Anxiety or Fear of Going To The Foot Doctor? We Can Help…

Foot Doctor

It is not out of the ordinary for certain patients to fear going to the doctor, or even suffer from increased anxiety.

With new technology and the advancements in podiatry, along with spending quality time with each and every patient…while listening to your concerns and taking that extra time to explain everything in detail, we find that most of our patients that were apprehensive at first are now much more relaxed.

To make your visit with us more comfortable, we have carefully chosen the modern equipment and facilities in our office. Our office has some of the most technologically advanced equipment available, which has been specifically developed for the use in foot and ankle care.

Not Alarmist

You don’t want to hear the word “Surgery”, especially if you are anxious to begin with about coming to the podiatrist.

Rest assured that we are not alarmist and we always try every possible treatment option first, and only resort to surgery as an absolute last resort.

You will never feel rushed or like your asking a stupid question pertaining to your treatment. We will take the time to go over your treatment options, and answer any and all questions that you may have.

We Treat Children As Well

We have extensive experience treating the feet and ankles of children as well. We also have children ourselves, so we know how scary coming to the doctor’s office can seem for them.

You can rest assured that our Doctors and staff here at the Beltsville Foot and Ankle Center take extra measures to make sure that your child is as comfortable as possible.

Check Us Out First

We actually recommend that you do your due diligence first. Check out our background, take a look at our testimonials from other current and past patients, and call or email us with any questions that you have before you come see us.
