Services
Diabetic Foot Care
Our diabetic foot care services focus on preventing and managing complications like neuropathy and ulcers. We provide regular screenings, wound care, and personalized treatment plans to reduce amputation risks. Patients benefit from early intervention and education on maintaining foot health.
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are designed to correct biomechanical issues and alleviate pain from conditions like plantar fasciitis. Using digital gait analysis, we create tailored inserts for improved comfort and mobility during daily activities.
Bunion Surgery
Bunion surgery corrects deformities at the base of the big toe, relieving pain and restoring function. Our minimally invasive techniques ensure faster recovery and long-term relief for patients with severe or persistent symptoms.
Shockwave Therapy
Extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) treats chronic heel pain and tendon injuries by stimulating natural healing. This non-invasive option reduces reliance on medication and accelerates recovery for conditions like plantar fasciitis.
Pediatric Foot Care
We address childhood foot issues such as flat feet and gait abnormalities. Early intervention ensures proper development and prevents long-term mobility problems through conservative treatments like orthotics and physical therapy.

Dr. Amit Raj and the staff ankleNfoot centers are helpful, pleasant to work with and did a great job. Follow up appointments are excellent and I feel good that my foot injury will recover quickly. Free parking out front is a bonus too.

I dislocated my pinky toe and found Ankle N Foot Center through ZocDoc because they accepted my insurance. My entire experience with Dr. Amit Raj, his assistant, Dr. Christina, and the staff was wonderful and extremely positive. Dr. Amit Raj and Dr. Christina were incredibly patient and relaxed while treating me and made me feel comfortable and at ease. I only wish they specialized in more than ankle and feet so I could go to them for general doctor checkups : I hope I don't have to return in the future with another dislocated toe, but if I do I will be calling Dr. Raj!

Dr. Raj was amazing! I had such a phobia of the podiatrist, but he was so understanding and really helped me through my procedures.

Report
Dr. Raj allowed me to wear shoes again. I had been struggling to walk and couldn't manage most shoes due to severe pain in my little toe. An orthopedic surgeon diagnosed a pressure sore, but after 2 weeks of removing a callous and wearing a variety of aids, I could still not manage to walk normally nor wear most shoes. Dr. Raj correctly diagnosed a wart under the pressure sore and was able to remove it after a single treatment. Thankfully I was back to normal after about 2 more weeks!

I highly recommend this place, Ankle and Foot Centers. They did not only give me a service, they truly saved my life. After a long and painful period of more than 3 years dealing with problems with my toe nails growth. I was experiencing pain in everyday things like walking. I was in pain all day and night, I was really having a bad time. I had 3 different diagnostics form 3 different doctors before and none of them had worked until I met Dr. Sarantopoulos.
She treated my case with great respect, knowledge, attention, amazing empathy and care. She had the best tools to decide what to do different from the past and advised me to have surgery and took my toe nails off. It was a scary situation for me but I trusted her and she didn't let me down! After surgery and the care instructions that Dr. Sarantopoulos gave me, my toenails finally grew back healthy. It's been one year already from this and I am grateful everyday for having crossed ways with this great physician that saved my life. Thank you Dr. Sarantopoulos!
