CASCADE FOOT & ANKLE, PLLC

What CASCADE FOOT & ANKLE, PLLC does

Cascade Foot & Ankle, PLLC is a physician-owned podiatric medical practice operating two clinical locations in Central Washington — a headquarters office at 2400 Racquet Lane in Yakima and a satellite office at 611 South Chestnut Street in Ellensburg. Organized as a Professional Limited Liability Company, the practice is staffed by four podiatrists: Dr. Stuart Cardon (DACFAS, board-certified in forefoot and reconstructive rearfoot/ankle surgery), Dr. Joshua Johnson (FACFAS), Dr. Dean Walters, and Dr. Shawn Summers, supported by a total workforce of 14 employees. The practice serves a broad patient population across Central Washington, addressing foot and ankle conditions for general adults, diabetic patients requiring specialized wound and ulcer care, and athletes with sports-related injuries.

The practice delivers ten core clinical services spanning conservative care to advanced surgical interventions, including Achilles Tendonitis Treatment, Bunion Treatment, Foot & Ankle Pain Treatment, Foot & Ankle Surgery, Hammertoe Treatment, Heel Pain Treatment, Ingrown Toenail Treatment, Custom Orthotics, REMY Laser Treatment, and Sports Injury Treatment. Its technology stack centers on FDA-approved REMY Laser Therapy, which uses specific light wavelengths to penetrate tissue and activate cellular healing for conditions including plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, neuropathy, arthritis, and chronic wounds, alongside in-office 3D scanning technology for the design and fabrication of medical-grade custom orthotics tailored to footwear type and activity level.

The business model is fee-for-service professional medical care, billed primarily through third-party insurance plans with self-pay pricing for uninsured or non-covered services such as promotional custom orthotics. Orthotics represent a discrete retail-style revenue stream with tiered promotional pricing ($375 for a second pair, $280 for a third pair, self-pay only). Go-to-market is sales-led, driven by physician referrals, online scheduling through the practice website, content marketing via an active health blog, and a strong community reputation reflected in a 4.8/5 star rating across 1,126 Google reviews. Operational infrastructure is anchored by hospital affiliations with Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital and Kittitas Valley Community Hospital, a surgical facility partnership with Creekside Surgery Center, and administrative partnerships including USFAS for practice management support and MediCopy for medical records processing.
