Kyrie Irving's Sprained Foot

I am not typically a basketball fan.  In fact, it is probably on the bottom of my list of major professional sports.  However, after my first week at my new office, I am taking some time just to relax.  After all, this is the 1st weekend in a while on which I did not have to go work at the office preparing it to see patients.

As many of you know, I spent the 1st 29 years of my life in Northeastern Ohio.  I was born in Akron and my undergraduate degree is from The University of Akron.  I went to podiatry school in Cleveland and did my residency in the greater Cleveland area.

So, even though I am not a huge basketball fan, I pay attention when a team in Cleveland is doing well.  I do not think it is fair to call me fair-weather as I have been to plenty of Browns, Indians, Cavs, and minor league hockey games in downtown Cleveland and even in Richfield at the old Coliseum when these teams were not doing well.  I also really appreciate LeBron James returning to our hometown to try to bring the people of Northeastern Ohio a championship.

Therefore, I admit I have been following the Cavs.  Unfortunately, with Kevin Love's season being over, I am concerned with Kyrie Irving.  Reports say he has a foot sprain and he is playing with a limp.  As a podiatrist, I wonder if there is more than a sprain.  I start to think about a stress fracture.  After all, a painful foot and limping is not normal.  Often, when someone keeps walking on a sore foot or ankle, it can make the condition worse and harder to treat.

I just hope that Kyrie's injury does not worsen as he and Lebron compliment each other well and would not want any long term problems.

As I type this at the end of the 3rd quarter of game 4 vs. the Bulls, things certainly do not look good for the Cavs.  However, in sports anything can happen.

A Very Exciting Annoucement

Many of you may be aware that in December of 2014 I began transitioning from being an employed podiatrist at Absolute Healthcare to becoming a solo practitioner.  Late last year, Donald J. Adamov, DPM, PA was formed.  I decided that after close to 10 years in private practice, it was time to "give it a try" on my own.  I figured that I would be able to care for patients the best way I know how and could make my own decisions when it comes to the services I offer my patients.

This is why, I am so excited to announce, that effective Monday, May 4th, I will begin practicing at my new location:

1250 Mariner Blvd.
Spring Hill, Florida 34609
352-606-3950

The new office is just over 2 miles south of the old location at 3376 Mariner Blvd.  It is just south of the YMCA on the same side of the road.  Our office is in the plaza directly behind Susie's Grill.  We have purchased brand new comfortable treatment chairs as well as a state-of-the-art digital x-ray machine.  This machine will allow us to diagnose fractures and other bone problems during your visit.  We are also looking into offering more items to help treat our patients such as arch supports and other medical equipment.

The new office is in addition to adding an additional morning to see patients at the Spring Hill wound care center.  Now in addition to Thursday afternoon, I will be seeing patients Wednesday morning as well.  If you have a wound you can always see us at the Mariner office, and if appropriate, I can then follow-up with you at the wound center.

I look forward to seeing you at the new location!
