Wasatch Foot & Ankle Institute provides comprehensive foot and ankle care for patients throughout Northern Utah — from routine nail and callus care to complex reconstructive surgery. Our board-certified, fellowship-trained podiatrists treat the full range of foot and ankle conditions at two convenient locations, Farmington and South Ogden, combining advanced technology with a personalized approach to every treatment plan.
Choosing a foot and ankle specialist is about more than finding someone nearby — it's about finding a team that can handle whatever your feet throw at you, from a nagging bunion to a sports injury to long-term diabetic foot management. Here's an overview of the care we provide and how we approach each patient's treatment.
What services does Wasatch Foot & Ankle Institute offer?
We treat patients across every stage of foot and ankle health, whether that means resolving an acute injury, managing a chronic condition, or simply keeping feet healthy through routine care. Our core service areas include:
- Foot and ankle surgery for bunions, hammertoes, heel spurs, fractures, and other structural problems that haven't responded to conservative care
- Custom orthotics designed around your specific foot shape and gait to relieve pain and improve function — see our custom orthotics page
- Diabetic foot care, including regular exams, neuropathy screening, and wound treatment to prevent complications
- Sports medicine for the sprains, stress fractures, tendon injuries, and overuse conditions that come with an active Utah lifestyle
- Routine foot care, including nail care, callus management, and general maintenance for healthy feet
What makes our approach to care different?
We built our practice around a simple idea: every patient's feet — and every patient's goals — are different, so treatment shouldn't be one-size-fits-all. A few things you can expect when you visit us:
Experienced, fellowship-trained physicians
Our podiatrists bring years of specialized training and hands-on experience to every case, from the most common foot complaints to complex surgical reconstructions. You're seeing physicians who focus exclusively on the foot and ankle.
Personalized treatment plans
We don't jump straight to surgery. Every plan starts with a thorough evaluation, and most conditions improve with conservative measures like bracing, orthotics, physical therapy, or in-office procedures before surgery is ever discussed.
Advanced technology
From in-office diagnostic imaging to minimally invasive procedures like the Tenex procedure and extracorporeal shockwave therapy, we use modern tools to diagnose accurately and treat efficiently — often avoiding open surgery altogether.
Compassionate, patient-first care
Foot and ankle pain affects everything from your mood to your ability to work and exercise. We take time to listen, explain your options clearly, and make sure you understand the "why" behind every recommendation.
Who do we treat?
Our patients range from student athletes recovering from a sprained ankle to older adults managing diabetic foot complications, and everyone in between. Common reasons patients visit us include:
- Persistent heel, arch, or ball-of-foot pain
- Bunions, hammertoes, or other toe deformities
- Ankle sprains, fractures, or chronic instability
- Diabetic foot changes, numbness, or slow-healing wounds
- Ingrown toenails, fungal infections, or other nail concerns
- Sports injuries and overuse conditions
