At Infinity Foot & Ankle, podiatrist Parul Patel calls upon more than a decade of experience as she performs treatments ranging from surgical procedures and diabetic foot care to preventative and aesthetic podiatry. The native north Texan and graduate of the Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine is affiliated with five area hospitals and surgical centers, and she travels to Honduras to perform pediatric podiatry. She treats conditions such as ingrown toenails, ruptured Achilles tendons, and the inability to walk a mile in another man's shoes.

Dr. Mark Bickston and his small, close-knit team—which includes office manager Sherry and primary assistant Evenetta—have been working together for more than 20 years. The office is also a registered Venus Freeze provider: Dr. Bickston's wife, Susan, performs the anti-aging sessions in a private, spa-like treatment room. The reception area speaks of the crew's commitment to patients' comfort: a reclining Tempur-Pedic massage chair invites guests to sit back and watch the fish in the brightly colored aquarium perform scenes from The Little Mermaid.
