Our specialty practices
Focused care for nerves and for surgery
Ozturk Foot & Ankle has two specialty practices, each with its own website of in-depth guides. Same physician, same offices, same phone number: 908-215-5953.
Surgical care of the foot, ankle and lower leg
Center for Lower Extremity Surgery
Some foot and ankle problems need an operation, and many don’t. The Center brings together everything about surgical care of the foot, ankle and lower leg: when surgery is considered, how each operation works, and what recovery really involves.
When you might be seen through the Center for Surgery
- A bunion, hammertoe or arthritic joint that limits your life despite non-surgical care
- An ankle that keeps giving way, or a tendon that has torn
- A fracture that needs fixation
- Flatfoot or a high arch that is progressing
- A second opinion before, or after, foot or ankle surgery
Nerve conditions of the foot, ankle and leg
Lower Extremity Nerve Institute
Burning, tingling, numbness and electric-shock pain come from nerves, and they need a different kind of evaluation. The Institute focuses on nerve problems of the foot, ankle and leg, from compressed nerves that can be released to nerve injuries after surgery or trauma.
When you might be seen through the Nerve Institute
- Burning, tingling or numbness in the feet
- Sharp pain between the toes, like a pebble in the shoe
- Heel pain that hasn’t behaved like plantar fasciitis
- Nerve pain after an injury or an operation
- Pain after an amputation

If you need surgery or specialist nerve care, it continues with the same physician.
