There’s nothing worse than being in pain and not being able to get an appointment to see your doctor. Some doctors require appointments to be scheduled months in advance. That is not the case at Cortez Foot and Ankle Specialists. With three locations to choose from, patients are able to receive timely care with a minimal wait time for appointments and usually same-day service for emergency cases.

Cortez Foot and Ankle Specialists prides itself in being a true hometown business with a singular commitment to patient care.Founded 34 years ago by Drs. Saul Ladd and Alan Katz, the practice offered the first podiatric surgery center in the state. Although they are still at their original Cortez Road office which has been enlarged and modernized, their practice now includes seven boardcertified doctors, a state-of-the-art surgical center, and two additional locations in Sarasota and Parrish.

Cortez Foot and Ankle Specialists treat all manner of foot and ankle ailments, from bunions and ingrown toenails to ankle sprains and forefoot fractures. They work with diabetic patients to treat and ward off possible foot-related complications. Their highly trained physicians and staff are committed to research and educating patients on preventative health care measures. They also use the latest technology, such as digital radiography and shockwave therapy, to ensure patients receive the highest possible standard of care.
