Top 5 Foot and Ankle Concerns We Treat in West Chester, PA

By the Experts at Curalta Foot + Ankle – West Chester South

At Curalta Foot + Ankle in West Chester South, PA, we see a wide range of foot and ankle issues every day. Our board-certified podiatrists provide advanced, compassionate care tailored to your unique lifestyle and needs. Whether you’re an athlete, a busy professional, or managing chronic health conditions, our team is here to help you walk comfortably and confidently again.

Here are the top five concerns our West Chester South patients commonly seek treatment for:

1. Bunions and Hammertoes

Bunions—bony bumps that form at the base of the big toe—can cause persistent pain and shoe discomfort. Hammertoes, meanwhile, create abnormal bending in the middle joints of the toes. At Curalta, we offer both non-surgical management (orthotics, shoe modifications) and surgical solutions when necessary. Our specialists, including Dr. Caitlin Madden and Dr. Alexandra Grulke, bring years of surgical expertise to ensure long-lasting relief.

2. Heel Pain & Plantar Fasciitis

One of the most common conditions we treat is heel pain caused by plantar fasciitis—inflammation of the thick band of tissue running along the bottom of your foot. Our West Chester providers use cutting-edge diagnostics and personalized treatment plans, which may include physical therapy, custom orthotics, and minimally invasive procedures to reduce inflammation and restore mobility.

3. Sports Injuries & Ankle Sprains

Whether you’re a weekend warrior or competitive athlete, ankle sprains, Achilles injuries, and stress fractures are all too common. Dr. Tarek (Ty) Sayed and Dr. Neha Atyam specialize in sports medicine and foot/ankle trauma, providing advanced imaging, bracing, and rehab strategies to get you back in action.

4. Diabetic Foot Conditions & Wound Care

Patients with diabetes are at higher risk for nerve damage, ulcers, and slow-healing wounds. Our providers, including board-certified wound care specialist Dr. Alexandra Grulke, focus on limb preservation and preventive care. From routine foot exams to surgical wound debridement, we ensure you get proactive, comprehensive diabetic foot care.

5. Arthritis & Joint Pain

Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis can all affect your foot and ankle joints, leading to stiffness and reduced mobility. We help patients manage pain with joint injections, custom footwear, physical therapy, and surgical correction when necessary.
