Midori Higashi, D.P.M.
Dr. Higashi is a board-certified surgeon who specializes in foot and reconstructive/rear foot and ankle surgery by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery.
Her patient/physician philosophy: “I do my absolute best to help my patient understand their condition. I feel the better a patient understands their particular problem, the more involved we can be together as a team in treating the condition and finding a positive solution.”
