The doctors and staff of Indiana Podiatry Group would like to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Have a safe and happy holiday season!
As the weather begins to cool down and winter fast approaches, the dreaded heel crack begins to rear its head. Often the source of severe pain when the crack deepens and splits the underlying skin, heel cracks (or fissures) are easily prevented when one's skin is properly treated at home. This is much easier when using a product designed to counter the skin build up that leads to the heel crack. Our Calicylic cream is specially formulated by Gordon Labs to smooth the rough skin that is at the heart of the heel crack, as well as exfoliate the callus that allows the crack to deepen. Stop by one of our offices for this wonderful product this winter before your heel cracks develop.
We would like to remind all our patients who have delayed surgical or medical services due to higher deductibles that the year is ending, and many insurance plans reset those deductibles as of the first of the new year. Although our doctors make their medical recommendations based on your health needs and not your insurance situation, we understand that this difficult financial time forces some of our patients to rethink their priorities and delay the care our doctors have recommended. Many patients wait until the end of the year to have certain medical services performed, like surgeries and orthotics, when their deductible is met or nearly met. The doctors' schedules in the office and operating room are beginning to fill up due to this increased demand for their care. Make your appointment today to ensure your care is addressed prior to the new year. As always, all urgent matters and emergency cases will be handled immediately.
