A Positive Approach To Treatment Of The Foot And Leg
We welcome you as a patient and appreciate the opportunity to get you "back on your feet".
Your feet are composed of 56 bones, 66 joints, 62 tendons, 76 muscles, 112 ligaments and numerous nerves and blood vessels, functioning as a finely tuned and coordinated orchestra. They provide balance, mobility, adaptability, support and shock absorption. We depend on our feet and legs to carry us an average of 100,000 miles in a lifetime. We can expect, during the lifetime of service from infancy through adulthood, that ailments or injury to our feet and legs will occur. Ailments or injuries of the foot and leg are among the most common medical problems today. They can be caused by industrial, sports and other accidents; by normal "wear and tear"; and by ill fitted shoes. Some problems are hereditary, and others are a consequence or aging.
