About Samson Foot + Ankle, PA: Richard Samson, DPM, FACFAS

Samson Foot + Ankle, based in Oakland, Maine, is led by Richard T. Samson, DPM, a Diplomate of the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery who has practiced in the Waterville area for close to three decades. He was the first podiatrist in Maine granted surgical privileges for the ankle in addition to the foot, and he continues to perform surgical procedures on staff at MaineGeneral Medical Center's Thayer Campus. The practice treats Achilles tendon injuries, ankle sprains, bunions, plantar fasciitis and heel pain, calluses, flat feet, hammertoes, and neuromas, combining conservative approaches such as custom orthotics and physical therapy with advanced procedures when needed. Dr. Samson also manages diabetic foot care, focused on preventing complications and preserving patients' independence. The practice operates under a direct-care model, allowing extended appointment times and transparent, upfront pricing without the delays typically associated with insurance pre-authorization.
