We are thrilled to share some exciting news with you – the addition of a new partner to our podiatry family! Join us in welcoming Dr. Tikiwala to the team. Along with Dr. Nasser, she will provide great care to our patients in Gurnee. She is a knowledgeable and caring doctor with a wide range of experience with both surgical and conservative treatments.
Dr. Tikiwala, a Midwesterner at heart, brings a wealth of knowledge and passion for podiatry to our practice. Born in Gujarat, India, and raised in the northwest suburbs of Detroit, Michigan, she graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology from Michigan State University. Dr. Tikiwala then earned her Doctorate of Podiatric Medicine from Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine and completed her three-year foot and ankle surgery residency at Mercy Health St. Vincent Medical Center in Toledo, Ohio.
Her extensive clinical and surgical training at a level 1 trauma center has equipped her to address a diverse range of lower extremity pathologies, including trauma, sport-related injuries, pediatric foot conditions, wound care, and diabetic limb salvage. Dr. Tikiwala is dedicated to building trusting doctor-patient relationships, offering time, compassion, and personalized care. She treats each patient as family, ensuring they feel heard and prioritized.
We are excited to announce that University Foot Associates is expanding! To better fit your needs and schedules, we are adding hours and days to our practice. Rest assured, I will continue to practice and see patients. Our commitment to delivering exceptional care remains unwavering.
We look forward to this new chapter with Dr. Tikiwala and believe her expertise will enhance the comprehensive care we provide. Thank you for being part of the University Foot Associates family. If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Warm regards,
Dr. Audey Nasser
