Arthritis in the big toe joint can be a real pain! Some people with big toe arthritis mistakenly think they have a bunion, which also affects the big toe, however, these two disorders are very different from each other, and are treated differently.
During this uncertain time of the Coronavirus outbreak, many Americans are unsure of where they can go or what activities they can participate in safely. One such activity that people are avoiding, understandably, is doctor visits. Foot Specialists of Memorial would like to assure you that we are doing whatever we can to minimize patient exposure risk. We are taking extra precautions such as pre-screening patients prior to their appointment for signs or symptoms of infection, keeping our waiting room empty and bringing patients directly into a treatment room, enforcing visitor restrictions, and thoroughly disinfecting all surfaces after each patient encounter. Our offices are OPEN and seeing patients. If you are uncomfortable with an office in a hospital setting, we suggest an appointment at our Greenhouse Road location. It is a freestanding building not associated with a medical complex. There is immediate access to the office on the first floor with minimal contact with the general population. We are also offering TELEHEALTH visits, where you can be treated online by one of our doctors from the comfort of your home. We will remain available to serve your foot and ankle needs during this trying episode in our country. Please contact our office if we may be of service or if you have any questions, 713-464-3775.
