Welcome to New Orleans Podiatry! Follow The Steps to Help Prepare for Your Visit

What You Should Bring to Your First Visit

Step 1

  • A current photo ID
  • Your insurance card (if applicable)
  • Any documentation related to your condition, including:
  • A list of symptoms you’re experiencing
  • When you first noticed these symptoms
  • Time(s) of day when discomfort is at its worst
  • Any home remedies or over-the-counter products you’ve tried
  • Records of previous physician visits or treatments for this condition

What to Expect During Your First Visit

Step 2

  • Dr. Lang will conduct a focused review of your symptoms and medical history.
  • Based on the findings, Dr. Lang will determine the origins of your foot or ankle condition.
  • You’ll receive a clear diagnosis and a range of treatment options.
  • Together, you and Dr. Lang will decide on a treatment protocol tailored to your lifestyle, health insurance plan, and budget.
  • If you're not being seen for a dermatological condition, a diagnostic evaluation will be performed (Step 3).

Diagnostic Evaluation

Step 3

  • Dr. Lang will order x-rays and/or a sonogram of your foot or ankle.
  • These imaging studies are performed in-office during your visit.
  • The purpose of these tests is to locate the source of your foot or ankle pain.
  • In some cases, you may be referred for an MRI or CT scan for further evaluation.
