Foot & Ankle Center

The foot and ankle form a complex mosaic of interconnected ligaments, bones, and tissues. Its structure includes bigger bones like the tibia - which connects your leg to your foot - to the small outer phalanges that make up your pinky toes. Your foot and ankle also contain nerves, tendons, muscles all to help give you the ability to be mobile.

Most people will experience foot or ankle pain in their life that can limit mobility and quality of life. While some conditions or injuries will clearly require a visit to a foot and ankle specialist, other problems may not be so obvious.
