Healing From The Ground Up

At Pappas Podiatry, we use breakthrough technologies & treatments to relieve your pain and get you back to your life.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP)

PRP is a concentrated injection of your own platelets that releases growth factors to accelerate healing, isolating the most effective regenerative components from your blood.

Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate (BMAC)

BMAC involves harvesting and concentrating your bone marrow into an injection, rich in growth factors and stem cells to regenerate bone, tissue, and cartilage, enhancing the body’s natural healing response at the injury site.

Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy

A cutting-edge, non-invasive solution for chronic foot, heel, and ankle pain that delivers unique radial pulses to target tissue, enhancing circulation and reducing discomfort while improving treatment efficiency and outcomes.

Custom Orthotics

These prescription-based shoe inserts are designed to support the foot, crafted through a personalized process to address issues such as tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, foot pain, and overuse injuries.

Minimally-invasive Surgery

We offer a variety of surgical treatments effectively addressing conditions such as bunions, hammer toes, and fractures, providing patients reduced recovery time and less discomfort while achieving optimal results.

What We Treat

With specialized treatment options including functional and regenerative therapies, minimally-invasive and non-invasive treatments we’re here to help you get back in action.

  • Plantar Fasciitis

    Severe pain on the bottom of the heel can be frustrating and debilitating. Regenerative medicine can reduce inflammation, and bring lasting relief.

  • Achilles Tendonitis

    As a common overuse injury in athletes, small tears in the tendon can be slow to heal. Regenerative medicine speeds up this process, getting you back in the action, fast.

  • Bunions

    We offer both minimally invasive and open surgical procedures for conditions like bunions, hammer toes, and fractures, ensuring you receive the best treatment option based on your individual candidacy.

  • Ankle Pain

    Depending on the level of severity, we treat ankle pain with regenerative medicine, and in some cases, total ankle replacement and reconstructive surgery.

  • Arthritis

    Arthritis can cause stiffness and pain in the ankle, midfoot and big toe joints. We can use a range of advanced treatment options, based on the location and level of severity,

  • Neuropathy

    Neuropathy can cause burning, tingling, and numbness in the feet, making every day tasks difficult. We offer nerve decompression surgery to provide relief and restore function.

I have gone to see Dr Pappas for over a year. I have always been extremely satisfied with the care and attention that I received from him. He gives maximum time to hear my concerns and views. All his interactions are in an unhurried and professional manner. Very good doctor and kind at heart.

Roland Leger

Excellent Doctor. Very professional, caring, and a great surgeon. He doesn’t have a 4.9 rating by mistake. He takes the time to sit and explain the procedure, and is there, 100% for the follow up appts as well. With what I had done to my foot, nothing short of a magician.
