Season in full swing

Every year during when the weather is cold "up north" the weather stays nice here in Naples, and so the patient volume can triple secondary to seasonal residents seeking foot and ankle care in our center. This time seems hectic and many patients are trying to enjoy the time that they share between their northern homes and their vacation homes in this area. This can sometimes be hampered by injury, sickness, and even unforseen foot and ankle pain. At our center, we strive to reduce pains from tendonitis, relieve infections from insect bites and stingray punctures, and take care of any other short or long term concern which just will not succumb to the schedules of our patients during their vacations in Naples. We are constantly treating patients during their stay in our area and even if this is strictly temporary until they return North, we are able to guarantee excellent care by means of extensive training as well as by extensive experience.

Irregardless the size of the injury or extent of the infection, we will keep you safe until you can get home in time for the summer. With our electronic records system, we can even email records to a physician to fascilitate ease of transition from here to home. And we are glad to follow up with any concerns which may carry over from home to here as well. Keep that in mind as you walk the beachlines, or play tennis and golf and thing are just not feeling quite right. There is always enough time to get you at least on track towards enjoying the rest of your vacation if you are treated at FFLC.
