Foot and Ankle Specialists of Nevada

What Foot and Ankle Specialists of Nevada does

Foot and Ankle Specialists of Nevada is a privately-held podiatric medical practice headquartered at 6120 S. Fort Apache Rd., Suite 100, Las Vegas, NV. Founded in 1996, the practice is led by Dr. Anthony Ricciardi Jr., a Temple College of Podiatric Medicine graduate with a two-year surgical residency in reconstructive foot and ankle surgery from St. Mary's Hospital in Hoboken, NJ. The practice delivers comprehensive foot and ankle care through both surgical and non-surgical modalities, organized around condition-specific centers including the Heel Pain Center of Nevada, the Bunion Treatment Center of Nevada, and the LEAP Center for Lower Extremity Amputation Prevention.

The clinical offering combines minimally invasive surgical techniques with advanced equipment-based therapies. Notable capabilities include MLS Laser Therapy, a Weight-Bearing CT scanner for diagnostic imaging under load, the LunulaLaser for fungal nail treatment, Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology (EPAT) shockwave therapy, PRP and amniotic fluid regenerative injections, and endoscopic tarsal tunnel decompression — a procedure for which the practice is among a very small number of clinics in the country trained. The practice also prescribes custom orthotics, performs limb salvage procedures, and resells a line of wellness supplements through a partner.

The business operates on a fee-for-service model, monetizing office consultations, procedures, and surgical interventions primarily through third-party reimbursement. The practice is in-network with Medicare, Medicaid, Medicare Advantage, and 70+ commercial insurance plans, plus workers' compensation and attorney-lien cases, collecting copays at time of service. Patient acquisition is direct-to-consumer via phone, online appointment requests, condition-specific SEO pages, an educational blog, organic Facebook and X/Twitter presence, and Google reviews. The firm has no disclosed funding, no institutional ownership, no mobile app, and no API or software product surface.

Products and services

• Minimally Invasive Heel Spur Surgery A minimally invasive surgical procedure for heel spur removal, offering faster recovery and less discomfort compared to traditional open surgery for patients with heel spurs and plantar fasciitis.
• PRP Therapy (Platelet Rich Plasma) Regenerative treatment that uses concentrated platelets from the patient's own blood, re-injected into injury sites to induce the body to repair damage to muscle, tendons, ligaments, and soft tissue.
• Amniotic Fluid Injection Therapy Regenerative therapy using amniotic fluid injections to harness the body's natural healing abilities to repair damaged tissue in foot and ankle conditions.
• MLS Laser Therapy FDA-approved laser therapy using specific wavelengths of light to treat painful conditions; delivers rapid pain relief, anti-inflammatory effects, and timely healing of injuries.
• Shockwave Therapy (EPAT) Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology using high-energy sound waves to stimulate healing and reduce pain non-invasively without anesthesia, scarring, or downtime.
• Nail Laser Therapy (LunulaLaser) FDA-approved, non-invasive cold laser treatment targeting toenail fungus using precise light wavelengths to attack fungus without harming cells; stimulates new clear nail growth with an average of 6.1mm of new clear nail growth at 6 months.

• Peripheral Neuropathy Treatment Comprehensive neuropathy treatment including diagnosis of nerve entrapments, surgical decompression (performed in 70% of cases), specialized physical therapy (nerve gliding/flossing), topical creams, and vitamin supplementation.
• Endoscopic Tarsal Tunnel Decompression Minimally invasive surgical procedure to release or decompress constricted nerves in the tarsal tunnel of the ankle; the clinic is one of very few in the country trained to perform this procedure.
• Weight-Bearing CT Imaging Advanced CT imaging performed while the patient bears weight, allowing more accurate diagnosis of foot deformities since structure can change between standing and lying down.
