The pain of hammertoes, corns, bunions, or injuries
can make it hard to walk...stand...or do just about
anything. Many people who suffer from foot pain go to
their family physician, who, chances are, is not a foot
specialist. Many area physicians refer their patients
to Thomas A. Graziano, DPM, because they know an experienced
podiatrist provides the best diagnosis and treatment
for painful foot and ankle problems.
Born and raised in Clifton, New Jersey, Dr. Graziano
is a board certified podiatric physician and surgeon
with years of experience. He was one of the first podiatrists
to bring minimally invasive advancements and sophisticated
reconstructive techniques to New Jersey residents. His
approach is based on a strong commitment to quality,
and a genuine concern for each patient's individual
needs.
Worried About Surgery? Don't Be
Though he specializes in minimally invasive surgery,
Dr. Graziano always examines non-surgical solutions
first. If your problem can be solved with orthotics,
therapy, or medication - that's what he'll recommend.
He combines multiple treatment methods to get you out
of pain quickly to ensure that you don't miss a single
step of your busy life.
Rest Assured When Surgery Is Necessary
As a leading foot surgeon, Dr. Graziano uses the latest
minimally invasive procedures for faster, more effective
treatments with less discomfort than other methods.
He is recognized by his peers for his advancements in
arthritis care.
Lasting Solutions For Every Step Of Your Life
Untreated foot problems can often lead to future complications
and increased discomfort. A visit to Dr. Graziano will
do more than just end your immediate pain - he will
do everything possible to make sure your pain does not
return. He offers advanced technologies to solve your
pain permanently, including custom-designed orthotics
for maximum shoe comfort and a carbon dioxide laser
for minor soft-tissue problems.
Treatment Within Your Reach
No one should ever put off getting the care they need
because of cost. Dr. Graziano accepts most insurance
plans and also welcomes Visa, MasterCard, and American
Express. He is available for all your foot and ankle
care needs, and he'll even take the time to see you
on your lunch hour or in the early evening. Call us
today and find out if Dr. Graziano can make a difference
in your life!
Varicose Veins / Spider Veins
Do you have unsightly varicose veins or spider veins?
Spider veins or telangiectasis of the legs are a common
problem that particularly affect women. Small purple,
blue or red veins can form anywhere on the leg, from
the top of the thigh to the ankle. These veins appear
as connected lines resembling a sunburst or spider web
pattern or as short, unconnected lines.
Varicose veins are larger, sometimes raised veins
which are often blue in color. These are not the deep
veins connected to the valve system, however, they
can become quite painful, producing a burning or throbbing
sensation.
Dr. Graziano has special advanced training in the
diagnosis and treatment of these vein conditions.
He works with a team of specialists to provide comprehensive
care of varicose veins and spider veins. Most often
these treatments can be performed in an office setting
without any hospital stay. Please call his office
for a complimentary consultation concerning all your
treatment options and for information on the most
modern techniques available to you.
Medicare Diabetic Shoe
Program
Diabetes is reaching epidemic proportions in the United
States. During the past decade, there has been an increase
of 33% with the diabetic population currently topping
16 million people. There are many complications associated
with diabetes including kidney, heart, vision, circulatory
and foot problems. The good news is that many of these
potential problems can be minimized as a result of life
style changes, medications and other preventive care.
Amputations, or partial amputations, of the feet and
legs are also growing at an alarming rate. Infact, diabetes
is the leading cause of non-traumatic amputations in
the United States. Recently a task force was created
by officials from Medicare, the American Podiatric Medical
Association and the American Diabetes Association in
order to explore ways to reduce the number of amputations
in the diabetic population. The number of these lower
extremity amputations grew by 28% in just the past several
years. However, it has been determined that over half
of these amputations could have been prevented by timely,
conservative foot care.
We are authorized Medicare Suppliers to evaluate, prescribe
and dispense high quality shoes and 3 pairs of removable
shoe inserts per calendar year. Many diabetic patients
qualify for this benefit and Medicare will pay 80% of
the cost for the shoes and insoles. Your supplemental
insurance should pay the other 20%. |
