Your Feet Deserve the Best Care In The Comfort of your home
Comprehensive Foot Exam
Dr. Cortez will conduct a thorough examination of your feet, ankles, and lower legs to diagnose and treat your foot ailment. We can bring the latest diagnostic tools and techniques directly to your home to ensure accurate diagnosis and treatment if necessary. Referrals to a specialist can be made as needed,
Diabetic Foot Care
Specialized foot care for patients with diabetes is essential, and a preliminary diabetic foot exam is recommended yearly. Dr. Cortez can work with your primary care physician to manage your foot health and prevent complications. Unfortunately, foot problems are a common result of diabetes. Over time, uncontrolled diabetes can lead to nerve damage, known as diabetic neuropathy, which can cause tingling, painful sensations, and loss of feeling in your feet. This loss of sensation can be incredibly dangerous, particularly if you can no longer detect a callus or cut on your foot. Such issues can lead to wounds, infections, and serious complications. To maintain your foot health, consider incorporating daily home foot care routines. Keep the feet you were born with in good condition.
Ingrown Toenail Treatment
Ingrown toenails can be painful and lead to infection, making proper care essential. With the right treatment, you can stop discomfort, but expert care is necessary to avoid prolonged pain. Call for a consultation to examine your options.
Fungal Nail Treatment
Thick fungal toenails can be painful and may lead to infection, making treatment necessary to prevent further issues. Dr. Cortez offers treatment for fungal toenails providing options like prescription medication or nail removal if needed.
Callus and Corn Treatment
Corns are thickened areas on the skin’s surface that can be irritating and painful. They tend to develop in areas where there is pressure or friction, such as on the little toe when it rubs against shoes or on the ball of your foot. To alleviate discomfort and prevent issues like infection and recurrence, proper care is essential.
