Podiatry
It’s no wonder that nearly 75 percent of Americans will experience some type of foot-related pain or injury in their lifetimes. On an average day of walking, our feet absorb a force equal to several hundred tons. Healthy feet are indispensable in keeping us active and moving.
But our feet are complex. They are stabilizers, shock absorbers, and propulsion engines that are instrumental to overall health and well-being. They require expert care.
Welia Health podiatrist Corey Valentine, DPM, provides that expert care. As a doctor of podiatric medicine, he is a physician and surgeon who treats the foot, ankle and soft tissue problems up to the level of the knee. In his clinical practice, he sees patients for the following:
- Bunions
- Plantar fasciitis
- Hammertoes
- Neuromas
- Fractures
- Wound care
Many procedures used to treat these conditions are minimally invasive and performed on an outpatient basis.
A referral may be required from your primary care provider, please check with your insurance carrier. For more information or to schedule an appointment, call Welia Health at 320.679.1313.
