Capital Foot Care

About Capital Foot Care

Capital Foot Care provides podiatric services to patients in Washington, DC and neighboring Maryland communities including Riverdale, Takoma Park, and Germantown. Dr. Herman Zarate, a board-certified podiatric surgeon fluent in English, Spanish, and French, leads a team that treats heel pain, bunions, hammertoes, and ingrown toenails through both conservative and in-office surgical approaches. The practice places particular emphasis on vascular health, screening for peripheral artery disease and managing the ulcers and circulation problems that can accompany it, alongside routine and diabetic foot care aimed at preventing complications such as nerve damage and non-healing wounds. Sports-related injuries are also addressed, with orthotic guidance offered to keep active patients comfortable during recovery. Same-day appointments, online scheduling, and walk-in visits make it easier for patients to be seen quickly, and weekend morning hours are available at select locations. Capital Foot Care describes its approach as centered on a professional, honest, and transparent style of health care.
