What Is Foot Pain Keeping You From?
Tell us where your foot hurts, when it bothers you, and what you want to get back to doing. Your symptoms and examination guide the recommendations.
First Steps & Heel Pain
Heel or arch discomfort with your first steps after sleeping or resting.
Walking & Standing
Foot pain that makes work, errands, or longer periods on your feet difficult.
Exercise & Activity
Heel, arch, or tendon discomfort that interrupts workouts or the activities you enjoy.
Start With an Evaluation.
Plantar fasciitis commonly causes pain around the heel and arch, often with the first steps after rest. But foot pain can have other causes. We’ll review your symptoms, activity, footwear, and previous care. Dr. Prieto examines your foot, ankle, and relevant movement, explains the findings, and discusses whether care here is appropriate. Imaging or referral may be recommended when needed.
A Plan for Your Next Steps.
Your plan may include targeted stretching and strengthening, activity and footwear guidance, and hands-on soft tissue care. Focused shockwave may be considered for persistent plantar fasciitis when appropriate. We’ll explain your options, limitations, expected schedule, and costs before you begin. Results vary, and further medical care may be needed.

Questions Before You Book?
Is every heel pain problem plantar fasciitis?
No. Heel and foot pain can have different causes. We’ll review your symptoms and examination before recommending care or further evaluation.
Is shockwave right for me?
It may be an option for persistent plantar fasciitis. Your diagnosis, previous care, health history, and goals matter. We’ll explain whether it is appropriate and discuss its limitations.
When should I seek medical care?
Seek urgent assessment for severe pain, inability to walk, a deformed foot, or a snap or pop with injury. New tingling or loss of feeling also needs medical evaluation. If you have diabetes and foot pain, contact your medical provider promptly.
