent many many years looking for an foot surgeon. No more looking I found him Dr. Warby! From the phone call to get an appointment to walking out from the visit super amazing, Dr Warby had many many ideas of simple ways to treat my issues

Easy to make appointments, prompt professional care. I went DR. Warby for a second opinion as to my foot issues. He took the time to go over everything that was happening with my foot. He explained the options I had to address my issues both from the prior doctors diagnosis as well as what he recommended. I left my original appointment believing that I was not going to be able to be helped and would suffer for the rest of my days.

I felt like maybe there could be a way to get this fixed and move on with my life. I would recommend him to anyone who has a new foot or ankle issue along with those like myself who have not found the right specialist to deal with our individual issues.

Dr Warby has been nothing short of amazing. He has incredible bedside manor and has fixed another doctors mistakes. He continues my care with such comfort and makes sure every detail is known. I am thankful to finally have a doctor that knows and cares about what they are doing. His staff in his office are all so sweet and make every visit feel so welcoming. If you choose Dr Warby for your doctor, you will not regret it!

My husband had been having problems with his foot for about a year now. He called Dr Warbys office and was able to get in right away. After being seen by the doctor he was able to confirm the plantar fasciitis and also found he had a ripped tendon. Got him into surgery, he said his recovery time would be about 6 weeks but my husband feels it was much less. the scars heeled so well. you can barely see them.

I would recommend Dr Warby for any other foot, ankle problems. he was amazing and so professional. His staff was also great and accommodating. Thank you to Dr Warby my husbands foot is relieved of pain and he is able to walk without anymore problems.

We took our 11 year old to Dr Warby after she broke all the bones in her ankle while skateboarding. We had previously been referred to another doctor, who wasn't able to see her for almost a week. I'm so glad I made the decision to call Dr Warby as she required immediate surgery. He was able to get her scheduled for the following day, and everything went well. He was very comforting to a scared child and everything has healed up great. We're getting ready for round 2, and she's no longer afraid. We know she's in good hands!
