Colorado Center for Podiatric Sports Medicine

Colorado Center for Podiatric Sports Medicine is a podiatry practice focused on foot and ankle injuries in athletes and active people, including weekend runners and pro players. Its services include shockwave therapy, MLS laser treatment, PinPointe Footlaser therapy for toenail fungus, computerized gait analysis, and custom athletic orthotics, with soccer-specific orthotics made by a lab that also serves the U.S. national soccer teams. The practice also treats arthritis and diabetes-related foot problems and offers Orpyx SI sensory insoles that track plantar pressure for diabetic patients.

The practice is by appointment only, at Professional Lane in Longmont, and it serves patients from Longmont, Niwot, Erie, Lafayette, Louisville, Superior, Mead, Berthoud and other Front Range communities. Patients can bring their soccer cleats to an appointment for an evaluation of uppers, insoles, midsoles and studs. Dr. James Yakel, a former athlete, leads the practice, and telemedicine visits are listed on the site.
