Dr. Cheesebro has been a Minneapolis podiatrist in private practice for over 20 years. His qualifications include surgical residency training and certification in foot surgery from the American Board of Podiatric Surgery. He is a member of various professional guilds, including the American Podiatric Medical Association, the American College of Foot Surgeons and the Minnesota Podiatric Medical Association. Dr. Cheesebro is also on staff at North Memorial Hospital, Fairview University Hospital and West Health Surgery Center.

The Doctor and his staff are committed to providing diagnosis and treatment for all foot problems in an efficient and caring manner. We use the latest technology in diagnosis and treatment, including shockwave treatment for chronic heel pain. Shockwave treatment is an extracorporal (outside the body) treatment for plantar fasciitis. Plantar fasciitis is an overuse injury that causes constant soreness in the heel. It is often called "heel spurs," however this is not exactly accurate, since irregular bone growth is not the cause. Instead, it is caused by inflammation of the plantar fascia, a thick layer of tissue supporting the arch. Shockwave helps to relieve discomfort caused by plantar fasciitis by overstimulating nerve endings, reducing sensitivity and pain. Compared to surgery, shockwave treatment has a relatively low risk of side effects.

We also offer Pulse Dye laser treatment for removal of plantar warts. Pulse Dye treatment is the best noninvasive wart treatment. When performed with a properly maintained laser, the treatment is absolutely effective, and only causes minor discomfort.

Our practices are the first private clinics in the Minneapolis area to offer digital radiography. Digital radiography streamlines the imaging process, allowing us to optimize patient care. This reduces exam time, increases patient care, and allows flexibility in how images are viewed. It also speeds processing. With this technology, clinics are able to speed examinations without compromising the accuracy of diagnoses.
