Meet Dr. Manali Chingre, DPM
Dr. Chingre earned her Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from the Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine in North Chicago, Illinois. She then completed her surgical residency at Corewell Health Trenton Hospital in Michigan, where she received comprehensive training in foot and ankle surgery, trauma, and complex lower extremity conditions.
She is board-qualified in Forefoot Surgery and Reconstructive Rearfoot/Ankle Surgery through the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery (ABFAS). Her training provides a strong foundation in both conservative and surgical management of foot and ankle disorders.
Comprehensive Foot & Ankle Care
Dr. Chingre evaluates and treats a variety of conditions, including:
Heel Pain & Plantar Fasciitis: Evaluation and treatment of common causes of heel and arch pain.
Bunions & Hammertoes: Conservative management and surgical correction when necessary.
Sports Injuries & Ankle Sprains: Treatment of ligament injuries, fractures, and other sports-related conditions.
Flatfeet & Tendon Disorders: Management of painful flatfoot deformities and tendon dysfunction.
Diabetic Foot Care & Wound Management: Preventative care and treatment of diabetic foot complications.
Foot & Ankle Surgery: Surgical treatment of complex deformities, injuries, and chronic conditions when nonsurgical care is unsuccessful.
A Personalized Approach to Treatment
Dr. Chingre believes that successful treatment begins with listening to her patients and understanding their individual needs, lifestyles, and goals.
She prioritizes conservative, nonsurgical treatment whenever appropriate, helping patients explore their options before considering surgery.
When surgical intervention is necessary, she uses evidence-based techniques with an emphasis on patient safety, functional recovery, and long-term outcomes.
