Two of the staff at Madison Podiatry attended the North American Auto Show Charity Preview on January 13, 2012 at Cobo Hall in Detroit. The event is held every year at the beginning of the North American Auto Show to benefit children's charities in the Metro Detroit Area.

96% of the ticket price goes directly to the charities involved showing the real generosity of all involved in the event! Since 1976 the Charity Preview has raised more than $84 million for southeast Michigan children's charities.

The proceeds from the tickets purchased by the Madison Staff were earmarked to go to benefit "The March of Dimes" and "The Children's Hospital of Michigan Foundation".

We are pleased to be part of this worthwile event and have the opportunity to help out the children in our Community!!!!!!!!!111!!!!!!!

 

Madison Podiatry sponsored a "Help Stomp Out Hunger" food drive through The Gleaners in November and December 2011. We collected several hundred pounds of food along with some cash donations to assist our less fortunate friends in the community.

Madison Podiatry participated in the "Adopt-a-Family" program through The Volunteers of America to help to provide for a better Holiday Season this year for a needy family in our community.

Ingrown nails are nails whose corners or sides dig painfully into the skin, often causing infection. They are frequently caused by improper nail trimming, but also by shoe pressure, injury, fungus infection, heredity, and poor foot structure.

Toenails should be trimmed straight across, slightly longer than the end of the toe, with toenail clippers.

If they become painful or infected, contact our office. We may remove the ingrown portion of the nail, and if the condition reoccurs frequently, we may permanently remove the nail.
