Hello, I am Dr. Darron Barrus. Shelby Podiatry opened in May 1997. I graduated from podiatry school, completed my surgical residency , then joined the Army as a podiatrist at Ft Leonard Wood, MO. After completing my Army service I moved to Alabama and started working here. Podiatry is a medical field for foot care specifically.

Podiatrists treat different types of foot problems from skin and nails, to bone and joint issues in the foot. The most common foot problems I see are ingrown toenails and heel pain. Ingrown toenails can be treated in the office as same-day procedure with immediate relief. Heel pain is oftentimes a chronic problem made worse with increased activity.
Our office accepts most every insurance or those patients without insurance. We are very proud to have a friendly, caring staff who will happily book your appointment and answer your questions.
