Services
Ingrown Toenail
Ingrown toenail treatment at Oklahoma Foot and Ankle Institute addresses painful nail conditions through partial or permanent nail removal. Our podiatrists use matrixectomy procedures and laser therapy to prevent recurrence. Patients receive same-day evaluations and treatments, ensuring rapid relief from infection risks and chronic discomfort.
Achilles Tendonitis
Our Achilles tendonitis care combines night splints, physical therapy, and custom orthotics to reduce inflammation and restore mobility. For severe cases, surgical repair is available using minimally invasive techniques. Patients benefit from personalized rehabilitation plans tailored to athletic and daily activity needs.
Plantar Fasciitis
Advanced plantar fasciitis treatment includes biomechanical analysis, custom orthotics, and non-surgical interventions like stretching protocols and NSAID therapy. Chronic cases may receive minimally invasive surgery to release tension in the plantar fascia for lasting pain relief.
Bunions
Bunion treatment options range from conservative therapies like padding and orthotics to minimally invasive surgical correction. Our surgeons realign toe joints and remove bony protrusions, improving foot function and reducing pain during daily activities.
Neuropathy
Comprehensive neuropathy management includes TENS therapy, medication management, and wound care for diabetic patients. We utilize advanced diagnostics to address nerve damage causes and implement treatment plans to improve sensation and prevent complications.

My first visit and the entire staff went above and beyond to improve the overall appearance of my feet and to provide Excellent care. Dr Plants was superb and worked on both feet and provided me with a pair of shoes that from the moment I put them on, soothed my feet and provided me with more pain relief than I have felt in more than 9 months. I am so amazed! I have been in excruciating pain and could barely stand much less walk and thanks to Dr Nicholas Plants and his staff, I am walking comfortably and basically pain free for the first time in an awfully long time. THANK YOU. I am looking forward

I had no idea this office was in Del City but I. I really glad I found it..ce brand new well furnished. and they have on site x-rays thank goodness so you don't have to go and come back. I saw Dr. Leila Straehla and she is AMAZING. I like the fact that she gave me options in my treatment. I also had several issues going on at the same time but she handled all of them very effeciantly and discussed everything with me in terms I could understand. Very very nice. Also the lady doing x-rays and diabetic foot care was nice and also quick. I will add that you first have to get past the not so friendly

Dr Plants was recommended by our Pediatrician and what a great recommendation it was. Dr Plants and his staff are very pleasant and professional. Right from the moment we entered the door they were helpful and accommodating. Without hesitation I highly recommend Dr Plants.

If they have to send a biopsy off to a lab/pathologist, make sure you ask them which one and then check with your insurance that the lab/pathologist is IN NETWORK. This provider's office clearly doesn't care to notify you and get your consent to have your specimen sent to a pathologist that is out of network (even if the clinic itself is in network). *the use a pathologist that is out of network with BCBS* I got a surprise bill for $700 and I am not happy about it. It will be illegal for them to do this beginning January 2022. Just avoid this clinic, they don't care about their patients.

The entire staff (receptionist, medical assistant and doctor) were so amazing!! My adult son has special needs and is easily overwhelmed, but everyone was super patient and kind to my baby. They worked to modify their normal schedules to accommodate our schedule needs based upon my sons mental and physical needs. I would HIGHLY recommend this place!!!
