At Momentum Foot & Ankle, we treat a wide range of foot and ankle conditions affecting patients of all ages — from active children and athletes to working professionals, retirees, and individuals managing complex chronic health conditions. Whether you’re dealing with sudden pain, a recurring injury, or a long-standing concern, our goal is to help you understand what’s happening and guide you toward the most appropriate care.
Dr. Chris Zimmer is a fellowship-trained foot and ankle surgeon with expertise in both conservative and surgical treatment. Every patient receives a personalized evaluation, an honest diagnosis, and a clear explanation of all available options — because we believe informed patients make confident decisions.
Foot Conditions
Pain or dysfunction in the foot can stem from dozens of different causes, and accurate diagnosis is the first step toward lasting relief. At Momentum Foot & Ankle, we evaluate and treat a comprehensive range of foot conditions — from common concerns like plantar fasciitis, bunions, and hammertoes to more complex issues involving tendons, joints, nerves, and bone health. Our approach prioritizes conservative care whenever possible, with surgical expertise available when it’s truly needed. Learn more about our foot conditions and the treatments we offer.
Ankle Conditions
The ankle bears the full weight of the body with every step, making it especially vulnerable to injury, instability, and degenerative change. We treat acute and chronic ankle problems, including sprained ankles, chronic ankle instability, Achilles tendon disorders, ankle arthritis, and fractures — including complex trauma cases. Dr. Zimmer’s fellowship training in foot and ankle reconstruction gives patients access to advanced surgical options alongside thorough conservative care. Explore our ankle conditions page for a full overview of what we treat.
Diabetic Foot Conditions
Diabetes can have serious and far-reaching effects on the feet, including peripheral neuropathy, poor circulation, slow-healing wounds, and increased infection risk. Without proper care, these issues can escalate quickly. Momentum Foot & Ankle provides comprehensive diabetic foot management — from routine preventive exams and wound care to limb salvage for advanced cases. We work closely with each patient’s healthcare team to provide coordinated, proactive care that helps protect long-term function and mobility. Visit our diabetic foot conditions page to learn more about how we help patients manage foot health with diabetes.
Pediatric Foot & Ankle Conditions
Children’s feet are still developing, and early intervention can make a meaningful difference in how certain conditions progress. Dr. Zimmer evaluated and managed over 300 pediatric patients during his residency training, giving him the clinical depth to address a wide spectrum of pediatric foot and ankle concerns — including flat feet, toe walking, sports injuries, growth plate injuries, and congenital deformities. We provide a calm, child-friendly environment where both patients and parents feel heard and confident in their care plan. Learn more about our approach to pediatric conditions in Boynton Beach.
