Urgent Care For Feet, a provider of specialized urgent foot and ankle care services, has opened a new clinic in Midtown Sacramento. The Sacramento location is led by Dr. Katherine Kalthoff, DPM – a board-certified podiatrist with more than 20 years of experience and offers same-day treatment for a wide range of foot and ankle injuries, infections, and other conditions. Local residents suffering sudden foot or ankle pain are encouraged to skip the emergency room wait and instead receive prompt care at this dedicated foot and ankle clinic, where walk-ins are welcome and fast relief is provided by experienced foot specialists.
The new Midtown Sacramento clinic is fully equipped to address diverse podiatric needs, from sports injuries and broken bones to infections and diabetic foot complications. With on-site specialized equipment (including foot-specific X-ray imaging) and expert podiatric surgeons available, the clinic can manage complex cases such as difficult wounds and urgent surgical interventions that might otherwise require a hospital visit. By focusing exclusively on feet and ankles, Urgent Care For Feet Sacramento can treat approximately 95% of foot and ankle cases typically seen in an emergency room, but with minimal wait times and at a fraction of the cost of an ER visit.
“Our mission is to deliver timely and focused care for foot injuries and conditions that often go untreated or delayed,” said Dr. Katherine Kalthoff, a board-certified podiatrist. “We’ve created a walk-in model with specialized urgent care podiatrists so patients don’t have to wait days or weeks for relief.”
The clinic fills a vital healthcare gap by offering specialized services not typically found in general urgent care centers. The team of board-certified podiatrists utilizes advanced diagnostic tools and provides personalized treatment plans, eliminating the high costs and delays associated with emergency rooms or traditional hospital systems.
The Sacramento clinic offers treatment for sprains, fractures, and foot injuries, as well as managing diabetic foot issues and infections. It also addresses nail problems, such as ingrown toenails and fungal conditions, wound care for puncture injuries, and pediatric foot conditions, as well as sports-related injuries.
With a focus on convenience, affordability, and patient-centered care, Urgent Care for Feet accepts most insurance plans and welcomes walk-ins during extended weekday and weekend hours.
The Sacramento location is part of a growing network of clinics aimed at making urgent foot care accessible in communities that need it most. The launch also includes community outreach and education to promote preventive foot health and early intervention, particularly for seniors, athletes, and individuals living with chronic conditions such as diabetes.
