What Is the Difference Between a Podiatrist and an Orthopedist?
A podiatrist is an expert in the foot and ankle, along with the skin, blood vessels, and nerves that are associated. An orthopedic doctor addresses other body parts, such as the knees, hips, and spine. Orthopedists are bone and joint specialists, whereas podiatrists are foot and ankle specialists. If you are unsure about which type of doctor to see, consult with Dr. Danielle L. Shaper, DPM. Finesse Foot Care’s office is open and currently accepting new patients to meet all podiatric concerns.
