Bright eyes for the new year: Rejuvenate your look.

Many people look for ways to refresh their appearance as the new year begins, and the delicate undereye area is often a focal point. The lower eyelids are among the first areas to show signs of fatigue, aging and volume loss, especially after the hustle and bustle of the holiday season.

Noticing a painful bump at the base of your big toe or your toe starting to shift out of place?

It could be a bunion, a common foot condition that develops when the joint at the base of the big toe becomes misaligned.

At Prairie Orthopaedic & Plastic Surgery, our Podiatrists provide expert evaluation and personalized treatment options for foot conditions, including bunions.

If foot pain is affecting your mobility or quality of life, schedule an appointment with Dr. Dodson, Dr. Krejci-Reed or Dr. Ternent to explore your options.

Did you know April is National Foot Health Awareness Month? 👣

Research shows that about 20% of Americans experience at least one foot problem each year—and with many of us taking around 10,000 steps a day, it’s easy to see why foot health matters! If you’re not quite at that step goal yet, it’s a great one to work toward.

Healthy feet are the foundation for your entire body, take care of them!
