Warts
Arthritis
Plantar Fasciitis
If you live in Leeâ€™s Summit and suffer from plantar fasciitis, this is great news for you. There is a new non-surgical alternative treatment for chronic heel pain due to plantar fasciitis. Itâ€™s called Â Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy or ESWT for short. In the past, if therapy was not effective, surgery was the treatment of choice. While usually successful, surgery has some downsides like limited mobility, a longer healing period, and the possibility of complications. ESWT doesnâ€™t have these drawbacks.
Primary Care
Please bring your insurance card. We will need a copy of it for our records. If your insurance plan requires that you have a referral from your primary care doctor, please obtain one before your appointment.

General Surgery
Whether the result of genetics, activity, infection, or disease, your feet can encounter a wide variety of ailments throughout your life. Foot conditions can be painful and limit your mobility, so itâ€™s important to seek professional help if you notice anything out of the ordinary. Kansas City Foot Specialists approaches foot and ankle disorders with conservative, non-invasive treatments as the primary option. However, should you require surgery for treatment, theÂ Surgery Center of Blue Valley Â is equipped with state-of-the-art technology that enables our staff to provide the high-quality surgical services you need.
Wound Care
Kansas City Foot Specialists pride ourselves on offering advanced treatment options to improve patient care and treatment results. We specialize in foot and wound care for patients affected byÂ diabetes. People with diabetes have an increased risk of developing complications from anyÂ wounds on their feet. These complications stem from a decrease in blood flow in the legs and feet, and a decrease in feeling in the hands and feet (neuropathy). The ability to feel a wound present on the feet is important for treatment and care. If you experience neuropathy, you may not know you have a wound on your feet until it is too late.
Ankle Surgery
Where do you go for excellent foot care in Leawood, KS? Kansas City Foot Specialists. At Kansas City Foot Specialists, we can help with any kind of foot problem youâ€™re experiencing. From diagnosing general foot problems, to managing foot diseases, deformities and trauma, to foot and ankle surgery, we can help get you back on your feet again.
Bunion Surgery
RICE (Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation) is very important during the recovery process to reduce pain, swelling and inflammation. Â Sutures are removed 10-14 days after the surgery and then patient’s will begin a range of motion exercises to regain flexibility to the joint. Typically, no impact or weight bearing exercise (running, jumping) is allowed after bunion surgery for several months.
Bunions
Our patients leave our office feeling satisfied with the way our staff carefully treated their conditions. From bunions to heel pain, neuromas to ankle problems, our staff gives our patients the highest level of treatment, sending them home happy with their results!
Gangrene
For diabetics and patients with low blood circulation, an ingrown toenail is even more threatening. An infection in these patientsâ€™ feet can turn into gangrene and spread the infection to other parts of the body, posing a serious health risk.
Ingrown Toenails
One of the most common conditions we treat at Kansas City Foot Specialists is ingrown toenails. An ingrown toenail is the result of the edge of a toenail growing into the skin surrounding the nail area. The condition may be no more than an irritation for some patients, but it can become infected and lead to more serious conditions.

Skin Cancer
Pigmented lesions should always be inspected and observed. Most pigmented areas are nothing but freckles and moles. However, a potentially deadly pigmented lesion that can occur on the foot and lower extremity is Malignant Melanoma
Corns
Corns are areas of thick skin that most commonly occur on the top of the toes. Generally there is an associated hammertoe deformity, which causes the toes to rub on the top of the shoes. Professional treatment is directed at correcting the hammertoe deformity. Small corns can also occur on the side of the little toe next to the toenail. A small bone spur causes this problem. Professional treatment consists of removing the bone spur. Bone spurs also cause corns between the toes.
Ulcer
If you have diabetes, pay special attention to your feet. At Kansas City Foot Specialists, we offer Â advanced treatment options for diabetics. Through continued education and regular appointments, we can help you determine if you are at risk for diabetes-related foot ulcers. If a wound goes untreated, it could develop into something more severe such as an ulcer and in a worst-case scenario, could require amputation.
Calluses
Are softer and meant to provide additional cushioning and support. They can be used to treat diabetic foot ulcers, painful calluses on the bottom of the foot, and other uncomfortable conditions.
Fungus
Lesions
. Although most commonly found in sun-exposed areas of the body such as the face, ears, and back of the hands, these lesions can also occur on the foot. They are characterized as either flat or elevated with a scaly surface. They can either be reddish or skin-colored. On the foot, they are frequently mistaken for
Psoriasis
A variant of psoriasis is called pustular psoriasis. This form of the disease is characterized by small pustules or blisters filled with clear or cloudy fluid. This can mimic acute athlete’s foot. It characteristically does not itch or burn. It is distinguished from athlete’s foot by negative fungal cultures. Psoriasis can also affect the joints of the feet and lower extremities causing a painful arthritis. X-rays will show characteristic erosions of the bones in the toes. Treatment consists of anti-inflammatory medications, steroids, and other medications specific for the treatment of psoriasis.

