Preventive Foot Care
Routine foot and ankle exams, professional nail care, and footwear guidance that catch small problems long before they become painful ones.
Most of the painful foot problems we treat at Mountain View Foot & Ankle Clinic began as something small and quiet — a callus forming in the wrong spot, an arch slowly flattening, a nail growing into the skin. A routine foot exam takes a few minutes and catches those changes while they are still easy to correct. Preventive care matters most for people with diabetes, older adults, runners, and anyone who spends the workday on their feet.
What a Preventive Visit Includes
Comprehensive Foot Exam
Skin, nails, joints, circulation, and sensation, all checked and documented.
Gait & Pressure Assessment
We look at how you walk and where your feet carry the most load.
Professional Nail & Callus Care
Safe, thorough trimming and reduction — especially important if reaching your feet is difficult.
Footwear Review
An honest look at what you are wearing and what it is doing to your feet.
Why It Matters
Catch Problems Early
Small changes get handled in one visit instead of months of treatment.
Protect High-Risk Feet
Essential if you live with diabetes, neuropathy, or circulation concerns.
Stay Active Longer
Address the strain that quietly ends walking routines and workouts.
Fewer Surprises
Fewer urgent visits, and less time spent off your feet.
Who Should Come In
Adults with Diabetes
At least once a year, and more often if you are in a higher risk category.
Older Adults
Nail care, balance, and fall-risk assessment in a single visit.
Runners & Active Adults
Catch overuse patterns before they turn into a stress fracture.
Anyone on Their Feet All Day
Nurses, teachers, tradespeople, and retail and service workers.
Schedule a Preventive Visit
You do not need a painful problem to justify a foot exam — and the patients who come in before there is pain almost always need the least treatment. Call or text (801) 784-1111 to book a preventive visit with Dr. Steven Royall at our Lehi office, serving Cedar Valley, Eagle Mountain, and Saratoga Springs.
