Services
In-House Digital X-rays
Our state-of-the-art digital X-ray technology provides rapid, low-radiation imaging for accurate diagnosis of bone and soft tissue conditions. This allows immediate assessment of fractures, deformities, and joint issues, streamlining treatment planning. Patients benefit from faster results and reduced wait times compared to traditional film-based methods.
Custom Foot Orthotics
Custom-molded orthotics correct biomechanical imbalances by aligning the foot and ankle into optimal positions. These personalized devices alleviate pain from flat feet, plantar fasciitis, and other conditions by redistributing pressure and improving gait efficiency. We use advanced scanning technology to ensure precise fit and function.
PinPointe FootLaser
FDA-cleared laser treatment targets toenail fungus with precision heating, eliminating infections without oral medications. The non-invasive procedure requires no downtime and achieves clinical results in a single session. Over 5 million treatments have demonstrated its safety and efficacy for restoring healthy nail appearance.
Lapiplasty MIS Bunion Correction
This patented technique corrects bunions by rotating misaligned bones into anatomical position and securing them with titanium plates. Unlike traditional methods, it addresses the three-dimensional joint instability causing bunions, reducing recurrence risk. Patients walk within days using surgical boots instead of casts.
Diabetic Foot Care
Specialized care prevents and treats diabetes-related complications like neuropathy, ulcers, and poor circulation. Regular check-ups, wound management, and custom orthotics help maintain foot health, reducing amputation risks. Our team collaborates with primary care providers for comprehensive patient care.

My doctor, which I dont remember his name. Was very helpful, made sure all my questions were answered, and made for a very stress free visit. They even sent me a letter thanking me for my visit which I havent seen from any other offices. Highly recommended.

I am new patient of this office and I could not speak more highly of them! I was able to get an appointment very quickly and the reception staff was kind and friendly. I was seen by Dr. Thomas Shannon who was wonderful! He took the time to listen to my concerns without making me feel rushed to get out of the office. He also walked me through the process of coming to my diagnosis and very clearly laid out treatment options to find my best course of treatment. I highly recommend coming here for any podiatric care you may need!

I had my first visit with Dr Thomas Shannon, my mother and father Joan and Mario Cagnetti were patients of Dr. Shannon. Also my sister and brother-in-law Julie and Darryl Damiani. He came highly recommended and I found out why. He is a very nice gentleman and great doctor. So glad I came to him with my foot problem. Would send other family members and friends to Doctor Shannon! Thanks so much and keep up the great work.
