Your feet and ankles are highly specialized structures, requiring highly specialized care for the best and most-reliable outcomes. That’s why we’re pleased to introduce comprehensive services at ECMC’s new Foot and Ankle Center.

We’ll thoroughly evaluate you to determine whether surgical or non-surgical treatment would be best. When surgery is recommended, we’re there for you—pre- and post-operation—until you’re fully recovered.

Ask your physician to refer you to ECMC’s Foot and Ankle Center.
