A Better, Faster Way of Recovery. Non-Surgical Foot and Ankle Orthopedic Care.

Regenerative medicine is the idea and study of how the body can heal itself without invasive procedures such as surgery. Since regeneration of your body happens at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels, we believe we can help your body target injuries to your body, specifically your foot and ankle, with our treatments.

Highly Recommend

"I highly recommend Dr. Hecker and his staff. His thorough treatment of my foot issues allowed me to prepare for and complete a successful Inca Trail hike. His shoe recommendations helped me find a comfortable pair of hiking shoes (as well as several of my friends with whom I shared the info). It is so nice to feel like I now know how to find shoes with good support and that I don't have to live with foot pain. His very professional staff also make you feel very welcome and supported. Thank you Dr. Hecker!"

Great Staff. Great Office. Great Doctor.

"I am a local Chiropractor and have referred many patients to Dr. Hecker, 100% positive feedback from my patients. I needed treatment myself and received the same level of care I expected. Great staff, great office, great doctor. I trust them to provide the highest level of care to me, my family and my patients. Thanks Dr. Hecker and the entire staff. Keep it up! It is refreshing to see an entire office keeping the patients #1."

Made Me Better!

"Where do I even start!? Dr. Hecker and his team are absolutely amazing! I have been dealing with foot and ankle problems for about 8 years. Have seen multiple doctors in multiple states and no one could do anything for me or they just wanted to do surgery. I went to Dr. Hecker in April 2019. Right away he saw something no one else did and guaranteed me he could fix my ankle in a matter of months. I laughed and said if you do that, I'm treating you to dinner. Well, looks like dinner is on me lol....Fast forward to August 2019 and I am officially brace free, healed bones and on my way to a better life! Him and his team did it! They took away my pain and made me better! I broke down in tears because I was in disbelief. They actually did it! So for anyone out there who has a similar situation or any kind of foot pain, go see Dr. Hecker. You will not be disappointed. He is such a caring man and wants what is best for you. If I could rate him more than 5 stars I would."

Cannot Recommend Enough!

"It is clear that Dr. Hecker keeps up with the current research on sports medicine. His treatment plan made me feel confident in my own recovery. I cannot recommend Dr. Hecker enough!! Next time I have an injury, I know which doctor I will turn to for help."

Got Me Back Up And Running

"I injured my achilles running and Dr. Hecker and his staff got me back up and running again a lot faster than I thought was possible. I will admit that the treatment was occasionally a bit uncomfortable (that PiezoWave2 machine is... intense) but I was largely pain-free within a week of starting treatment and the injury healed in weeks instead of months. I went into for my first appointment in early August and last appointment was today in mid-Sept. and I healed faster than anyone else that I run with believed was possible. I was impressed with everything from start to finish and would highly recommend Dr. Hecker for people with similar injuries."

So Thankful!

"I highly recommend Dr. Hecker and his office! I had shin pain for two years that wasn't responding to PT, constant icing, rest or other therapies. Dr. Hecker recommended a genetic test, which revealed a mutation in a gene. After a year on a supplement, my almost constant shin pain is nearly completely gone. I am back to running normally and I'm so relieved! We also tested one of my sons, who has the same mutation. He is recovering much better from his runs, and has even seen significant cognitive benefits, which Dr. Hecker said might happen. Amazing knowledge of such a unique field of study. Also, he is kind, listens well, and gives plenty of opportunity for questions. I'm so thankful to him!!"

Highly Recommend This Practice!

"Dr. Hecker and his entire staff are the best. Dr. Hecker spends time really listening to you and working with your situation. He works hard to use a non surgical solution, and is great about checking on progress. I had a long standing foot injury that I ignored because I thought it would require surgery. Dr. Hecker put me in a custom fit brace, and did other therapies that totally solved my problem. His entire staff is friendly, personable and professional. I looked forward to my visits. Highly recommend this practice!"

I Am So Thankful!

"Dealt with plantar fasciitis for over 2 1/2 years and severe pain for 6 months. I'm very active playing tennis, pickleball and golf and did not want to stop to allow for healing. Dr Hecker discovered I had a great deal of scar tissue and with 8 weeks of being in a boot, (I was told I could still play, the more I played the better my recovery) and 8 weeks of Physical Therapy, I am in NO pain. I am so thankful!!!"

Really Focused On The Issues

"I was treated by Doc Hecker for the last few months for some hip issues that will help me with movement in the years ahead. It was time so well spent as they really focused on the issues and correcting them so that they don't become more of an issue as I get older. The staff is wonderful and very communicative."

"Dr. Hecker is committed to his patient care. He is responsive, compassionate, and personable. He has always been open to my concerns and worked around them. His regenerative options have been wonderful for my recovery. After several years of significant pain, I am pain-free and back to running. Highly recommend Dr. Hecker to all!!!!"
