Last night on The Pitt, Dr. Samira Mohan shared that “you can learn a lot about your patients just by looking at their feet.” As the nation’s leading community of foot and ankle physicians, we agree! Healthy feet are key to overall health. Learn more on how to maintain foot health at our website: https://ow.ly/fRat50YzMf0
