Treatments include all 3 components. Common ailments treated in the foot and ankle include: plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinitis, Achilles tendinosis, and stress fractures.

The kindest man. He cares about you as a person. As a doctor, he is amazing. He explains things so, as a patient, you can make an educated decision. I am so happy with my surgery and feel so much better. I am glad he was there for me as a doctor.
Dr Jeff Bray has helped me through issues with my feet now for years. He is very talented and was able to diagnose what was going on with me when others just wanted me to take medication and have an expensive surgery, which I learned was unnecessary. He is a very professional and a joy to talk to. He truly cares about his patients.
