Lasers have been around for many years and we now have a treatment available for nail fungus that is effective. Quick, painless, and proven technology in the aesthetic industry. Lasers are surgical devices only to be operated by a foot and ankle surgeon. The procedure is only done by our Foot and Ankle Surgeon trained in aesthetics and laser treatment. Our doctor is the only podiatrist in the western United States to be certified for aesthetic IPL and laser treatments.

Our office uses a advanced high power laser, preventing overheating of the treatment area. We use a advanced medical grade laser that does not burn the skin and is only attracted to discoloration in the nails.

We now proudly offer advanced DNA analysis for identification of infections. Bacterial, Fungal, Viral infections are now fast and simple to treat.

This is straight out of CSI but more advanced!  We work with a laboratory that does Level 1 identification within 24 hours!  In addition, within 7 days I know percentages of bugs involved as well as resistance to antibiotics!  We proudly offer this for all our patients now.  There are only a few insurances that don't cover for DNA pathologic analysis at Level 1 & Level 2.

As a physician and surgeon in private practice I stay on the cutting edge of medicine.  DNA Analysis is here and it's here to stay.  There will be a slow shift in medicine towards this technology.  Why wait, it's already here.
