All rights reserved.
Founded in 2016 by Frankfort native Dr. Kelly May, Illinois Foot & Ankle Center is a local
business that is growing thanks to the support of our community. We strive to ensure the
patient has the most comfortable experience possible while ensuring they receive the
treatment that is best for them.
Our private, spacious exam rooms provide a comfortable setting for patients and their
family members or caregivers. Our digital x-ray is centrally located in our office and, when
needed, images will be shown to you immediately in the privacy of your exam room.
To provide the best treatment options possible, we are constantly evaluating the latest
technology and investing in state-of-the art equipment. We are proud to offer options such
as laser treatment and shockwave therapy as non-surgical options to alleviate foot, heel,
and ankle pain.
