General Practitioners

Warts
Arthritis
Plantar Fasciitis
We generally use this treatment modality for resistant cases of heel pain/plantar fasciitis if the standard conservative treatments fail to provide the desired long term relief of this condition.
Primary Care
Many HMO and point-of-service (POS) plans still require an ELECTRONIC referral in order to see any specialist. Please be certain to contact your primary care physician before your appointment to be certain that the referral is on file with our office. We are happy to assist you if there is a problem.
Family Practice

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care

Ultrasound
Your joints and tendons degrade over time from a range of factors including mechanical overloading, age, and genetics. Dr. Lipkin now offers amniotic cell therapy via ultrasound guidance to cushion, lubricate, and reduce inflammation, allowing you to keep moving.

Ankle Surgery
Bunion Surgery
Hi Dr. Lipkin - I hope all is well. Just wanted to share a photo from my trip to Orlando this weekend. It was 203 days post bunion surgery that I ran my first half marathon at Disney World. I finished 2 hours and 38 minutes! Aside from being exhausted, my foot felt better than ever. I couldn't have done it without the surgery and your support. Thanks!
Bunions
Related Problems: The excess strain from flat feet can cause other foot problems, such as hammertoes, bunions, heel spurs, arch strain, corns, neuromas, and sagging joints. Flat feet can also affect other parts of the body, causing fatigue, pain, or stiffness on the ankles, knees, hips and lower back.
Ingrown Toenails
Great doctor, friendly, informative and talented at what he does. I have ingrown toenails and he cut my nails so they wouldn’t hurt and let me know I would have to get a small procedure if I wanted the ingrowns not to come back. I usually hate doctors because they are close minded and arrogant. Not Dr Lipkin he was awesome!

Corns
Routine foot care is the trimming of toenails and corns and calluses in patients who do not have poor circulation, diabetes or diseased toenails. The fee is currently $55.00 and includes whirlpool if you desire.
Cyst
Ulcer
Pressure Ulcers are sores that occur when pressure cuts off the blood supply to the skin. Stress caused by the body’s weight and the impact of striking the ground place the ball of the foot, the big toe, and the heel at greatest risk. Left untreated, an ulcer may allow infection to enter your body. If infection reaches the bloodstream or bone, your life or limb may be at risk. But with your doctor’s help, your health can be protected. Pressure ulcers can be controlled and even prevented.
Calluses
Calluses may be the result of excessive pressure under one of your foot bones. Typically, the foot bone involved is a metatarsal. Normal weight bearing under all the metatarsals is evenly distributed. If there is an imbalance causing excessive pressure under one metatarsal, a callus (dead skin) may develop. This can be quite painful with walking and standing.Treatment includes periodic shaving of the callus, padding and orthotics. Surgery may be necessary if the pain continues.
Fungus
Fungus may grow in the toenail causing it to become thick and brown. The toe may become painful with shoe gear pressure.Treatment includes trimming the toenail every 2 months. Topical medications are only effective in mild cases. Usually oral medication and/or laser therapy is indicated and to date both of these treatments are the most effective ways in dealing with a difficult and sometimes chronic problem. Surgical removal of the toenail may also be required.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
Physical Therapy
If you are one of the millions of people suffering from chronic tendon disease known as tendinosis or chronic plantar fascial pain, known as fasciosis, then the Tenex procedure may be the right option for you. The procedure is specifically geared towards patients that have exhausted conservative treatments such as anti-inflammatory medications, rest, ice, cortisone injections and even physical therapy but are not in need of traditional open surgical procedures. If your pain has lasted longer than 3 months then the Tenex Health TX procedure which is considered minimally invasive, can offer the relief from chronic heel pain, Achilles tendon pain, as well as pain from certain other tendons of the foot.
Flatfoot Correction
Heel Pain
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

General Podiatry
Below are some links that we believe you may find helpful while researching your podiatric needs. We encourage all of our visitors to navigate these pages to learn more about the field of podiatry.
Bunions Problems
Bunions are an enlargement of the big toe joint which usually involves a drifting of the big toe toward the second toe. These can become quite painful especially in certain shoes.Treatment consists of using more comfortable shoes or surgery. Due to many technical advances of equipment and procedures, the surgery is not as painful as it used to be.If you have a bunion, it should be evaluated and you should be fully informed of your treatment options.
Calluses
Flat Feet
Fungus Toenails
Dr. Lipkin is trained in performing advanced laser treatment for toenail fungus. These treatments are considered safe and have a clinical proven effectiveness rate of 80% or better. These laser treatments have become an exciting treatment modality to help to eradicate what can be a difficult and unsightly medical condition.
Hammertoes
Hammertoes may be the result of excessive contracting of one or more toes. The toes becomes progressively stiff and crooked. On top of the toe a hard skin may develop known as a corn.Treatment includes periodic shaving of the corn, padding or possible surgery to straighten the toe.
Heel Spurs
Heel Pain may be the result of excessive standing or walking. Often the ligaments become inflamed. This is known as plantar fasciitis. A heel spur may also be developing. Treatment options include strappings, anti-inflammatory medication, custom made orthotics, cortisone injections or possible surgery. Radiofrequency therapy and/or Endoscopic Plantar Fasciotomy are also available treatment options.
Heel Pain
Ingrown Toenails
Ingrown toenails develop as a result of a curved toenail pushing into the adjacent skin. The side of the toe becomes red, swollen and inflamed which may lead to an infection.Treatment includes removal of the side of the toenail. This is done under local anesthesia. Antibiotics, soaks and pain medications may need to be prescribed.
Foot Orthotics
Prescription in-shoe orthotics are a type of custom-made support for the foot that is designed to relieve the discomfort of many different types of orthopedic and neurological foot ailments. A cast molding or foot impression is taken which capture the angular relationships between the various parts of the foot and leg. Orthotics are constructed of different materials such as various types of plastics (polypropylene), fiberglass, carbon graphite, leather, or medical grade Poron (shock absorbing material). Their medical value has been proven by long years of use in the podiatric profession and in many cases are an alternative to surgery.
Plantar Fasciitis
Platelet rich plasma (PRP) therapy involves the utilization of the patient’s own platelets to assist in the healing process of chronic injuries such as tendinitis and plantar fasciitis. The platelets are obtained via a simple blood draw from the patient’s arm and then the blood is spun in a machine called a centrifuge. The platelets are combined with growth factors and then are re-injected into the area of concern. These growth factors and platelets help recruit the body’s own natural healing cells to the injured site to optimize the environment for healing. It is a minimally invasive procedure and is usually done in an outpatient setting. There is minimal or no “down time” after the procedure is performed. Please ask the doctor if your condition warrants this treatment. It has become an extremely popular treatment among athletes, professional and nonprofessional to accelerate the healing process.
