Biography
As a podiatrist, I diagnose and treat patients for various conditions affecting their feet and ankles. I specialize in using minimally invasive approaches to treat traumatic injuries, as well as during elective surgical procedures.
I am certified with the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery (ABFAS) and the American Board of Podiatric Medicine (ABPM), which provide up-to-date treatment recommendations to optimize patient outcomes. I am also committed to treating my patients as if they were family. I believe that fostering a genuine, trusting relationship with patients facilitates effective communication and enhances care.
I appreciate the emphasis on research here at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, and I am committed to helping advance the treatment options in my specialty. I am also passionate about helping to educate the next generation of podiatrists. I am an assistant clinical professor of Orthopaedics and I am active with the Podiatric Residency Program at The Ohio State University College of Medicine.

Good Good
Excellent care

Dr McFerren consistently treats my recurring foot wound with utmost care and concern . Although I know the office is very busy and his schedule is full - he makes the extra effort to always get me an appointment to assess my foot. He never complains or says he is too busy, but rather , he always encourages me to call if changes or concerns arise. He adjusts the care plan to fit my needs.
