Performance Podiatry Partners

What Performance Podiatry Partners does

Performance Podiatry Partners is a private, 100% women-owned podiatry practice operating from a single location at 4805 N. Claremont Ave in Lincoln Square, Chicago. Founded in 2017 by Dr. Supna Reilly and Dr. Julia Sinclair, both board-qualified surgeons in foot and ankle surgery, the practice delivers conservative and surgical management of foot and ankle conditions to athletes, dancers, runners, performing artists, pediatric patients, and the general public. A third physician, Dr. Marlene Reid, joined the practice, bringing women's foot health and additional sports medicine expertise.

The clinical offering combines diagnostic imaging (digital X-ray), conservative interventions (custom orthotic devices, corticosteroid injections, exercise program modification, running shoe evaluation, visual running gait analysis), and an advanced treatment modality portfolio that includes Class IV therapeutic laser, radial and focused EPAT shockwave therapy, EMTT, Tenex percutaneous tenotomy, and minimally invasive bunion surgery. The practice differentiates itself through preferred-provider relationships with professional sports and performing arts organizations, including Chicago Fire (MLS), Chicago Area Runner's Association, Joffrey Ballet, Hubbard Street Dance, and Trinity Irish Dance Company, supported by adjunct faculty appointments at Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine and teaching roles at Ascension St. Joseph Hospital and Endeavor Health Sports Medicine Fellowship.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through professional service fees for clinical consultations, procedures, and surgical interventions, supplemented by hardware sales of custom orthotic devices. Patients access the practice via direct phone booking or an online appointment request form on a pay-as-you-go basis, with billing handled through an Instamed payment portal. Marketing is conducted through blog content, social media (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, LinkedIn), earned media in national publications, and community sponsorships. No external funding, M&A activity, or geographic expansion has been disclosed.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Weil Foot & Ankle Institute: Largest podiatry group in the Chicago metro area with multiple locations and a broad foot/ankle service menu. Comparable because it serves the same Chicago patient pool with overlapping podiatric services, though at greater scale and without PPP's sports/performing-arts specialization.
• Midwest Orthopaedics at RUSH: Chicago-based orthopedic specialty practice with strong sports medicine credentials, including care for elite athletes. Comparable because it competes for the same sports-medicine and foot/ankle patient population in Chicago, but at significantly greater scale as part of the Rush academic health system.
• NorthShore Orthopaedic & Spine Institute: Large multi-specialty Chicago-area orthopedic group offering foot and ankle care as part of its sports medicine portfolio. It competes for the same Chicago patient demographic but operates at institutional scale with broader orthopedic coverage.
• Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS): Premier U.S. orthopedic specialty hospital with a dedicated foot and ankle service treating elite athletes and dancers. Comparable because it serves a similar sports/performing-arts patient population with foot/ankle specialization, though at national-institution scale rather than local private-practice scale.
• Andrews Sports Medicine & Orthopaedic Center: Multi-location sports medicine practice in the Southeast treating professional and amateur athletes. Comparable because it focuses on sports-related foot/ankle and lower-extremity care with elite-athlete partnerships, mirroring PPP's positioning but at a larger multi-state scale.
• The Steadman Clinic: Specialty orthopedic/sports medicine clinic known for treating elite athletes across multiple sports. Comparable because it addresses the same sports-driven foot/ankle and lower-extremity needs for high-performance patients, although at national brand scale rather than local private-practice scale.

Direct peers

• Foot & Ankle Specialists of Illinois: Multi-location podiatry practice serving the greater Chicago area with conservative and surgical foot/ankle care. Comparable because it offers the same core podiatric services to a similar Chicago patient base, though without PPP's elite sports/dance partnership profile.
• AC Foot & Ankle Center: Multi-physician podiatry group providing foot and ankle care in the Chicago suburbs. Comparable because it is a direct private-practice podiatry competitor with similar clinical offerings and patient demographics.
• Precision Foot & Ankle Centers: Podiatry group practice offering conservative and surgical foot/ankle treatments in the Chicago region. Directly comparable as a competing private-practice podiatry group with overlapping service lines and patient segments.

Others

• Rosalind Franklin University Health System (Scholl College clinic): Academic podiatry clinic affiliated with Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine, where PPP's founders serve as adjunct faculty. Adjacent because it both trains future podiatrists and provides patient foot/ankle care in the Chicago region, sharing referral pipelines with PPP.
