From everyday heel pain to complex surgical correction — Dr. Reper handles the full range of podiatric conditions.
Persistent heel pain that makes every morning a struggle. We identify the source and build a recovery plan — from conservative therapy to advanced treatments.
Painful bony bumps at the base of the big toe. We offer both conservative management and surgical correction when needed, with realistic recovery timelines.
Sprains, fractures, and chronic instability. Proper diagnosis matters — we use imaging to determine exactly what's injured before recommending treatment.
Routine diabetic foot exams reduce the risk of serious complications. We provide thorough annual checks and ongoing monitoring for patients managing diabetes.
Prescription foot supports fitted to your exact anatomy — not off-the-shelf insoles. Proper alignment addresses pain at the foot, knee, hip, and lower back.
When conservative care isn't enough, Dr. Reper performs surgical correction. We explain every step, set realistic expectations, and support you through recovery.
Whether you're in Lenoir City, Monroe County, or the Smoky Mountain corridor, there's a Tennessee Foot & Ankle location within reach. One phone number, one care team, consistent treatment wherever you go.
If you've been limping through mornings or skipping walks because of heel pain, that's worth a real evaluation. Plantar fasciitis rarely improves without proper treatment.

Dr. Reper will examine your foot or ankle and, if needed, take X-rays on-site. Most diagnostic imaging happens the same day — no separate scheduling.
We explain exactly what we found and what's causing your pain. No jargon, no rush. You'll understand your condition before we discuss any treatment options.
You leave with a clear treatment plan — conservative first, surgical only when necessary. We'll review insurance coverage before any procedure above the co-pay.
Including Medicare, TennCare, and Tricare. Verify your coverage when you call — we'll confirm benefits before your visit.
"I'd been dealing with plantar fasciitis for over a year before I came here. Dr. Reper explained exactly what was happening and had me on a real treatment plan by the end of my first visit. Finally seeing improvement."
"The Sevierville office is easy to get to and the staff is genuinely kind. Dr. Reper took time with me, answered every question, and didn't push anything I didn't need. My ankle feels better than it has in years."
"As a diabetic I need regular foot checks and I'd been putting it off. Coming here was easy — they handled my Medicare paperwork, explained everything, and I left knowing my feet are in good hands."
In most cases, no. Many insurance plans allow direct access to a podiatrist. Call us at (865) 986-2700 and we'll verify your specific coverage before your visit.
Podiatrists specialize in everything from the ankle down — plantar fasciitis, bunions, heel spurs, ingrown toenails, ankle sprains and fractures, diabetic foot complications, flat feet, and foot and ankle surgery when needed.
Medicare Part B covers medically necessary podiatry services including treatment of foot injuries and conditions. Annual diabetic foot exams are specifically covered. We'll confirm your benefits when you call.
Surgery is always a last resort. Dr. Reper starts with conservative treatment — physical therapy, orthotics, injections, or medication — and only recommends surgery when other options haven't resolved the problem.
Prescription orthotics are cast to your specific anatomy and designed to correct your particular alignment issue. Over-the-counter insoles provide cushioning but don't address the underlying mechanical cause of most foot pain.
We have offices in Lenoir City (974 US-321), Madisonville (4228 Hwy 411), and Sevierville (1124 Fox Meadows Blvd). Call (865) 986-2700 and we'll help you find the most convenient appointment.
Appointments at all three East Tennessee locations — Lenoir City, Madisonville, and Sevierville. Call or use the form and we'll get back to you within one business day.
