I checked out Zocdoc’s website and was pleasantly surprised. I read a lot of positive reviews from most of their providers...My only regret is that I didn’t make an appointment sooner.

Who is a podiatrist?

Podiatrists are qualified medical professionals with a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) degree. They are proficient in preventing, diagnosing, and managing conditions that impact the lower extremities and feet. They can help manage pain and aid in recovery. Podiatrists also treat problems in the feet that arise from a host of chronic conditions, such as diabetes or cardiovascular problems. Apart from injuries to the foot, podiatrists routinely treat common foot-related concerns such as bunions, hammertoes, heel spurs, plantar fasciitis, and Achilles tendonitis. 


Podiatrists treat various foot conditions and specialize in areas like surgery, wound care, sports medicine, diabetes, pediatric care, and general foot care. Experts recommend visiting a podiatrist to address foot pain or receive a foot examination, as they can safely eliminate hard skin and offer suitable footwear suggestions.


Podiatrists can order diagnostic tests such as X-ray imaging, MRI scans, blood tests, and so on to determine the treatment plan. They may prescribe medication, recommend orthotics, and even perform surgeries. 


Podiatrists work in various settings, including private practice, hospitals, the armed forces, and municipal health departments.


What education and training do podiatrists have?

Podiatrists, or DPMs, are physicians but do not attend a traditional medical school. Instead, they complete a four-year program at a podiatry school. There are nine accredited colleges of podiatry in the country. At a podiatry school, aspiring podiatrists learn how our feet muscles, nerves, and bones help us move. Upon graduation from a podiatric medical school, they must complete a three-year hospital-based residency program in podiatric medicine and surgery. Once they complete their residency program, many choose to get certified by taking additional examinations.


Common conditions treated by podiatrists

Podiatrists care for individuals of all ages, addressing a wide range of foot and ankle conditions. Some of the most common conditions they treat include:

  1. Fractures and sprains – Podiatrists frequently treat foot and ankle injuries, including fractures and sprains. They also specialize in sports medicine, helping athletes recover from foot-related issues and offering guidance on injury prevention.
  2. Bunions and hammertoes – These conditions affect the bones in the feet. A bunion emerges when the joint at the base of the big toe swells or shifts out of place, causing the toe to change toward the others. A hammertoe is a deformity where a toe bends abnormally, leading to discomfort and difficulty walking.
  3. Nail disorders – Podiatrists treat conditions such as fungal infections and ingrown toenails. An ingrown toenail happens when the nail's edge penetrates the surrounding skin, leading to pain and potential infection.
  4. Diabetes-related foot issues – Diabetes may cause nerve damage and reduced circulation in the feet, raising the risk of serious complications. Each year, over 65,000 people require foot amputations due to diabetes-related issues. Regular podiatric care can help prevent infections, ulcers, and severe damage.
  5. Arthritis – With 33 joints in each foot, arthritis can cause significant pain, inflammation, and stiffness. Podiatrists may recommend physical therapy, medication, special footwear, or orthotics. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary.
  6. Growing pains in children – Some children have foot alignment issues, such as inward-turning feet, flat feet, or misaligned toes. Podiatrists may suggest exercises, insoles, braces, or, in rare cases, surgery to correct these concerns.
  7. Heel pain – Common causes include heel spurs, plantar fasciitis, and Achilles tendinitis. These conditions often result from excessive strain, improper footwear, or overuse. Treatments range from pain relief medications and orthotic inserts to surgery in more severe cases.
  8. Morton's neuroma – This nerve condition, affecting the area between the third and fourth toes, leads to pain, burning sensations, and discomfort while walking. Runners are particularly prone to this issue. Podiatrists may recommend orthotics, injections, or surgery for relief.


What is the difference between a podiatrist and an orthopedist?

An orthopedist is a medical physician who maintains bones, ligaments, muscles, nerves, and tendons throughout the body, including the ankle and foot. In contrast, a podiatrist is a medical doctor focusing strictly on ankle and foot care. 


Both orthopedists and podiatrists manage ankle and foot areas concerning the bones, joints, and soft tissues. They conduct many of the same ankle and foot procedures. They are highly experienced and qualified to treat them surgically and non-surgically. The only marked difference between an orthopedist and a podiatrist is that the latter also concern themselves with the biomechanics and dermatology of the ankle and foot. 


For example, a podiatrist is typically an indispensable healthcare provider for diabetic people with severe concerns about their foot health. However, an orthopedic should be your go-to for rescue when you have broken bones, fractures, or pain in those areas.


What are the risk factors for foot problems?

Some health conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, arthritis, high cholesterol, poor blood circulation, heart disease, and stroke, can cause foot problems in specific individuals.

People with diabetes are more susceptible to foot issues. Monitoring any changes in foot sensation and recording all foot-related symptoms is crucial. Addressing the root cause can alleviate foot discomfort.


It's essential to inform your podiatrist of any symptoms related to diabetic foot complications, such as dry or cracked skin, calluses, cracked or dry toenails, discolored toenails, lousy foot odor, sharp or burning pain, tenderness, numbness or tingling, sores or ulcers, and pain in your calves when walking.

  • If it is chronic, you should never disregard a nagging pain in any area of your legs, including your ankles or heels. Heel spurs can cause pain in the heels that refuse to go away. Pain could also signal underlying nerve problems like Morton's neuroma.
  • If you have nail disorders, such as an ingrown or discolored nail, it signals that it is time to check your foot. At times, if left untreated, ingrown toenails can become infected.
  • If you have been diagnosed with chronic conditions like diabetes, You are at risk of developing problems in your foot if you have diabetes. Consider visiting a podiatrist to discuss any issues you may be facing or to seek advice on preventive care.
  • If you have developed bunions or calluses, some common conditions can aggravate unless attended to by a medical professional. Look out for any painful growths in your feet, and get them examined if needed.
