Expert foot & ankle care for DeLand and West Volusia.
From Stetson University to the historic downtown, DeLand residents trust Volusia Foot & Ankle Center for specialist care worth the drive — advanced wound care, reconstructive surgery, and everyday podiatry handled by a fellowship-trained surgeon.
Led by Nikul Panchal, DPM, FACFAS, our practice provides comprehensive podiatric medicine and surgery: conservative care first, advanced technology like custom orthotics and diagnostic ultrasound, and modern surgical correction when it's truly needed.
Heel pain and plantar fasciitis, ingrown toenails, diabetic foot care and wound management, bunion and hammertoe correction, sports injuries, and pediatric podiatry — see all treatments.
West Volusia has good primary care, but advanced foot and ankle problems often mean a referral east — and that's where we come in. DeLand patients most often make the drive for the things that are hard to find close to home: fellowship-level reconstructive surgery, serious wound care and limb preservation, and second opinions before committing to an operation someone else proposed. For care at that level, forty minutes is a short trip.
DeLand's mix of an active downtown, a university campus, and rural and equestrian properties produces its own patterns: boot-related pressure problems, puncture wounds from yard and barn work (see us promptly — punctures infect easily), athletic injuries from Stetson students, and diabetic foot care for long-time residents. Whatever brings you east, we make each visit count so return trips are only scheduled when they're truly needed.
From DeLand, our Daytona Beach office is typically about a 35–40 minute drive east on US-92 (International Speedway Boulevard) — a straight shot across the county. Many patients pair their visit with other Daytona errands, and we schedule with the drive in mind: appointments start on time.
We welcome patients from downtown DeLand and the Stetson University area, Victoria Park, Glenwood, Lake Helen, and the surrounding West Volusia communities. Call (386) 217-6556 for directions and same-week availability.
