Foot & Ankle Specialist, Dr. Lu, DPM<\/h2>\n

I often get asked how I got into podiatry. I was in my senior year of undergraduate studies at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill when I spent my spring break at an Indian reservation in Zuni, New Mexico for my senior research project. It was there that I met a podiatrist whom I admired for her role in the community \u2013 with diabetes being one of the most prevalent ailments among the native American population, this doctor was actively helping to bring healing and relief for the many foot problems that diabetics can encounter. I shadowed several podiatrists in their work, and I knew that this is the career I wanted to pursue. I went on to complete my four years of Podiatric medical school and three years of residency to become a podiatrist fully qualified to perform foot and ankle surgery and other treatments.<\/p>\n

I live in Charlotte with my wiener dog, Stewie, who has become Charlotte Foot Care<\/a> Associates\u2019 mascot. We enjoy hiking the outdoors and camping, but curling up on the couch and reading a good book is another pastime when we are not out and about. Stewie also loves taking long walks around the neighborhood, often with two or three other dogs who are his playmates.<\/p>\n

I am glad to be in my hometown of Charlotte where I can help improve the quality of my patients\u2019 lives by working to ensure that their feet stay healthy and pain free. Podiatry is a fun yet challenging and exciting field, and through continuing medical education, I stay up to date on the latest and most advanced treatment options available to my patients.<\/p>\n
