Foot / Ankle
Foot Surgery in Montgomery County, OH
The foot (including the ankle) is a complex mechanical structure containing more than 120 bones, tendons, muscles and ligaments and 33 joints. All of these components work in unison to help support and balance your body during daily activities. Although some foot and ankle problems are inherited, many stem from a lifetime of accumulated abuse and neglect, such as wearing improper shoes or failing to seek early medical attention for injuries.
Because the feet support your entire body, they experience significant stress during daily activities. Over time, this stress can lead to injuries, degenerative conditions, or chronic pain. For many people in Montgomery County, OH, foot and ankle problems develop gradually due to factors such as improper footwear, sports injuries, arthritis, structural abnormalities, or untreated injuries.
At Orthopedic Associates, our experienced foot and ankle surgeons specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide range of foot and ankle conditions. Whether you are experiencing pain from a recent injury or managing a long-standing orthopedic condition, our team provides advanced treatment options designed to restore mobility and relieve pain.
We use the latest diagnostic techniques to uncover the cause of ankle or foot pain and provide the best possible individualized treatment plan including but not limited to surgery to get you back on your feet. After a diagnosis is made, one of our surgeons will work with you to devise a treatment plan that best suits your needs.

Foot and ankle pain can significantly affect your ability to stay active and perform everyday tasks. Even minor injuries can worsen over time if left untreated.

Osteoporosis Screening and Bone Health
If you have recently experienced a fracture or are over the age of 55, you may benefit from screening at our Osteoporosis Clinic.
