Foot & Ankle
Physicians with an interest in Foot & Ankle
Many people experience foot and ankle problems often resulting in severe pain. Some of the factors that contribute to the cause of pain include poorly fitting shoes, heredity, aging and disease. Athletes and dancers sometimes experience unique foot and ankle problems related to the stress on these joints while participating in practice and events.
The foot and ankle provide a foundation and bear the weight of the entire body. Pain in these areas can often interfere with the ability to perform many of the daily tasks we take for granted. The foot and ankle team at OSS has experience in correcting and/or preventing foot and ankle injuries. Our team consists of orthopaedic surgeons, a podiatrist and a team of physical therapists. Following a thorough evaluation, the orthopedist can suggest such options as medications, steroid injections, specific exercises, shoe inserts, foot pads, and walking casts. For foot and ankle problems not relieved by conservative treatment, surgery is an option. Our goal is to keep your feet and ankles free of pain to allow greater mobility and freedom to pursue activities you enjoy.
If a podiatrist is what you are looking for, Dr. David Granger sees patients at our York and Lewisberry offices. Please click here to view our podiatric services.
