Do You Have Any of These Symptoms?
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re in the right place. Call us or request an appointment online, and we’ll take a look.
Expert surgical treatment for bunions, hammertoes, bone spurs, ankle reconstruction, and other foot and ankle conditions. Our practice offers advanced surgical techniques, including minimally invasive procedures when appropriate, to help relieve pain, restore function, and get you back to the activities you enjoy. Proudly serving Rolesville, Wake Forest, Youngsville, and surrounding communities. Surgery is rarely the first option—and at Ironworks, it is usually the last. We prioritize conservative treatments such as injections, physical therapy, shoe modifications, and time to allow the body an opportunity to heal naturally. When structural damage or chronic pain persists despite these efforts, foot and ankle surgery can provide lasting relief and restore quality of life. Many foot and ankle procedures can be performed conveniently in the office, allowing patients to receive treatment in a comfortable and familiar setting. When surgery is necessary, Dr. Leshikar performs procedures in an ambulatory surgery center, helping patients avoid the complexity of a hospital setting. Whenever possible, minimally invasive techniques are used to achieve excellent outcomes with smaller incisions, less discomfort, reduced scarring, and a quicker return to the activities and lifestyle you enjoy. A surgical consultation at Ironworks is a conversation, not a commitment. You’ll meet with Dr. Leshikar, review imaging, and leave with a clear understanding of your options. You’ll leave informed, not rushed into a decision. Ironworks is Rolesville’s dedicated podiatry and advanced wound care practice, serving Wake Forest, Youngsville, and the surrounding communities with the specialized, personal care you shouldn’t have to travel to Raleigh or Durham to find. New patients are welcome, and most major insurance is accepted. Call us, request an appointment online, or stop by our Rolesville office. We’ll take care of the rest.
