PAD Treatment from the Pros

Dallas Podiatry Works is committed to providing first-class care for your foot and ankle issues. In many cases, conservative care goes a long way towards helping restore your health and functionality. When it comes to a condition known as peripheral arterial disease (PAD), there are certainly benefits to making different lifestyle choices, but there are times when patients simply need more. In those cases, we are glad to provide professional treatment for PAD.

Steps you can take to help improve your circulation at home include dietary changes, workout programs, and quitting smoking and tobacco use, but sometimes you need some extra help. When it comes to getting the care you need in the DFW community, Dallas Podiatry Works is here for you!

A major help we can provide that you cannot find on your own is the prescription of medication used to achieve various objectives. Depending on your unique situation, you may benefit from:

Cholesterol-lowering medications. The goal with this medication is to lower levels of “bad” cholesterol (low-density lipoproteins) and reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack.
Blood pressure medications. High blood pressure is a contributing factor to PAD, so medication to make it drop can be effective in many cases.
Blood sugar medications. Individuals with diabetes benefit from medication that helps to control glucose levels.
Blood clot medications. With PAD already decreasing circulation, a blood clot could potentially result in tissue death. This medication can help prevent that.

Of course, medication isn’t the whole story. We mentioned earlier that you can benefit from taking such measures as changing your diet, getting regularly exercise, and smoking cessation. Well, we can help you create a diet of heart-healthy meals and recommend physical activities that will help improve your blood flow. Your health matters to us and, if it’s an issue for you, this means that we will do what we can to help you kick the smoking habit as well.

Curbing peripheral arterial disease will go a long way to improving not only the health of your feet, but also your overall wellness! Contact Dallas Podiatry Works today by calling at 972.853.7100 or fill out our online form to request an appointment. Remember, we are partners in your health, so call on us to provide the professional treatment for PAD you may need from our Dallas and Plano, TX offices.

The doctor has great “bedside manners” when talking to patients. Great staff and comfortable atmosphere.

The staff at Dallas Podiatry Works could not have been more courteous, helpful, and professional in doing their job. They made me feel comfortable when I was there, which is certainly appreciated. They answered all the questions that I had and just made each visit the most pleasurable that it could be. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing this type of foot care.

I would highly recommend Dr. Brook to anyone with foot problems–especially problems that stump other podiatrists. He really is very caring and very knowledgeable.

Dr. Joel Brook and the staff were nice and helpful. Though I was a new patient, I got right in as soon as they were open in my preferred location. They diagnosed the problem and provided medicines along with a perfect gel bandage so I could keep exercising while my toes healed. My toes already hurt less and look a little better each day. If I have future issues, I will be a repeat customer. Here’s hoping I don’t, but at least I know my feet are in good hands.

I visited this office for an ingrown toe nail a few years ago. After seeing another doctor, who made it worse, he referred me to Dallas Podiatry Works. The doctor there was able to fix my problem. I’m not great with reviews, all I can tell you is that this doctor and staff will have you up and running or doing whatever it is you do in no time. You will be in great hands. You’d be a fool not to use this doctor. Now its time to visit him again for the other toe.
