Sports & Impact Injuries

Who Do We Treat?

We treat athletes of all ages, including children and teenagers. High school athletes can be prone to many foot and ankle injuries that can cause long-term problems if left untreated.

Our Approach

Did you know that the gear you use on your feet and ankles can help or harm you? What are the right shoes for you? What do all of the terms and technology in athletic shoes really mean – minimalist, trail running, motion control? What about insoles and orthotics? Do they work, and how? What about ankle braces – do they help or hurt you? Even socks can have an impact, but how?

Vargas Foot & Ankle Specialists can help you navigate these complex choices to make the right selections for you. If you have a sports-related foot or ankle injury or just want to increase your speed and stamina, make an appointment today. We have the same technology right in our podiatry offices that professional athletes enjoy, such as laser therapy. We know how to make your feet work smarter, not harder!
