Eighty percent of Americans will experience foot and ankle pain at some point in their lives.
This pain can be caused by an injury, ill-fitting shoes, diseases such as arthritis and diabetes, poor circulation, genetic abnormalities, or simply wear and tear over time. No matter the cause, the result can be the same – difficulty moving and debilitating pain.
That's why we offer ankle and foot care for pediatric, neurologic, orthopedic, diabetic, geriatric and sports-related needs. At CoxHealth, our specialists use the latest technology to assess and treat your foot and ankle problems. We offer quick diagnoses followed by a care plan designed to fit your needs, reduce your pain, and help get you back in motion.
