Services
Diabetic Foot Care
We specialize in preventing and treating diabetes-related foot complications, including ulcers and nerve damage. Our team provides regular checkups, wound care, and custom therapeutic footwear to reduce amputation risks. Patients receive personalized education on daily foot care practices and early detection of circulation issues.
Heel Pain Treatment
Our practice addresses heel pain caused by plantar fasciitis, stress fractures, and Achilles tendon issues. Treatments include custom orthotics, physical therapy, corticosteroid injections, and shockwave therapy. We use advanced diagnostics to identify root causes and create targeted recovery plans for long-term relief.
Custom Orthotics
We design custom orthotic inserts using digital scanning technology to correct biomechanical issues. These devices alleviate pain from flat feet, high arches, and overuse injuries by improving alignment and distributing pressure evenly. Patients receive durable, activity-specific solutions for daily comfort.
Ingrown Toenail Removal
Our team performs partial and full toenail removals for chronic ingrown nails using minimally invasive techniques. We apply chemical matrixectomy to prevent regrowth and provide post-operative care instructions. This procedure reduces recurrence rates while ensuring patient comfort during recovery.
Sports Injury Rehabilitation
We treat sports-related foot and ankle injuries like sprains, fractures, and tendonitis. Our rehabilitation programs combine physical therapy, bracing, and activity modification to restore mobility. Athletes receive sport-specific training to safely return to peak performance levels without reinjury risks.

My husband has been a patient for the last few years, and although they've been the hardest years of our lives the care and compassion we've encountered here are outstanding. He's had so many surgeries and all have been great, they've been able to save him from any complications and ALWAYS put us at ease with kindness and efficiency. Definitely 5 stars!

Dr Christopher Moore is the BEST!!! Dr Lily Moore, Dr Ward & Dr J are wonderful. If anyone is having foot & ankle problems, Moore Foot & Ankle is your answer. I have been a patient since 2015. Had it not been for Dr Chris I probably would have lost my foot. I can’t praise Dr Chris or any of his staff enough!!! I consider all of staff & Drs to be wonderful friends!!!!
