    Title: 

    As we age, maintaining mobility becomes essential for independence, confidence, and quality of life. At Advanced Foot and Ankle Center of San Diego, we proudly offer expert foot and ankle care to seniors living in independent retirement communities throughout La Jolla, helping you stay on your feet—comfortably and safely.

    Whether you’re living at White Sands La Jolla, Casa de Mañana, Vi at La Jolla Village, Belmont Village Senior Living, Pacific Regent La Jolla, Atria La Jolla, or Bayshire Torrey Pines, our board-certified specialists are here to support your foot health with compassion, experience, and the most advanced treatment options available.


    Why Foot Care Matters More as We Age

    Our feet carry us for a lifetime, but over time, common conditions like arthritis, bunions, hammertoes, corns, calluses, neuropathy, and fungal infections can make walking painful and risky. Diabetes, circulatory issues, and balance changes further increase the chance of complications from untreated foot problems.

    Routine podiatric care can help prevent small issues from becoming serious mobility threats. That’s why our clinic emphasizes regular checkups, safe toenail trimming, skin care, and treatment of foot pain, all tailored to the unique needs of older adults.


    Services We Offer

    At the Advanced Foot and Ankle Center of San Diego, we provide a full spectrum of services, including:

    • Diabetic foot exams and wound prevention
    • Toenail care for thickened, fungal, or ingrown nails
    • Callus and corn management
    • Arthritis and joint pain treatment
    • Fall risk assessment and balance support
    • Custom orthotics and offloading shoes
    • Minimally invasive procedures when needed
    • Home care recommendations to keep you active and safe
