Initial visit with a new practice. I am in my 40s with a lot of active years to preserve in my future. I scheduled an appointment with Timberline because their reviewers seemed to share a similar sentiment. I was not disappointed. The doctor listened, took X-rays and suggested basic exercises plus a potential gear switch so as not to aggravate the inflammation. Minor intervention approach is what I was after and that’s what I received. If needed, I will return with confidencePosted on Google![]()

Golden Foot Pain, Answered
Golden Foot & Ankle Pain: Common Questions
These are the questions Dr. Sullivan hears most often from patients in your community.
When should an athlete see a podiatrist for a foot or ankle injury?
If pain lasts more than a few days, you can't bear weight normally, or the same injury keeps recurring. Early evaluation prevents minor injuries from becoming chronic.
Can a podiatrist help with golf or sports foot pain?
Absolutely—it's one of the most common reasons active patients visit. Care may include gait analysis, orthotics, or shockwave therapy.
What causes top of foot pain?
Top of foot pain in active individuals is most often caused by extensor tendinitis (inflamed tendons), stress fractures from repetitive activity, midfoot arthritis, or nerve compression. Tight shoes are a frequent contributing factor. Because several different structures run across the top of the foot, an accurate diagnosis is essential—treatment differs significantly depending on whether the cause is a tendon, bone, or nerve issue
When should I see a podiatrist for foot pain?
See a podiatrist if your foot or ankle pain has lasted more than two weeks, is getting progressively worse, is accompanied by swelling, bruising, or numbness, or is affecting your ability to walk and participate in daily activities. You should also seek care promptly for any open wounds on your foot—especially if you have diabetes—or if you suspect an injury. anesthetic to remove the problematic nail border and prevent regrowth. Most patients feel significant relief the same day
