Warts
Arthritis
Plantar Fasciitis
Does your heel hurt in the morning or after long periods of standing? You may have developed plantar fasciitis. This is a common cause of heel pain caused by tears and inflammation in the fibrous band tissue (fascia). Athletes are at the highest risk of developing plantar fasciitis, but it can happen to anyone. Thankfully, it is not a permanent condition and can usually be treated by Bux-Mont Foot & Ankle Care Centers through noninvasive methods.
Diabetic Foot Care

Diabetes Care

Ultrasound
During your treatment, you will lie comfortably on your back in a chair. Your ankle will be placed on the machine, cradled in a soft, fluid-filled membrane. Sometimes, we will need to take an ultrasound to localize the affected area. We may also use a local anesthetic to calm you. EWST is customizable. We will set the machine to pulsate and penetrate at a level that best works for you. You will hear repetitive clicking sounds as the machine sends the acoustic waves to your foot.
MRI
Bux-Mont Foot & Ankle Care Centers treats a number of conditions, using extracorporeal pulse activated technology, the Cryostar System, shockwave therapy, minimal incision surgery, pain fighters, laser treatments, proletherapy, MRI, and other treatment options designed to get you back on your feet quickly and with less pain.

General Surgery
Our highly skilled non-surgical foot care specialist and knowledgeable team can keep your feet healthy and improve your overall quality of life. Our main goal is to alleviate pain and discomfort, restore full mobility, and develop a personal foot management plan for long-term success. Regardless of your case, we are fully equipped to provide treatment and non-surgical services.
Orthopedics
We are proud to say that doctors at our offices are members of the American College of Foot and Ankle Orthopedics and Medicine, the American Professional Wound Care Association, the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons, the Pennsylvania Podiatric Medical Association, the American Podiatric Medical Association, and the American Society of Podiatric Dermatology.
Wound Care
A wound caused by trauma or injury, diabetes, or a pre-existing condition can be harmful and may cause further complications within your health leading to severe foot conditions. Our experts use state-of-the-art techniques and technologies to provide patients with advanced wound care treatment. This includes the treatment of hard-to-heal diabetic foot ulcers, severe open wounds, and other infections. Our advanced therapies restore mobility and improve the overall quality of life.
Ankle Surgery
Our Board Certified podiatrists are certified by The American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery in both foot surgery and reconstructive rearfoot and ankle surgery, by the American Board of Podiatric Medicine, and by the American Board of Podiatric Surgery - Division of Ambulatory Foot Surgery.
Bunion Surgery
The issue with an osteotomy, or conventional bunion surgery, is it only handles one part of the metatarsal; meaning the procedure surgically cuts the misaligned bone and repositions it but solely through one single plane of motion (essentially a two-dimensional approach).
Bunions
At Bux-Mont Foot & Ankle Care Center, our highly experienced team can perform a bunionectomy, or a surgical bunion treatment for patients in Southeastern Pennsylvania and the surrounding areas. Depending on your specific case, the type of surgery will depend on the severity of the deformity and structural changes caused by the bunion. Bunions can be painful due to chronic irritation from shoe gear and may also cause pain from a misalignment of the big toe joint.
Ingrown Toenails
If it appears that the nail is infected (if the symptoms do not go away) or if you have diabetes, it is recommended you see a doctor. At Bux-Mont Foot & Ankle Care Centers, we can permanently remove recurring ingrown toenails through non-invasive surgery.
Reconstructive Surgery
Having graduated from Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine, Dr. Rajczy specializes in all aspects of podiatric medicine and surgical care from broken toenails to broken bones. He trained at Hahnemann University Hospital with a focus on elective and reconstructive surgery as well as the trauma of the foot and ankle and also has a keen background in wound care.

Dermatology
Corns
A corn is a type of callus that often forms on the top or side of the toes. They are not usually painful when left alone, but can be if pressed. Corns can be caused by friction on the skin, usually from wearing uncomfortable shoes.
Frostbite
Ulcer
While many Americans suffer from diabetes, it is important to be aware of warning signs for health-harming foot wounds. Foot ulcers develop in about 15 percent of the 25 million Americans who have diabetes. If you have a diabetic ulcer, a venous ulcer, or a pressure ulcer that’s not improving, you may be a candidate for advanced therapies.
Calluses
In most cases, calluses are not a major cause for concern. However, if you have a painful callus or one that lasts for a long period, or if you have diabetes, you should have it examined by a podiatrist.
Fungus
If you have yellow, brittle toenails, you may have toenail fungus. This condition is contagious and should be treated promptly to stop it from spreading to family members or other parts of your body.
Psoriasis
The Keryflex Nail Restoration System is an innovative treatment for deformed nails. Conditions like ingrown nails, psoriasis, and onychogryphosis, can leave the nail visually disfigured, which often leaves people feeling self-conscious. Keryflex is a minimally invasive and painless procedure offered by Bux-Mont Foot & Ankle Care Centers and can get your nails looking healthy again.

