New Year, New Leaf, Healthy Feet

As the new year hastily approaches, ones thoughts turns to resolutions to make. We would like to suggest one thing for you to do this new year if we could. We would suggest that you make an appointment at your local podiatrist.

The reason we wish to see you is because that it is so much easier for podiatrists if they see people before there is a problem with their feet or ankle. What it does is it enables your podiatrist to start a file for you. This means that even if your feet are in great shape, it lets the doctor know what you feet are like and look like at their best, so that if and when problems come, they will be able to know what to do to get you foot back to its best possible shape again. Everyone’s feet are different and a check up appointment helps the doctor keep your feet and ankles running at their best.

In some cases, by getting an appointment before you notice any injuries or problems, the doctor is able to catch a potential problem and fix it easily without surgery before the problem flares up and hurts you. So you never know what you could be saving yourself from having to go through if you get a check up appointment.

If you are in need of a podiatrist, you should look into Foot & Ankle Associates. We have two locations, one in Sugar Land and the other in the Richmond/Rosenberg area. Dr. Marco Vargas specializes in foot and ankle care, foot and ankle surgery, and since he was a college football player, loves helping athletes get back on their feet and into the game.
