Feet, Ankles

Dr. Thomas makes a priority of educating patients about proper foot health and care.

As a foot and ankle specialist, Dr. Jeremy M. Thomas puts a strong emphasis on prevention. Since opening his practice – Triangle Foot and Ankle Specialist – at 208 Ashville Avenue, Suite 40, nearly a year ago, Dr. Thomas and his staff have made a priority of educating patients about proper foot health and care. More than half of their patients are children, so they know the importance of proper foot evaluations and subsequent treatment in avoiding future foot and ankle pains.

Having been trained by some of the top foot and ankle surgeons in the world, Dr. Thomas is an expert in the treatment of conditions and injuries such as bunions, hammertoes, ingrown toenails, fractures, sprains, Achilles tendonitis, and problems arising from diabetes.

• Heel pain is not always plantar fasciitis and needs an X-ray or Ultrasound. These types of pain can be disguised as fractures, bone tumors, etc.
