Podiatry is the branch of medicine that specializes in the treatment of medical and surgical conditions of the foot and ankle. Although the scope of practice does vary from state to state, in Ohio podiatry is defined as "the medical, mechanical and surgical treatment of ailments of the foot, the muscles and tendons of the leg governing the functions of the foot, and superficial lesions of the hand other than those associated with trauma."
Brachymetatarsia is characterized by a shorter than usual metatarsal bone, one of the five long bones in the feet that end in the toes. This causes one of the toes to be 'pulled back' from the rest, or overlap the others. If more than one of the long bones of the foot is affected, it is known as brachymetapody.
Sometimes known as "pump bump" because of its prevalence among women who wear pump-style shoes, Haglund's deformity can occur in one or both of the feet. If you are suffering from Haglund's deformity you will most likely have noticed a bony enlargement at the back of the heel. This inflammation is caused when the bursa, a fluid- filled sac between the Achilles tendon and your heel bone, becomes irritated.
Hallux Rigidus is a condition that affects the joint at the base of the big toe. If you suffer from this condition, you will notice pain and stiffness. The symptoms are often worsen while walking, running, or when the weather is cold or damp. Individuals with this condition may notice swelling and inflammation around the joint.

It can be nerve-wracking attending your first visit as a new patient, especially if your concerns were not generated with regard to a 'referral' type of appointment. I am pleased to share that it was a very pleasant experience! The front office, the medical assistant and even the doctor were all incredibly friendly and down to Earth, not to mention highly efficient. I would highly recommend Green Foot and Ankle Care to all.

Dr. Schoepper is without a doubt an excellent doctor and has such a great staff. Everyone is always friendly and helpful whether on the phone or in the office. He is actually one of the few that truly possess a genuine "bedside manner". He makes sure to explain everything medically, as well as in leyman terms so that you understand. In addition, his great sense of humor is very much appreciated and the old saying goes that "laughter is truly the best medicine".
