As a practice of female-only, women-led providers, we believe in empowering other women to be in charge. That’s why we founded the Women Physicians of Orange County Organization to promote the professional development of women in the healthcare industry in Orange County. We strive to empower each other by advocating for women to study and practice medicine, providing nurturing mentorship programs, and developing community outreach projects for Orange County.

This advances community health and well-being and empowers women doctors to be even more successful as business owners and community leaders."

We only offer state-of-the-art equipment and modalities to ensure our patients receive the best care possible, which is the core of our commitment to our patients. At our Newport Beach office, some of our treatments utilizing the latest healthcare technology include:
Stem Cell Injection therapy and PRP injections, or Platelet Rich Plasma, promote the healing of soft tissues around the joints to treat injuries. The result is expedited recovery and reduced chances of surgical intervention.
Swift Microwave Therapy is the newest, non-invasive treatment option for Plantar warts. Swift taps into the healing power of the immune system to target the root cause of the wart. We are one of the only practices in all of Southern California with this cutting-edge technology.
Custom Corrective Orthotics that correct joint, foot, and imbalance issues. Foot & Ankle Specialty Group are the only providers in the area creating hand-molded custom orthotics. In contrast, others would have you step in a box or a scanner that takes an incorrect impression of the foot and does not correct alignment issues.
Top-of-the-line, noninvasive Laser Fungus Treatment can treat the common issue of toenail fungus. Our laser therapy for fungal nails has a high success rate and is pain-free.
Between all of our providers, we can treat all foot and ankle pathology, both conservatively and surgically. Foot & Ankle Speciality Group has the top surgical training of any foot and ankle surgeons in the country and are fully trained and certified in minimally invasive surgery.
We focus on the patient as a whole and believe in taking our time with each patient. Additionally, by having three doctors on staff, we can provide same-day availability for injury and trauma patients, which none of our competitors can offer.
