Premier Foot & Ankle Center

What Premier Foot & Ankle Center does

Premier Foot & Ankle Center is a privately held podiatric medical practice operating two clinical locations in the Chicago suburbs of Illinois — Oakbrook Terrace (1S067 Summit Ave) and Crest Hill (2224 Weber Road). The practice is staffed by three board-certified practitioners: Dr. Joseph Coscino (ABFAS Board Certified Surgeon, 25+ years), Dr. Heidee Kalmar (ABFAS Board Certified Surgeon and Army Veteran, 15+ years), and Dr. Yusuf Aslam (Board Certified Podiatric Physician and Surgeon). Service scope spans general podiatry (bunions, hammertoes, plantar fasciitis, ingrown toenails, tendinitis, plantar warts, ankle sprains and fractures), surgical procedures (bunion surgery and a branded Joint Salvage technique that preserves the patient's natural joint), custom orthotics, diabetic footwear, and senior fall-prevention solutions.

The practice pairs its clinical services with proprietary retail products distributed exclusively through the office. Clear Nails Pro is a prescription-strength topical anti-fungal solution (Ciclopirox 6%, Terbinafine 6%, Fluconazole 2%) formulated to penetrate the nail plate and nail bed. The Balance Brace is a lightweight, easy-to-don ankle brace targeted at seniors for fall prevention. Diagnostic capability on-site includes X-Ray, CT, MRI, and ultrasound. Patient intake is supported by NexHealth online scheduling and Zocdoc, bill payment is handled via Clearent, and the practice maintains visibility on healthcare directories including Amita Health, ShareCare, and WebMD.

Premier Foot & Ankle Center is a direct-to-consumer healthcare provider with no disclosed private equity, venture, or parent-company involvement. Revenue is generated through professional services (office consultations, imaging, therapeutic and surgical procedures, billed through insurance or self-pay at point of service) and hardware sales (Clear Nails Pro, diabetic shoes, custom orthotics, Balance Brace, sold on-site during patient visits). Customer acquisition is driven by patient reviews, physician-directory presence, community referrals, and educational content marketing. The legal entity is governed under the laws of the State of Illinois and operates under the DBA "Oakbrook Podiatrist."

Emerging players

• Vionic Shoes: Footwear brand specializing in orthotic-style comfort and support shoes sold through medical professionals and retail. Adjacent to Premier's orthotics/diabetic shoe business, representing consumer-side competition for therapeutic footwear purchases.

Broad incumbents
