About Gentle Foot Care

People of Bellefontaine mainly travel from place to place by means of walking and running. Anyone, from a young child to a great-grandparent, can find themselves needing the services of a podiatrist. Everyone can experience and suffer feet related pains and discomfort. This is because experiencing feet ailments is not only a problem of our elders. Any pain and ailment felt by the feet can affect their work and their lives. A DPM or most commonly known as a Podiatrist is a specialist who deals with all matters concerning the health and care of your feet. The law requires such professionals to pass an industry-grade examination for them to be able to practice their chosen fields of expertise. A board-certified podiatrist has received advanced training and clinical experience and passed a rigorous examination. At Gentle Foot Care, the board-certified/qualified physicians provide conservative treatments whenever possible and surgical treatments when the patient and doctor agree that this is best. Our physicians are affiliated with both the American Podiatric Medical Association and the Ohio Podiatric Medical Association. Special testing such as Padnet is offered by some of our clinics. The latest technology is used to diagnose and treat foot and ankle ailments, including radiographs and diagnostic ultrasound equipment. A Doctor of Podiatric Medicine is trained to diagnose and treat various kinds of feet concerns and problems.
