Trusted Foot and Ankle Care in Houston Since 1978

Choosing a podiatrist is an important decision. Your feet carry you through every workday, workout, and weekend, and the right specialist can be the difference between living with pain and getting back to the activities you love. For more than four decades, Foot Specialists of Memorial has helped Houston families do exactly that. Founded at the Memorial City Hospital location in 1978, our privately owned practice has grown into one of the most recognized podiatry groups in the area while staying true to the personal, patient-first care we started with.

Surgically Trained Podiatrists

Our physicians are residency trained in foot surgery as well as reconstructive rearfoot and ankle surgery. That depth of training means you can receive everything from a routine nail procedure to advanced reconstruction under one roof, without being bounced between offices. Our surgeons are experienced in Lapiplasty 3D bunion correction, a procedure that corrects the unstable joint at the root of bunions for a more stable, longer-lasting result.

Conservative Care First

Surgery is never our starting point. Most foot and ankle problems improve with the right non-surgical plan, and we always begin with the least invasive treatment that can get results. Patients with heel spurs and plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, or flat feet often find relief through custom orthotics made from precise measurements of their feet, or EPAT shock wave therapy, which stimulates natural healing with no incisions and no downtime.

Two Convenient Houston Offices

With our Gessner office near Memorial City and our Greenhouse office serving west Houston, Katy, and Cypress, expert podiatric care is never far away. Both locations offer the same advanced diagnostics and treatment options, so you can choose the office that fits your commute and schedule. We also proudly welcome patients from Katy, Cypress, Spring Valley Village, Bellaire, and Bunker Hill Village.

Care for the Whole Family

We treat patients of every age, from children with plantar warts or ingrown toenails to athletes recovering from ankle sprains and older adults managing hammertoes, Morton’s neuroma, or toenail fungus. Every treatment plan is built around your age, activity level, health history, and personal goals.

A Reputation Built by Our Patients

Our patients are our best advocates. Across our two offices, Foot Specialists of Memorial has earned hundreds of reviews with an average rating near five stars, along with multiple community “Best Of” recognitions over the years.

Frequently Asked Questions About Choosing Our Practice

What makes Foot Specialists of Memorial different from other podiatry practices?

Foot Specialists of Memorial has served Houston since 1978 as a privately owned practice. Our surgically trained podiatrists offer both advanced conservative treatments and reconstructive surgery, with two convenient offices and a patient-first approach.

Are your podiatrists trained to perform foot and ankle surgery?

Yes. Our physicians are residency trained in foot surgery and reconstructive rearfoot and ankle surgery, including Lapiplasty 3D bunion correction.

Do you always recommend surgery?

No. We start with the most conservative effective treatment, such as custom orthotics, EPAT shock wave therapy, footwear changes, and stretching. Surgery is only recommended when conservative care has not provided enough relief.

Do you treat children?

Yes. We treat patients of all ages, including children with flat feet, plantar warts, ingrown toenails, and heel pain from growth-related conditions.

How quickly can I be seen?

We work to see new patients promptly, and many minor problems such as ingrown toenails can often be treated during the first visit. Call either office or request an appointment online to find the next available time.
