What Our Patients Say

Your First Heel Pain Visit, Step By Step

1

Reach The Office Your Way

Pick a time online in a few clicks, or call and tell us where your heel hurts. We will verify your benefits and explain your options.

2

Get Seen Soon, Often The Same Day

New to the practice? Ask for the earliest opening when you book. Same-day and next-day appointments are often available.

3

Get A Diagnosis And A Plan That Fits

A board-certified podiatrist examines your heel, orders an X-ray when it is needed, and explains whether shockwave therapy, custom orthotics, PRP, or another option makes sense for you.

Two things differ from patient to patient: how soon an opening comes up, and which treatments, shockwave included, your coverage and diagnosis allow. Our front desk goes over that second part with you.

What Patients Want To Know About Shockwave Therapy For Heel Pain

Heel pain patients usually ask the same few things before they book.

Usually not. For most patients, a call or a few clicks online is enough to get on the schedule. What comes after that hinges on your insurance and the problem you come in with, and the front desk can fill you in.

Same-day and next-day appointments are often available. If heel pain is keeping you off your feet, call and we will look for the earliest time that works for you.

Coverage for shockwave therapy varies from plan to plan. We accept most major insurance, including Medicare, and we will verify your benefits and explain your options before you decide.

Sorting that out is part of the first exam. Our podiatrists examine your heel first, then explain which options fit your diagnosis. Questions before then can go to the front desk at (972) 643-8242 or through the Ask A Question form.

Is Shockwave Therapy Right for Your Heel Pain? A Podiatrist Checks First

Shockwave therapy, also called extracorporeal shockwave therapy or ESWT, is a non-surgical, in-office treatment for chronic heel pain, most often plantar fasciitis that has not settled with rest, stretching, and store-bought inserts. At Lonestar Podiatry & Wound Care, Dr. Christian Morrison or Dr. Asif Khan decides whether it suits your heel. Each is board-certified by the American Board of Podiatric Medicine and holds its Certificate of Added Qualification in Amputation Prevention and Wound Care. The doctor examines your foot, orders an X-ray when one is needed, confirms the diagnosis, and walks you through your options at that same visit.

Along with shockwave, the practice offers custom orthotics with gait analysis, PRP injections as a regenerative option, and laser treatment for pain and inflammation. What you qualify for also depends on your insurance, and the office confirms it when it contacts you.

Call (972) 643-8242 to ask whether shockwave therapy is an option for your heel pain.
