WE ARE EXPERTS IN FOOT SURGERY, PODIATRIC DERMATOLOGY, AND PODIATRIC MEDICINE

M. Joel Morse, DPM, the founder of Foxhall Podiatry, has always exemplified a caring approach for his patients. The practice approaches all patients from a conservative point of view as many foot problems can and should be handled that way before surgery is considered. If surgery is needed, our doctors are highly qualified to perform both in-office and hospital-based surgery. Dr. Morse is Board Certified with the American Board of Podiatric Surgery and serves on staff at Washington Hospital Center (Medstar) and Sibley Hospital (Hopkins Med).

She si a member of the APMA as well as the DC Podiatric Medical Association, where she serves at the CAC representative. In addition, she is an Associate of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons. She is board qualified by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgeons. She is also Board Certified in Podiatric Medicine by the ABPM. Dr. Ruggieri is fluent in French and Turkish.
