Why Choose Our NJ Podiatrists?

Foot & Ankle Centers of New Jersey

Selecting a foot doctor is an important decision. Here’s what sets Foot & Ankle Centers apart from other podiatry practices in New Jersey.

Board-Certified Specialists

Our doctors hold board certification from the American Board of Podiatric Medicine (ABPM) and the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery (ABFAS). These credentials require passing rigorous examinations and demonstrating expertise in diagnosing and treating foot and ankle conditions. Board certification represents a commitment to the highest standards in podiatric medicine.

Comprehensive Care Under One Roof

From your first consultation through treatment and follow-up, our team handles every aspect of your foot and ankle care. We offer diagnostic imaging, conservative treatments, custom orthotics, physical therapy guidance, and surgical solutions when necessary. You won’t need to coordinate between multiple providers.

Advanced Treatment Options

Our podiatrists stay current with the latest developments in foot and ankle medicine. We offer laser therapy for toenail fungus, minimally invasive surgical techniques, regenerative treatments, and evidence-based protocols that get patients back on their feet faster.

Personalized Treatment Plans

Every patient receives individualized care. We take time to understand your symptoms, activity level, and treatment goals before recommending a plan. Whether you’re an athlete recovering from an injury or managing a chronic condition like diabetes, your treatment is tailored to your specific needs.

Convenient Scheduling

With seven locations across Central New Jersey and flexible appointment times, we work around your schedule. Most new patients can be seen within days, not weeks.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

When you choose Foot & Ankle Centers, you gain access to some of the most respected foot doctors in New Jersey—backed by advanced diagnostic tools, modern treatment techniques, and a commitment to excellent patient outcomes.

New patients can expect a thorough evaluation at their first appointment with one of our New Jersey podiatrists.

  • Before Your Visit – Complete your patient forms online or arrive 15 minutes early to fill them out. Bring your insurance card, a list of current medications, and any relevant medical records or imaging studies. Wear or bring shoes you typically wear, as examining your footwear helps our doctors understand how your feet function during daily activities.

  • During Your Appointment – Your podiatrist will review your medical history and discuss your symptoms in detail, including when they started, what makes them better or worse, and how they affect your daily life. A physical examination of your feet, ankles, and lower legs follows, which may include watching you walk to assess your gait.

    If imaging is needed, many of our offices have X-ray equipment on-site for immediate results. In some cases, your doctor may recommend advanced imaging like MRI or ultrasound.

  • Your Treatment Plan – After the examination, your podiatrist will explain the diagnosis and recommend treatment options. We believe in shared decision-making and will discuss the benefits and limitations of each approach. For many conditions, we start with conservative treatments before considering more invasive options.

    You’ll leave with a clear understanding of your condition, your treatment plan, and any follow-up appointments needed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to some of the most common questions about podiatry care and our Foot & Ankle Centers Doctors across New Jersey.

What is a podiatrist?2026-02-03T12:52:48-05:00

A podiatrist is a physician who specializes in diagnosing and treating conditions of the foot, ankle, and lower leg. Podiatrists complete four years of podiatric medical school followed by hospital-based residency training. They are licensed to prescribe medications, perform surgery, and provide comprehensive care for foot and ankle problems.

When should I see a podiatrist instead of my regular doctor?2026-02-03T12:53:04-05:00

See a podiatrist when you have persistent foot or ankle pain, a visible deformity, difficulty walking, recurring infections, or diabetic foot concerns. While your primary care doctor can address general foot issues, podiatrists have specialized training and equipment to diagnose and treat complex conditions more effectively.

What’s the difference between a podiatrist and an orthopedic surgeon?2026-02-03T12:53:18-05:00

Both can treat foot and ankle problems, but their training differs. Podiatrists (DPM) focus exclusively on the foot and ankle throughout their education. Orthopedic surgeons (MD or DO) train broadly in musculoskeletal conditions affecting the entire body. For foot and ankle issues specifically, podiatrists often have more specialized experience.

Does insurance cover podiatry visits?2026-02-03T12:53:32-05:00

Most health insurance plans cover podiatry services, including Medicare and Medicaid. Coverage varies by plan and condition being treated. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to verify your benefits. Our staff can also help you understand your coverage when you schedule an appointment.

How do I choose the right podiatrist?2026-02-03T12:53:47-05:00

Look for board certification (DABPM or DABFAS), which indicates advanced training and examination. Consider the doctor’s experience with your specific condition, the convenience of office locations, and patient reviews. A good podiatrist should listen to your concerns, explain your condition clearly, and involve you in treatment decisions.

Do I need a referral to see a podiatrist?2026-02-03T12:54:02-05:00

Most insurance plans do not require a referral to see a podiatrist. However, some HMO plans may require one. Check with your insurance provider if you’re unsure. You can also call our office and we’ll help verify whether a referral is needed for your plan.
