Digital X-Rays
At Hospital Plaza Foot and Ankle Institute, we value your time and are proud to offer our patients in-house, state-of-the-art digital radiographs. We understand that proper treatment begins with an accurate diagnosis, and our digital x-ray service enables us to diagnose and confirm any bone or soft tissue injuries and conditions that can be hard to determine through a physical exam.
Unlike traditional x-rays that use film, digital x-rays are safer exposing patients to less radiation and faster allowing doctors to view results within minutes. With this state-of-the-art technology, we can save you time and begin customizing treatment and therapies for your needs.

Echo Ultrasound
Our in-office echo ultrasound provides a real-time, non-invasive look at soft tissue structures, making it ideal for diagnosing tendon injuries, plantar fasciitis, and other common foot and ankle conditions. This quick, safe imaging tool allows for accurate assessments without radiation exposure.
Echo ultrasound is also an essential tool for guided injections and treatment planning, ensuring precision and reducing discomfort. At Hospital Foot and Ankle Institute, we use it to enhance both diagnosis and treatment outcomes.
Open MRI
For patients needing detailed imaging, our open MRI system delivers high-resolution images of bone and soft tissue without the discomfort of a traditional enclosed scanner. This advanced imaging allows us to detect ligament injuries, fractures, and other structural issues with exceptional clarity.
The open design helps reduce anxiety and is more comfortable for patients with claustrophobia or mobility issues. It’s a key part of our commitment to patient-friendly, comprehensive care.

Fluoroscan Motion Equipment
Our fluoroscan motion technology allows dynamic, real-time X-ray imaging of the foot and ankle during movement. This gives our specialists a better understanding of joint function and alignment in ways that static images cannot.
Fluoroscan is particularly valuable for diagnosing instability, joint abnormalities, or hardware placement after surgery. It enhances our diagnostic accuracy and helps guide treatment decisions in real time.
Arthroscopy Equipment
Using state-of-the-art arthroscopy tools, we perform minimally invasive procedures to diagnose and treat joint problems within the foot and ankle. This advanced technique allows for faster healing and less postoperative discomfort.
Arthroscopy is particularly effective for addressing cartilage damage, joint inflammation, and ligament injuries. At Hospital Foot and Ankle Institute, we prioritize minimally invasive solutions whenever possible to get you back on your feet faster.

Surgical Suite with On-Site Anesthesia
Our fully equipped surgical suite is designed specifically for foot and ankle procedures, ensuring a sterile, safe, and comfortable environment for both minor and complex surgeries.
With on-site anesthesia administered by experienced professionals, we offer seamless care from pre-op to post-op. This setup allows for better monitoring, faster recovery, and the convenience of having everything done in one location.
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT)
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses acoustic waves to stimulate healing in chronic soft tissue injuries. It’s especially effective for stubborn conditions like plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendinopathy.
This therapy promotes natural tissue regeneration, increases blood flow, and can significantly reduce pain without the need for surgery or prolonged downtime. At Hospital Foot and Ankle Institute, ESWT is part of our commitment to advanced, evidence-based care.

Radial Wave Therapy
Radial wave therapy offers a gentler alternative to traditional shockwave therapy and is ideal for treating inflammation, tight muscles, and soft tissue discomfort. It uses pressure waves to stimulate healing in superficial and moderately deep tissues.
This therapy is commonly used in early-stage conditions or as a complement to other treatments. Our clinicians tailor each session to your condition, helping you experience relief and improved mobility with minimal discomfort.

LASER Equipment
Our high-powered therapeutic laser technology provides a pain-free, drug-free approach to reducing inflammation, stimulating circulation, and accelerating tissue repair.
Laser therapy is particularly useful in treating chronic pain, neuropathy, and post-surgical swelling. It’s a versatile tool in our non-invasive treatment arsenal, helping patients return to normal activity more quickly and comfortably.
Laboratory Services
We provide on-site lab testing to support fast, accurate diagnosis of infections, inflammatory conditions, and metabolic disorders affecting foot and ankle health.
With in-house labs, we eliminate delays associated with external testing, so patients can begin treatment without unnecessary waiting. From wound cultures to blood work, our lab services streamline your care.
Nerve Conduction Studies
Nerve conduction studies help our specialists assess nerve function and pinpoint issues like neuropathy, tarsal tunnel syndrome, or nerve damage from injury or diabetes.
By measuring the speed and strength of electrical signals in the nerves, we can diagnose problems early and design a treatment plan that addresses both symptoms and root causes. It’s a crucial diagnostic tool for persistent numbness, tingling, or weakness in the feet and ankles.
