Onychomycosis afflicts approximately 50% of the people over the age of 45 in the United States. It can be easily contracted from our everyday environment, such as nail salons or gyms. Athletes are also susceptible to acquiring the fungus from trauma to the nailplate with running, hiking or dance.

Topical medications are minimally effective and oral medications have high reoccurrence rate, require frequent blood draws to monitor the liver, and have many side effects. No current treatment has demonstrated significant results until now. California Foot and Ankle are now lasering fungal toenails with a 90% efficacy rate. All ten nails are lasered and patients can return back to normal activities the same day. Nails can still be painted and regular shoes can still be worn. Results can be expected in 8-10 months with nail growth.

California Foot and Ankle Associates have been providing state of the art and personalized care to residents of Orange County for 20 years. Dr. Philip Radovic and his associate, Dr. Ekta Shah, treat all foot and ankle ailments. To find out more information on the laser or other new cutting-edge treatments, please visit www.feetfixer.com.
