Podiatry
At Iowa Ortho, our podiatry doctors in the Des Moines area provide expert diagnosis and treatment for a full range of foot and ankle conditions. Whether caused by an injury, overuse, or a chronic disorder, problems in the feet and ankles can affect balance, mobility, and overall quality of life. Our podiatrists use advanced techniques and individualized treatment plans to help each patient relieve pain, restore function, and return to an active lifestyle.
Podiatrists are doctors who specialize in the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle, and related structures. During podiatric medical school and residency training, they gain expertise in both nonsurgical and surgical methods of care, from managing heel pain and ingrown toenails to performing complex reconstructive procedures. At Iowa Ortho, our podiatrists collaborate closely with our orthopedic team to ensure patients receive comprehensive, coordinated care.
