Best Foot Forward Podiatry

About Best Foot Forward Podiatry

Best Foot Forward Podiatry is a direct-pay practice in Santa Barbara led by Nicole Naz Mehr, DPM. The practice treats plantar fasciitis, bunions, tendonitis, flat feet, ankle sprains, ingrown and fungal toenails, neuromas, corns and calluses, arthritis, hammertoes, warts, and neuropathy, favoring conservative and alternative options before considering surgery. Diabetic foot care, wound care, and custom orthotics are available alongside on-site digital X-rays. Rather than billing insurance directly, fees are collected at the time of service, with invoices provided so PPO patients can pursue their own reimbursement; the model is intended to allow longer visits and closer attention to each patient's needs. Same or next-day appointments are offered whenever possible, and Dr. Mehr also makes home visits for patients unable to travel to the office, along with providing second opinions for those considering surgery as their only option.
