General Practitioners

Arthritis
There are two types of arthritis: Osteoarthritis (also called â€œwear and tearâ€ arthritis,) is the most common, typically brought on by the aging of joints. Cartilage breaks down over time, creating painful sensations and difficulty moving and articulating the joints. Rheumatoid arthritis is the most serious form and can be majorly crippling. In the foot, it is a chronic inflammatory problem affecting the feet and ankles.
Plantar Fasciitis
– Martial Arts and Kickboxing: Plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, sesamoiditis, and ankle sprains. Proper stretching is vital to injury prevention, specifically, a minimum of 15 minutes before beginning exercise.
Family Practice
Dr. Wendy Winckelbach specializes in many types of Foot and Ankle surgeries with special interest in diabetic foot health and limb salvage. She has been committed to educating family practice residents of the Franciscan St. Francis Health and teaching surgical techniques to podiatric residents attending the Community Westview Hospital residency programs. Additionally, Dr. Winckelbach has lectured to physician groups at St. Francis Hospitals as well as the general public on diabetic foot health.

Dr. Alleva is currently a member of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons, American Podiatric Medical Association and Indiana Podiatric Medical Association. She is board-Ââ€ qualified in foot and reconstructive rearfoot and ankle surgery by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery. She remains involved in the Community Health Network podiatric residency program. Dr. Alleva is on staff at Community Hospital South and St. Francis Health.
Bunions
Since bunions are a bone deformity, they will not heal by themselves. Treatments include adding protective padding to shoes, removing calluses, wearing custom fitted shoes, orthotic devices to slowly correct alignment, exercises, and splints.
Ingrown Toenails
This happens when the nail grows downward into the skin instead of straight out, usually causing an infection. Ingrown toenails are most common on the sides of the big toe. It can also be caused by shoe pressure, injury, fungal infections, poor foot structure, etc.

Dermatologists

Corns

Calluses
Although many people consider calluses to be a simple skin problem, it is actually an indicator of bone problems. In the foot, calluses are typically seen on the heels, balls of the feet, and on the outer side of the big toe. Calluses have their own nerves and sacks of fluid that act as cushioning, which can cause pain over time.
Fungus
Athleteâ€™s foot is a contagious fungal infection that mostly affects the feet, with the potential to spread to toenails and hands. The fungus thrives in warm, humid, and dark environments, which makes athletes more prone to the infection. Communal showers, swimming pools, and locker rooms are hotbeds for the bacteria.

Podiatrists

General Podiatry
That is why we offer the highest standard of care in podiatry. We seek to make your visit simple, stress-free, and effective! It is our goal to resolve your pain and function issues in a way that allows you to live the life you are accustomed to.
Achilles Tendonitis
Achilles tendonitis is an inflammation of the Achilles tendon, typically caused by overuse of the tendon during physical activity. This can include hill running, stair climbing, improper footwear, trauma caused by the sudden contraction of the calf muscle, etc.
Ankle Instability
Symptoms include recurring pain on the outside part of the ankle, ankle instability, difficulty walking on uneven ground, swelling, stiffness, and tenderness.
Ankle Sprain
– Team Sports: Baseball, basketball, soccer, football, field hockey, and lacrosse often lead to foot and ankle injuries. Artificial surfaces, improper footwear, and inadequate stretching are recipes for disaster. Make sure to wear proper shoes and stretch for at least 15 minutes before playing sports.
Arthritic Foot Care
Arthritis is the inflammation of the cartilage and lining of the joints. Although it can present itself at any age, arthritis is primarily found in those over 50.
Bunions Problems
Bunions are painful bone deformities in the big toe. When the toe is misaligned, the joint in the toe grows larger, creating a protuberance over time. These lumps can cause constant pain from rubbing against shoes, which in turn, irritates the joint resulting in a large bump.
Calluses
Diabetic Foot Care
Geriatric Foot Care

Hammertoes
Hammertoe is a condition where the second, third, or fourth toe, is bent at the middle joint, overlapping the toe(s) next to it. It is caused by improperly fitting shoes and problems with the toe muscles.
Heel Spurs
Heel pain is one of the most common complaints from patients. While heel spurs may or may not show up on an x-ray, the spurs themselves are a result of the actual problem: plantar fasciitis.
Heel Pain
Ingrown Toenails
We have all made the painful mistake of trimming our nails too short at some point in our lives. Sometimes, this can really affect our foot health by causing ingrown toenails.
Foot Injuries
Foot Warts
Warts can be very resistant to treatment and have a tendency to recur. Over-the-counter foot wart treatments are very often ineffective, destroying surrounding tissue and leaving the wart(s) intact.
Pediatric Foot Care
Pediatric foot conditions often go unnoticed and are often misdiagnosed. Most doctors dismiss any pediatric foot issues as being a part of normal structural development that children will eventually outgrow. However, foot problems are often prevalent in children due to their high levels of physical activity. Children are resilient, meaning that any potential foot issues may be overlooked.
Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is caused from inflammation of the connective tissue that stretches from the base of the toes to where it attaches to the heel bone. Symptoms include stiffness and tightness in the back of the leg and bunion joint, along with an uneven gait. Heel pain is often the first sign of plantar fasciitis.
Podiatric Surgery
She received her Doctorate in Podiatric Medicine from Scholl College of Chicago, Illinois in 2001. While a student, Dr. Winckelbach was awarded an Albert Schweitzer Fellowship in 1998. After receiving her DPM she completed a Post Graduate Surgical Residency at St. Maryâ€™s Medical Center in Hobart, Indiana. She is board certified in foot surgery.