Physical Therapists

Physical Therapy
As with any injury, we tried to avoid invasive surgery and strive to make it a last resort for these types of aches and pains. Many patients can find relief through physical therapy, custom orthotics, and other non-invasive treatments.
Flatfoot Correction
Heel Pain
Ankle Sprain
Ankle sprains – Athletes put a lot of strain on their feet, and even a small injury can be all it takes for the ankle to sprain. An ankle sprain typically occurs when the foot lands in an awkward manner and is twisted at an odd angle. This tears the ligaments in the ankle, forcing an athlete to take time off from their training to heal. A podiatrist can assess the extent of sprain damage and help expedite recovery time.
Orthotics and Prosthetic Therapy

General Podiatry
Our team at Bux-Mont Foot & Ankle Care Centers is dedicated to providing exceptional podiatry care for patients of all ages in Newtown and Warminster, CT, and surrounding areas. Our mission is defined by the success and effective results of our patients, and we truly go above and beyond expectations to deliver the highest standard of care.
Achilles Tendonitis
Achilles tendonitis – The Achilles tendon connects the calf muscles to the heel. It is used in walking, running, jumping, and most other foot movements and, therefore, has an increased chance of getting damaged when overused. Athletes who run track and cross country should be very careful not to exacerbate the Achilles tendon.
Ankle Sprain
Bux-Mont Foot & Ankle Care Centers is dedicated to providing you with the best treatment for your foot or ankle injury. Our podiatry services include an assortment of remedies ranging from routine physical therapy for chronic ailments and fractures to corrective surgery for more serious cases. Please explore the treatments available to you and contact us for more information.
Bunions Problems
While bunions at their initial stage generally don’t require treatment at first, abnormal bony protrusions can progress and worsen into more discomforting and painful conditions. When these symptoms exacerbate, they begin to affect your day-to-day activities.

Flat Feet
Fungus Toenails
Toenails can provide fungus with a prime environment for growth, making toenail fungus one of the most common foot problems. Some cases of nail fungus are mild and may only manifest as a discoloration under the nail.
Hammertoes
Typically, the most common cause of hammertoe is due to imbalance in your muscles or tendons which leads to the bending of the tail and changes in your foot structure that can worsen over time. Hammertoes may also be further aggravated if you wear improper shoes and cramp your feet into an unnatural position.
Heel Spurs
If you are someone who naturally has problems with their foot arch, has a high arch or flat feet, you may be more prone to developing heel spurs and other heel pain conditions. These painful conditions can lead to inflammation of the tissue and when extended to the heel can result in inflammation and swelling.
Heel Pain
Foot Pain
Ingrown Toenails
An ingrown toenail is a condition where the corners of the nail grow at an odd angle and cut into the skin. This is a very common condition that can be caused by cutting the nail too short or an infection. It usually occurs on the big toe, but it can appear on others as well.
Foot Injuries
Metatarsalgia
Are you experiencing pain or a stabbing sensation in the joints or balls of your feet when you walk or stand for prolonged periods? If yes, you may have metatarsalgia or swelling in the areas of the balls of your feet. Pre-existing conditions may cause you to put more pressure on the balls of your foot which only complicates the situation. After our experts do a complete assessment of your case with x-rays, we will discuss the possible treatment options including non-surgical treatments such as injections, orthotics, and shoe modifications, and laser treatments.
Foot Warts
Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis – The plantar fascia is a band of tissue in the arch of the foot that absorbs shock. When this tissue is overworked, it can tear and inflame, resulting in pain. This is one of the most common causes of heel pain and frequently affects female athletes.
Podiatric Deformities
When it comes to treating hammertoes, surgical intervention is most commonly needed if the hammertoe is starting to become severely painful or an open sore develops. Generally, our team can simultaneously treat other foot deformities along with treatment for hammertoes. A hammertoe is when one or both joints in the toes begin to abnormally bend and put a strain on your feet when wearing shoes. This can lead to multiple problems and further complicate any pre-existing conditions you may have with your feet already.
Podiatric Surgery
Bux-Mont Foot and Ankle Care Centers is staffed with highly qualified, friendly people who truly care about patient comfort. We offer weekend and emergency services. We use the latest equipment, technology, and techniques to offer healthcare treatments that exceed expectations. Our doctors are highly trained in podiatric medicine and are Board Certified in podiatric surgery. This is truly a team that has your best interests at heart.
