More about Dr. Gary Lam, DPM
After four years of private practice in Southern California, it is my pleasure to return to the Bay Area and continue practicing at San Francisco Foot & Ankle Group. I am a well-trained Podiatric Surgeon and Certified Wound Specialist. Of course, one of my special interests is diabetic wound care / limb preservation since I am a Certified Wound Specialist. I am also interested in Biomechanic related foot problems. I am originally from Hong Kong and obtained a bachelors of science degree in Molecular Cell Biology at University of California, Berkeley. Then, I graduated from California College of Podiatric Medicine in 2005. Afterwards, I completed my three years surgical residency program at VA Palo Alto Healthcare System. The residency program also affiliates with Stanford University Medical Center and Kaiser San Jose Hospital. Other than practicing as a podiatrist in United States, I am a Consultant for the Bestol Footcare which is a company located in China. In my spare time, I enjoy watching movies and traveling with my family. I am fluent in Cantonese and English.
