At New Orleans Podiatry, we are not a hospital system, a corporate clinic, or a high-volume medical office. We are an independent, boutique foot and ankle practice — the longest-running in New Orleans — where every visit is with Dr. Edward Lang personally, and every patient receives the kind of direct, unhurried attention that most clinics simply cannot offer.
Whether you need bunion surgery, regenerative medicine for heel pain, plantar fasciitis treatment, or advanced fungal nail care, you will be seen, heard, and treated by one of the most experienced foot and ankle surgeons in the Gulf South region.

What Every Patient Gets — Complimentary
At a boutique practice, the experience is part of the care. The following are included for every patient at no extra cost:
Text us 7 days a week from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Real answers. Real people. No AI, no call centers.
Foot pain does not wait, and neither should you. Urgent cases are seen the same day.
Our office is designed for your comfort. VR glasses, guided meditation, noise-canceling headphones, and a phone charger — because your visit should feel like yours. Sedation patients will need a ride home.
Our clinic is a calm, clean, welcoming environment — nothing like a typical doctor's office.
Never a nurse practitioner or P.A. You came to see the physician, you see the physician.
Meet Dr. Edward Lang
Dr. Edward Lang is one of the most experienced foot and ankle surgeons in the Gulf South — 30+ years in practice, 250,000+ patient encounters, and 21,000+ procedures performed right here in New Orleans. He is board-certified, Lapiplasty® certified, and minimally invasive surgery certified. He completed an 8-year preceptorship after formal training and has spent his entire career serving the city he calls home. Every visit is with Dr. Lang personally — never a nurse practitioner or P.A.

Heel Better Heel Pain Packages
Chronic heel pain is not a life sentence — but it does require a real plan.
Heel Better™ is a structured, results-driven program offered in three tiers, each designed around a staged 4-month treatment course of conservative regenerative care. Every package includes interval diagnostic ultrasound imaging to track tissue healing and guide treatment decisions, along with a personalized combination of PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma) therapy and shockwave therapy — two of the most clinically proven tools available for plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendinopathy, and chronic heel pain.
Whether you are just beginning treatment or have already tried everything else, there is a Heel Better™ package built for where you are right now.
Ingrown Toenail Surgery Package
This all-inclusive package includes your initial evaluation, diagnostic imaging to rule out bone or soft tissue infection, the matrixectomy procedure, a post-operative shoe, and a complete take-home aftercare supply kit. You will also have unlimited direct texting with Dr. Lang throughout your recovery, along with two follow-up visits to ensure you heal completely and comfortably.
Plantar Wart Surgery Packages
This all-inclusive package includes your initial evaluation, the surgical excision procedure, a post-operative shoe, and a complete take-home aftercare supply kit. You will also have unlimited direct texting with Dr. Lang throughout your recovery, along with two follow-up visits to confirm complete resolution and ensure proper healing.
Leneva® Fat Pad Restoration Membership
If every step feels like walking on rocks, the problem may not be your shoes — it may be your fat pads.
Leneva® is a non-surgical, in-office biologic matrix injection that restores lost cushioning under the ball of the foot. It is ideal for patients with fat pad atrophy or chronic forefoot pain, and most patients experience relief within weeks, with continued improvement over several months.
Patients who receive 3cc or more are automatically enrolled in the Leneva® Restoration Membership, which includes 20% off all touch-up applications in the same area for up to 18 months — ensuring your results are protected and maintained over time. Financing is available
The Barefoot is a clean, medical-grade spa located within New Orleans Podiatry — open to the community, no appointment with Dr. Lang required.
Spa services include dry pedicures and manicures with therapeutic massage, customized facials, waxing and hair removal, and reflexology — all performed in a serene, clinical-grade environment free of harsh chemicals, artificial nails, and traditional salon products. Memberships are available for most services.
Medical spa services within The Barefoot — including fungal treatment protocols, laser therapy, and clinical nail restoration — are reserved for patients of New Orleans Podiatry and prescribed exclusively by Dr. Edward Lang.

Boutique podiatry refers to a small, independent, high-touch practice where patients receive personalized, unhurried care directly from the physician — not a large hospital system or corporate clinic. At New Orleans Podiatry, boutique care means direct doctor access, a beautiful office environment, same-day availability, and a team that texts you back
