My search for relief from plantar fasciitis started over 10 years ago. Running finally took its toll on my feet. Doctor Aziz used ultrasound technology and orthotic inserts to completely cure me from plantar fasciitis and keep it from coming back. In recent years Doctor Aziz and her friendly and efficient staff has helped me over come an ingrown toe nail, toe nail removal, and some painful neuromas.
One of the more uncommon conditions that can affect a foot is accessory navicular syndrome. We are happy to offer treatment at Foot & Ankle Specialty Group for this rare development. The accessory navicular bone is estimated to be present in around 20% of the population. If you have this bone in your foot, it's important that you know what accessory navicular syndrome is so that you can be prepared if ever you become affected by it.

The medical and surgical care I received from Doctors Aziz and Yokay was excellent. I was clearly informed of my diagnosis, options, treatment, and follow-up. I am particularly thankful for the diligent postoperative care, where I received frequent check-ups to ensure the efficacy of my foot surgery and clear answers to my questions.
The nursing and administrative staff at Foot & Ankle Specialty Group are commendable - they are professional, friendly and efficient. In a few months after my surgery, my foot is as it should be and I am able to resume my normal activities. I highly recommend Doctors

Every one of the staff and Dr. Aziz were so friendly, yet professional! I met with Dr. Aziz regarding a hammer toe as well as bunions. While looking at the x-rays of my feet, Dr. Aziz clearly explained the different options and treaments available to me! And I thought I only had one option - surgery! Now I know there are other options!! I highly recommend Dr. Aziz!

I visited Dr. Yokay at the Foot and Ankle Specialty Group. She quickly diagnosed my foot problem and it was a blessing in disguise that I had this foot pain, as this was my first time ever visiting a podiatrist. She indicated that my gait was off and recommended orthotics to prevent any future foot issues.

I went here because I had an awful ingrown toenail on my left big toe and they made everything a breeze! The staff here is wonderful; they explain everything for you and make sure you're well taken care of. I'm in the process of healing and I couldn't have asked for a more precise and clean procedure in no time at all. Would definitely recommend and I'll be returning if I need to in the future!

I had an appointment today…..everyone in the office were extremely friendly and helpful. The doctors and nurses explained in detail all of my treatment options. I am very confident that my outcome will be very beneficial immediately, and will allow me to continue to stay active playing tennis and keeping up my exercise routine. I highly recommend Dr Aziz’s services and staff for your foot and ankle problems.

I am blown away by the excellent experience I have had in this office and under the care of this incredible doctor and her medical team. Dr. Aziz is extremely knowledgable with a wealth of experience. My father had extreme issues with his feet and most people can barely even look at them without gagging. She was wonderful with him and had a really great sense of humor to match his and she came up with an excellent game plan for getting his feet in better shape. She has been very helpful with my own foot health as well. I have been to 3 specialists in two years for my feet and she is the first person

Dr Aziz has been my Foot Dr for 18 years. She is an amazing Doctor, has a kind and caring manner and is an outstanding Surgeon.
She has helped me with a surgical issue that other Doctors couldn't.
Dr. Aziz even corrected my Daughter's flat feet when she was a child. My Daughter is now 25 years old and has been able to wear any shoe heel she wants.
I highly recommend Dr Aziz to anyone needing treatment or surgery for their feet.
