Foot Skin Conditions
Foot Skin Conditions
Skin concerns of the foot, treated by physicians who specialize in them.
Schedule appointmentFoot-first dermatology
Dry skin, fungal toenails, plantar warts, eczema, persistent itching, the suspicious mole on the top of the foot — skin conditions of the foot are common, treatable, and often missed by general dermatology because the foot is small and complex.
We approach the foot first as a foot, then as skin. That order matters.
What we treat
- Fungal toenails — laser, topical, and combined protocols
- Plantar warts — in-office removal
- Cracked heels and chronic dry skin
- Eczema and persistent itching of the foot
- Suspicious skin lesions — examined and biopsied as appropriate
Stubborn skin concerns deserve specialist care. We are accepting new patients.
Schedule appointmentKey Information
