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.

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.
