About The Practice
Cortez Foot & Ankle Specialists provides expert, award-winning podiatric care at its three offices serving the Bradenton, University Park, and Ellenton, Florida communities. The practice is staffed by seven experienced doctors, two OR nurses, and 15 podiatric and X-ray technicians to give you the best diagnostic, therapeutic, and surgical care.
Cortez Foot & Ankle Specialists offers a complete range of services for treating foot and ankle ailments. You benefit from the most modern diagnostic and therapeutic equipment available when it comes to problems like ankle pain, Achilles tendonitis, neuroma, ingrown toenails, and toenail fungus.
The providers diagnose and treat sports injuries and sprains. Your care plan can include physical therapy and innovative treatments like stem cell injections. The practice is a premier site for diabetic foot care, offering diabetic shoes and custom-molded orthotics.
The Bradenton office hosts a state-licensed, fully equipped podiatric surgery center. Having their own surgery centers expedites care, giving you the personal attention you need. It also reduces the trauma and cost associated with visiting an off-site clinic for foot and ankle surgery.

As an active individual, your feet are often subjected to intense physical activity, sweat, and wear and tear. Neglecting foot hygiene can negatively impact an athlete's performance and overall well-being.
If you sprain your ankle playing sports or by simply landing wrong when you walk or run, you do more than cause yourself a world of pain. Sprained ankles, if not treated, can heal imperfectly and put you at risk for chronic ankle instability.
Prevent unsightly toenail fungus with this quick guide to prevention and treatment. Clean feet, the right shoes, and antifungal products can help.
