Services
Custom Orthotics
Custom orthotics are personalized shoe inserts designed to correct foot imbalances and alleviate pain from conditions like plantar fasciitis and flat feet. These biomedical devices improve alignment, distribute pressure evenly, and enhance mobility. Patients experience relief from chronic pain while engaging in daily activities, with orthotics tailored to their unique gait and foot structure through advanced diagnostic assessments.
MLS Laser Therapy
MLS Laser Therapy uses multiwave light technology to reduce inflammation and accelerate tissue repair for foot and ankle injuries. This non-invasive treatment stimulates cellular regeneration, improves circulation, and alleviates pain from conditions like Achilles tendonitis and neuropathy. Patients benefit from rapid recovery without surgery, experiencing noticeable improvement after several sessions targeting chronic or acute musculoskeletal issues.
Minimally Invasive Bunion Surgery
Minimally invasive bunion surgery corrects hallux valgus deformities through small incisions, preserving tissue integrity and speeding recovery. The procedure reshapes bone structures and stabilizes joints using advanced fixation techniques. Patients regain mobility faster with reduced scarring compared to traditional methods, returning to normal activities within 4-6 weeks while avoiding prolonged immobilization.
Amnio Injections
Amnio injections deliver natural anti-inflammatory agents to treat foot and ankle injuries by stimulating tissue regeneration. These injections reduce inflammation, accelerate healing, and provide pain relief for conditions like plantar fasciitis and tendon injuries. Patients receive non-surgical alternatives that promote cellular repair without steroid-related side effects, enhancing recovery for athletes and active individuals.
Pediatric Foot Care
Pediatric foot care addresses developmental conditions like flat feet, in-toeing, and sports injuries in children. Early intervention prevents long-term mobility issues through conservative treatments including orthotics and physical therapy. Parents receive guidance on identifying symptoms, ensuring timely care to support healthy foot development and maintain active lifestyles for growing patients.

Lets see.. I just left the office. I didnt even get to see the doctor. I showed up 10 min before my appointment time, was checked in- and sat there for 30 min AFTER my appointment time before I got up, said Ive been sitting waiting for that long and left. Is it really hard to call clients to let them know youre the appointments are running behind so we dont have to sit there? Who knows how much longer I wouldve had to wait before someone even said anything. Extremely disappointed in lack of client service.

Dr. Vonderlinden gave me an injection and shoe inserts for my foot pain. The pain went away immediately and I was able to entertain 17 guests for Thanksgiving with no discomfort. Prior to seeing Dr. Vonderlinden, my pain was so bad that it was impossible to sleep through the night. Looking forward to my next visit so I can continue to live pain free both day and night. Very caring doctor and friendly office staff.

Wonderful staff, the med tech was awesome, Dr VonDerLinden was thorough and kind and knew just what needed to be done. I have put this off for far too long - I am so glad I got this attended to, I should have done this months ago! Many Thanks!

This was the best healing experience, even at my worst moments. I've never had two doctors who honestly showed they cared so much. The (Lorton) staff were all very happy and friendly and made the office visits so much more comforting. Other dr. offices should take note! They (the staff) are all great!
