In order to help you make a more informed decision regarding your health, we put together this guide of the 10 Best Podiatrists in St Louis Who Accept Medicaid

 

(Below is a list of doctors with different specialties who accept Medicaid)

 

 

A podiatrist is a physician who has gone to medical school and graduated with a Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM) degree.

They specialize in the treatment of foot and ankle disorders, including foot and nail infections, neuromas, hammer toes, arthritis, foot pain, correction of walking patterns, surgical removal of bunions and tumors, and more.

Any disorder related to the feet and ankles will be best treated by a podiatrist. Besides a broad specialization in the feet, some podiatrists may also choose to focus on podiatric surgery, sports medicine, diabetes, or pediatric podiatry, among other specializations.
