Description

As our bodies age, our feet and ankles undergo natural changes, from fat pad atrophy and hallux rigidus to arthritis and progressive collapsing foot deformity. Join us for a hybrid Doc Talks session presented by USC Verdugo Hills Hospital in partnership with the YMCA of the Foothills, as Brian K. Hong, DPM, breaks down these common lower-extremity changes and shares practical strategies for prevention, management, and long-term joint health. In-person attendees can also enjoy a complimentary takeaway box lunch (reservations required 48 hours in advance).
