Foot care at home in Lake County
Getting to a foot specialist in Lake County can mean busy stretches of US-30, I-65 and Broadway, plus parking lots and waiting rooms. For someone who uses a walker or wheelchair, or who has stopped driving, that trip can take most of a day and a family member's time off work.
A house call skips all of that. Dr. Peerbhai comes to the house, apartment or assisted living community, checks the feet in the place where the patient walks every day, and treats nails, corns, calluses and wounds on the spot. Families in Munster, Schererville, Crown Point and Merrillville often set up visits for a parent who lives nearby.
