As pioneers in the study of foot and ankle disease
and trauma, the Penn Foot and Ankle Center at
Pennsylvania Hospital has a team of three board-certified
foot and ankle surgeons. Our team provides comprehensive
diagnostic, surgical and rehabilitative services
for adult foot and ankle conditions, from the
most common to the most complex.
