Podiatry
Our Podiatry Department provides the expert medical and surgical services you need to get back on your feet, whether you seek treatment for an injury, common foot problem or require ongoing care related to a chronic illness. We treat patients of all ages and for everything from routine foot care and preventive care to surgical procedures to wound management and trauma care.
Coordinated Care
The foot has often been called a “mirror of the body” because many health problems often show up through foot symptoms. Foot pain is not normal and can sometimes be a sign of a more serious medical problem such as arthritis, diabetes, circulatory problems and various skin conditions. East New York’s podiatrists work together with our primary care physicians to coordinate individual care plans for best results. Regular visits to your podiatrist may help you prevent serious conditions and complications from chronic diseases such as diabetes.
