Conditions We Treat Virtually
No Office Visit Needed
Most non-emergency foot and ankle issues can be managed through telehealth. Common conditions we treat include:
- Heel pain and plantar fasciitis
- Bunions, hammertoes, and joint stiffness
- Toenail fungus and ingrown toenails
- Diabetic foot concerns and ongoing monitoring
- Chronic foot fatigue and arch pain
- Pre-surgical consults and second opinions
- Overuse injuries from walking, running, or standing all day
If an in-person procedure is necessary, Dr. Lanier will guide you through your next steps, but for many patients, telehealth offers an effective and efficient solution to treat and manage conditions without the need for in-person visits.