Physical Therapists

Sports Medicine
One of the most common causes of foot trauma is sports injuries. The human foot has 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments, 19 muscles, and numerous tendons. Itâ€™s no wonder sprains, tears, breaks and more happen daily on every school sports field from baseball to soccer to basketball. Where thereâ€™s sports, there will be sports injuries. And donâ€™t forget about the active adults who still partake in sports activities. No matter how young or old you are, your feet take a lot of abuse when you play a sport. Running, jumping, and cutting back and forth can exert 3-4 times the amount of a personâ€™s body weight on the feet and ankles. Additionally, direct impacts from tackles and other physical contact can create severe trauma. CommonÂ athletic foot injuries we see and treat Â include...
Physical Therapy
Treatment of tarsal coalition typically consists of conservative methods, including custom orthotics to decrease motion in the affected joints, physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medication, and cortisone injections. In more severe cases, surgery may be necessary. The goal of surgery is often to fuse the bones or joints together to inhibit the painful motion in the affected area. Recovery involves a period of time spent on crutches and wearing a cast on the foot.
Flatfoot Correction
Heel Pain
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

General Podiatry
A podiatrist, or Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (DPM), is the only health care professional whose total training focuses on the foot, ankle and related body systems.
Achilles Tendonitis
– inflammation of the tendon at the back of the heel. It is not a growth plate injury. Achilles tendonitis can actually be a contributing factor to Severâ€™s disease if the inflamed tendon pulls too hard on the growth plate of the heel bone. Symptoms of Severâ€™s Disease include pain and swelling in the heel(s), tenderness in the back of the heel, a surge in pain with activity and weight-bearing, and a tendency to walk on toes and keep weight off heels. This condition is most common among active and athletic adolescents between 8-15 years old, especially those who wear cleats for their activities. Males tend to be more affected than females.

Bunions Problems
The human foot has 26 bones, 33 joints, 107 ligaments, 19 muscles, and numerous tendons. It is one of the more complicated parts of the body. But Dr. Laha and his staff know exactly how to treat and repair foot problems. Whether youâ€™ve injured your foot or ankle, or have suffered from painful bunions for years, the foot doctors at Kansas City Foot Specialists can make it better.
Calluses
Diabetic Foot Care
Flat Feet
Fungus Toenails
Podiatrists are far more than simply foot doctors who treat toenail fungus, calluses, and bunions. In fact, your podiatrist is a highly trained foot and ankle specialist who has received in-depth training to address problems, injuries, and complaints of the lower extremities and perform surgery to fix these problems. A medical doctor, even if they are an orthopedist, has a broader, less focused base of training and education.
Hammertoes
Â€œThe care I received at the Kansas City Foot Specialists by Dr. Laha and his staff has been outstanding. Dr. Laha removed the bunion on my right foot big toe plus repaired the second toe hammertoe. From the beginning he listened with intent to the issues I was experiencing, and clearly provided a detailed explanation of my diagnosis plus available options. At any point when I had questions or needed clarification on a procedure or instructions, it was provided with courteousness by both Dr. Laha and his staff. I am extremely happy with my experience and the outcome. I have and will continue to recommend people to Dr. Laha and the Kansas City Foot Specialists.â€
