Keeping you on your feet with Dr. Dan
As the year fades to fall, we are reminded that winter is fast approaching. With winter comes the possibility of winter weather, not just the cold but the snow, sleet,and icy precipitation. While the snow can be a beautiful sight and one so many of us enjoy, it’s important to take care and prepare your feet for these slippery conditions. Just like new tires might be needed, a great pair of snowshoes or boots is a must for winter weather conditions.
As your podiatrist, I recommend a snowshoe that is not only comfortable and supportive but also helps you stay on your feet and protects your feet and ankles from any possible injury. The Reconstructive Foot & Ankle Institute, LLC, offers a full-service retail shoe store with many winter weather approved options. We offer brands such as Dunham, Wolverine, Dr. Comfort, Anodyne, Orthofeet, Artrex, and Apis. Our skilled and knowledgeable staff can accurately size you and order your choice of footwear the same day, no appointment necessary.
As experts in falls risk prevention, we know not all falls are preventable. We also know a slip on the ice can cause a lasting injury to your ankle and foot. At the Reconstructive Foot & Ankle Institute, LLC, we have onsite digital X-ray and Ultrasound to determine the best treatment plan for your foot or ankle injury. If you have an unfortunate fall, you should call our office before calling urgent care. We will have you seen that day by Dr. Dan, who can get you on your way to recovery.
Winter is a wonderful time to get outdoors, so let us help you stay moving and enjoying all our local landmarks and natural resources. Let us take care of all your foot care and footwear needs, and remember, if it’s below the knee, think of Me!
