This state-of-the-art facility is equipped with an in-office procedure suite and x-ray available. We offer conservative and surgical management of all foot and ankle problems.
Growing feet often need much different care than those of adults. Therefore, if a child has a foot problem, it's important to find a podiatrist who can properly treat pediatric patients. These doctors know how to spot hidden problems that are developing, and can tell you which issues can be "grown out of" and which actually need treatment, and more.
An ankle sprain is an injury to one or more ligaments in the ankle, usually on the outside of the ankle. Ligaments are bands of tissue-like rubber bands-that connect one bone to another and bind the joints together. In the ankle joint, ligaments provide stability by limiting side-to-side movement. Some ankle sprains are much worse than others.
A bunion (also referred to as hallux valgus) is often described as a bump on the side of the big toe. But a bunion is more than that. The visible bump actually reflects changes in the bony framework of the front part of the foot. The big toe leans toward the second toe, rather than pointing straight ahead.
People living with diabetes are prone to having foot problems, often because of two complications of diabetes: nerve damage (neuropathy) and poor circulation. Neuropathy causes loss of feeling in your feet, taking away your ability to feel pain and discomfort, so you may not detect an injury or irritation.

I needed bunion surgery and was TERRIFIED from all the things I heard people say about it plus it was my first surgery. Well Dr. Schwartz being the amazing doctor she is made it so comfortable and easy for me. She was so patient, kind, educated, thorough and just everything you want in a doctor that’s going to perform surgery on you. I can’t say enough good things about her and can’t recommend her enough. This process was not as bad as I thought and everyone couldn’t believe how quickly I was healing post op and I swear it’s because I had the best doctor around! I still can’t believe

This was my first time at East Point Foot and Ankle to see Dr. Schwartz for an injury and I am very satisfied with the care that I received. All staff were knowledge, friendly and empathetic. Dr. Schwartz was very engaged and took ample time to understand the problem, diagnose, solution, and I came out confident in the plan of care. Would absolutely recommend!

Was trying to be seen by a podiatrist for the last 4 month because of an infected buried toenail. Went to a urgent care clinic and was prescribed with antibiotics for 7 days and they gave me a list of podiatrists near my area. Most of the podiatrist clinics were offering appointments of 2 months. In the meantime I had recurring infections in my big toe. I was prescribed 3 times more antibiotics. Finally I went to my Primary doctor which he referred me to the East Point Foot & Ankle Clinic as an urgent patient. It took less than a week to be seen by Dr. Elizabeth Schwartz which did an awesome job

Had my first appointment today with Dr. Schwartz and am so thankful to have stumbled upon this all female practice! From the Initial inquiry request submitted everything has been flawless, timely, professional, and the girls who greeted and checked me in were a pleasure to deal with. Dr. Schwartz was welcoming, listened intently, was extremely thorough and explained everything that I questioned her with. Hands down the best Doctor I’ve ever encountered and for the first time in a very long time am hopeful she will bring promising results which will give me a part of my life back that I’ve been

Finding a trusted specialist in this expertise is not easy, but I am elated that I found Dr Elizabeth Schwartz.. Not only is she beyond personable and caring, she welcomes questions during the visit. The entire staff is awesome. Amazing customer service from start to end. I had surgery on both feet and highly recommend East Point Foot and Ankle and Dr Elizabeth Schwartz!

When I first called, it was an easy booking experience but the wait would have been a couple weeks. My problem worsened to the point I could barely walk (after being misdiagnosed and charged at urgent care) so I left a message hoping for an appointment sooner if they had a cancellation. I got a call and got in a day and a half later, and my problem is finally being addressed correctly. The doctor was very knowledgeable and explained the process of hopefully addressing the dysfunction with conservative care. They didn’t rush me out the door and were very kind and caring. I would highly recommend

Just came from seeing Dr Elizabeth Schwartz. This is a super covid conscious building. Everything is impeccably clean and you will feel safe going in and coming out. The doctor was great - she not only had a very good bedside manner but she was also knowledgeable. How often do you get both? You could see she had a lot of expertise in her area and most of all she spent a very long time with me without showing the least bit of impatience. Very hopeful about following her advice. Great place.
