Praise for Ask The Foot Doctor

Dr. Tumen’s book “Ask The Foot Doctor” is an excellent resource which should be mandatory reading for anyone wishing to gain knowledge of the beauty and wonder of the foot and ankle. It is full of useful information for any nurse, parent, coach, athlete, aging adult, and anyone wishing to stay active or become more active. It’s also currently the best available reference for physicians that don’t necessarily specialize in the foot and ankle. This book will save people from the many sources of misinformation about the foot and ankle currently given in social media. It’s not only a great reference to keep on the bookshelf, but it’s an entertaining read as well.
