Foot and Ankle Pain
We bring together health professionals with advanced training and a wealth of experience in treating all kinds of foot and ankle pain.Common Foot and Ankle IssuesCarrying you through life can take a toll on your feet and ankles. When you're standing, your feet and ankles support your entire body weight. Activities like running place up to four times that much force on them. And in many parts of your feet and ankles, only a thin layer of skin protects your bones and nerves. All of this makes them vulnerable to issues.Common work- and sports-related injuries, fractures and deformities include:Achilles tendon rupture.Ankle and foot arthritis.Ankle and foot trauma.Bunions, hammertoes and claw toes.Congenital defects and acquired deformities.Fractures.Heel pain.Ligament sprains and tears.Pediatric and newborn deformities and injury.Plantar fasciitis.Post-traumatic reconstruction.Stress fractures.Tendonitis.The inner workings of these joints are complicated. Your feet alone are home to 66 joints and a quarter of all your bones. So diagnosing and treating foot and ankle problems requires very specialized knowledge and skills.That's exactly what our highly trained foot and ankle care team brings to your treatment. Our specialists have extensive experience treating problems from ingrown toenails and bunions to gout and clubfoot. We treat patients of all ages, from babies and teens to older adults.Whenever possible, we use non-invasive treatments such as physical therapy. Still, sometimes an operation is your best option. In that case, our surgeons use the latest methods. These reduce the time you have to spend in the hospital, if any. And after surgery, our physical therapists help improve pain and movement.

Breast Reconstructive Surgery
Surviving breast cancer doesn't have to mean major surgery or disfigurement. Advances in plastic surgery provide many options for breast reconstruction.
Our plastic surgeons are experts in breast reconstructive surgery. We work closely with Luminis Health breast surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists and radiologists. This means you have a comprehensive team with advanced training in surgical oncology and breast surgery.
Why Get Breast Reconstructive Surgery
Breast reconstruction is optional. There are women who choose to “go flat" or wear a breast prosthesis. Others choose reconstructive surgery because it helps them feel like themselves after cancer treatment.
You may take the opportunity to either augment your breast size or have a breast reduction if you've long suffered from chronic neck and back pain.
There is no one right choice. By talking with one of our surgeons at Luminis Health Plastic Surgery, you can learn more about the factors involved. This helps you make the best decision for you.
Patient Story - Dr. Nikki Ham
"I want other women to know that they can ask questions, they can learn about their options, and that they are the decision maker."
Luminis Health Breast Surgery patient Dr. Nikki Ham spoke with ABC 7 news about her experience with a double mastectomy and reconstruction, watch her story here.
