Your feet help you stand, walk, run, and play. But when your feet hurt, life gets hard. Sometimes, surgery is the best way to help.
If you need surgery, you should pick the best place to go. This guide will help you find the right Foot Surgery Center in Arizona.
Let’s make it easy, step by step.
1. Find a Doctor You Can Trust
The most important part is the doctor. Look for a doctor who is trained and has done many foot surgeries.
Dr. Kris A. DiNucci is a Podiatric Foot and Ankle Surgeon at the Foot and Ankle Center of Arizona. He has helped many people walk without pain.
Doctors like him go to special schools and get years of training. You can check this on acfas.org.
When you meet the doctor, ask:
- “What kind of foot surgeries do you do?”
- “How many have you done?”
- “Are you board certified?”
If they answer with care, that’s a good sign.
2. Look for a Friendly, Helpful Team
A great center has kind and caring people. When you call or visit, the staff should smile and help you.
At the Foot and Ankle Center of Arizona, we treat every patient like family.
You should feel welcome from the first call to the last visit. The staff should help with forms, questions, and care.
When the staff is helpful, you feel safe and calm.
3. Make Sure the Place Is Clean and Modern
The center should look clean and neat. The tools they use should be up to date.
Centers should follow safety rules from the CDC to keep you safe from germs.
Ask:
- “Do you clean tools after each surgery?”
- “How do you keep patients safe?”
Good centers will be happy to answer.
4. Pick a Place That’s Easy to Reach
You don’t want to drive far when your foot hurts. Pick a place that’s close and easy to find.
The Foot and Ankle Center of Arizona is in Scottsdale, AZ. It’s in a good spot, near other health services, stores, and easy parking.
If you need to go back for a check-up, the trip should be easy.
5. Ask About After-Surgery Care
Good care doesn’t end after surgery. You need help to heal.
Ask the center what happens after surgery:
- Will someone help me with follow-ups?
- Do you give tips to heal faster?
- Can I call if I have questions later?
At our center, we help before, during, and after surgery. We want every patient to get better fast and feel good.
