Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

Podiatry (Foot & Ankle Surgery)6
Bunion Correction (Bunionectomy)The bony prominence at the base of the big toe is removed and the bone realigned, often with screws or plates. Recovery involves weeks in a protective shoe or boot, and swelling can persist for several months.Hammertoe CorrectionA toe permanently bent at the middle joint is straightened, sometimes with a temporary pin holding the correction. Considered when the toe rubs painfully in shoes or has developed calluses and sores.Plantar Fascia ReleaseThe tight band of tissue along the bottom of the foot is partially released to relieve stubborn heel pain. Reserved for cases that have not improved after months of stretching, orthotics, and other conservative treatment.Ankle ArthroscopyA small camera and instruments treat problems inside the ankle joint — impingement, loose fragments, or damaged cartilage — through incisions a few millimeters wide, avoiding a larger open exposure.Ingrown Toenail RemovalThe edge of a nail growing into the surrounding skin is removed under local anesthesia. When the problem keeps recurring, the nail-forming tissue at that edge is also treated so it does not grow back.Foot Fracture RepairBroken bones in the foot are realigned and stabilized with hardware so they heal in position. Because the foot bears your full weight with every step, alignment matters more here than the small bone size suggests.

Dr. Ullom is excellent. He explains everything very well and I love his bedside manner. He's easy to talk to and understand, and I thoroughly trust his expertise. He performed my bunionectomy at the end of 2024 and I am extremely satisfied with the results. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

What a wonderful staff! Went to my primary care who sent me to About Feet 1 hour later. They were able to see me same day! Dr. Parish was so thorough and explained everything!

I was very happy with the staff and mainly Dr Hearn! Dr Hearn explained everything in detail. I did not feel rushed! He listened to all my foot problems and did explain proper management plan. I will wholeheartedly recommend this doctor to anyone! Thank you for the care!

My wife had a small procedure done on her foot. Dr. Parish was wonderful. The entire staff made the office visit comfortable and very efficient from that start. Dr. Parish was very professional and knowledgeable. I highly recommend this office and staff. We are also a self pay client. We were treated very fairly and honestly. We can't say enough. Our experience was as good as it gets.

The doctor was able to explain my medical diagnosis thoroughly and didn't try to upsell me any unnecessary products or procedures. I would definitely recommend this place to friends and family. Although I'd say the nail fungal treatment they sell is pretty pricey but the price for their orthotics is very reasonable.
