Dr. Christian Morrison, a native of the remote northern Idaho backwoods, was homeschooled during his upbringing. After completing his LDS Mission in Las Vegas, Nevada, he returned to the city to earn his Bachelor of Sciences degree with a focus on Microbiology from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Subsequently, he pursued his Doctorate in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery at the California School of Podiatric Medicine at Samuel Merritt University in California. While he cherished his time in California, he was thrilled to relocate to his beloved state, Texas.
Dr. Asif Khan was raised in the metro Detroit area, and earned his bachelor's degree from the University of Michigan, Dearborn. He then went on to earn his doctorate in podiatric medicine and surgery from California School of Podiatric Medicine at Samuel Merritt University in Oakland, CA.
Dr. Khan returned to Michigan to complete his residency in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery at Beaumont Health, where he served as Chief Resident his final year of training. He then went on to complete a prestigious fellowship at Beaumont Health in Diabetic Limb Salvage and Wound Care.
Dr. Khan is Board Certified by the American Board of Podiatric Medicine (ABPM). He also holds the Certificate of Added Qualification in Amputation Prevention and Wound Care issued by the ABPM. Dr. Khan's research has been published in multiple medical journals.
In his free time, Dr. Khan enjoys spending time with his wife and son. He loves calling Texas home and serving the greater Dallas community.
Tell the front desk what is bothering your feet and whether Rockwall or Plano is easier for you to reach.
Bring your Medicare card and any supplement or Advantage card. We will verify your benefits and explain your options.
Your podiatrist looks at the problem, tells you plainly what is going on, and lays out the options.
*** Please note eligibility for all treatments varies based on insurance and conditions. We will let you know exactly what you qualify for when we contact you. Appointment wait times also vary based on availability.
New to the practice and on Medicare? Start with these answers before you call.
Usually, yes. Original Medicare generally does not require a referral to see a specialist, while Medicare Advantage plans set their own rules. If yours is an Advantage plan, the front desk can look up its requirements before you book.
When you call, ask for the earliest opening at either the Rockwall or Plano office. A foot problem that has changed recently is worth mentioning up front. Same-day and next-day appointments often available.
Yes. Most major insurance accepted, including Medicare. We will verify your benefits and explain your options. Your share of the bill comes down to the kind of Medicare you have and the care you get, and Advantage members should ask whether we are in their plan’s network when they call.
Medicare generally pays for podiatry that is medically necessary, such as treating an injury, a painful foot condition, or diabetic foot problems. Routine care like trimming nails or removing calluses usually is not covered unless a condition, such as diabetes with nerve damage, puts your feet at risk. Ask the office how your visit is likely to be billed.
Yes, Lonestar Podiatry & Wound Care accepts Medicare at its Rockwall clinic, where Dr. Christian Morrison, DPM, and Dr. Asif Khan, DPM, see patients. When a foot or ankle problem needs diagnosis or treatment, such as heel pain, an ingrown toenail that needs a procedure, an infection, a fall injury, or a sore that is slow to close, Part B of Original Medicare generally pays. Medicare Advantage plans cover the same services under their own rules and costs.
Nail trimming and callus care on otherwise healthy feet count as routine and usually are not covered. Some patients qualify for that care anyway, such as people with diabetes or with peripheral artery disease that reduces blood flow to the feet, once the condition is documented in the medical record.
With diabetic nerve damage and loss of protective sensation, a foot exam is covered every six months, provided you have not seen a foot care professional for another reason in between. Prescribed therapeutic shoes and inserts for qualifying patients with diabetes are covered when a Medicare-enrolled supplier provides them. Dr. Morrison and Dr. Khan trained for exactly these patients: both hold the American Board of Podiatric Medicine’s Certificate of Added Qualification in Amputation Prevention and Wound Care, and Dr. Khan completed fellowship training in Diabetic Limb Salvage and Wound Care.
Under Original Medicare, a provider who believes Medicare may deny payment for a service can give you a written Advance Beneficiary Notice beforehand; if you sign it, you will probably owe the cost when Medicare denies the claim. Covered care generally leaves you paying the Part B deductible, then 20 percent of the approved amount, which a supplement plan may help pay.
Patients in Rowlett, Royse City, Garland, Wylie, and Sachse can reach the Rockwall clinic of Lonestar Podiatry & Wound Care, at 6800 Heritage Pkwy, Suite 104, Rockwall, TX 75087, where the practice takes Medicare and a board-certified podiatrist is a short drive away. Families closer to Murphy can use the Plano office at 412 Village Dr, Suite 300.
Dr. Christian Morrison and Dr. Asif Khan carry hospital privileges at Medical City, Baylor, Texas Health, and Methodist, which helps when a foot problem needs care beyond the office. Their wound care focuses on the foot and lower leg, and the front desk speaks Spanish.
To book for yourself or a parent, call (972) 643-8242 and keep the Medicare card nearby, plus a supplement or Advantage card if you carry one. Some Advantage plans may require a referral or limit you to their network, and the staff can check that before the appointment.
