About Dr. Aamir Mahmood, DPM

Podiatrist Aamir Mahmood, DPM, created Momentum Foot & Ankle Clinic to get to know people on a personal level and provide them with the space they need to receive the best podiatric care. At the offices in Michigan City and Chesterton, Indiana, and Lombard, Illinois, Dr. Mahmood is excited to be a part of the community, and wants his patients to feel at home. His goal will always be to make them feel comfortable because when patients feel they can be honest with him, that’s when the real treatment begins. 

Dr. Mahmood is a born and bred Chicago native who grew up knowing all too well the importance of podiatric health. He was born with pes planus (flat feet) and spent his childhood wearing orthotics, braces, and dealing with sporadic pain due to rigorous activity. These experiences allowed him to realize very early on that he wanted to pursue a career in medicine. 

After completing his Bachelor of Science in Biology from Loyola University of Chicago, Dr. Mahmood decided to take a year to complete a Masters in Public Health from Benedictine University to equip him with a better understanding of a different viewpoint of medicine. From here, he completed his Doctorate in Podiatric Medicine from Kent State College of Podiatric Medicine (formerly known as Ohio College of Podiatric Medicine). He then completed a three-year surgical residency at Jesse Brown VA in Chicago, specializing in foot and ankle surgery where he served as chief resident. During his residency, he presented peer-reviewed abstracts at multiple surgical and wound care conferences. His research won an award at the Symposium for Advanced Wound Care in 2018. 

Dr. Mahmood has board qualifications in the American Board of Podiatric Medicine and American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery in Forefoot/Reconstructive Rearfoot and Ankle. 

When Dr. Mahmood isn’t a force of change in podiatry, he enjoys spending time with his wife and four kids. He is a car aficionado and loves to teach his kids everything he knows about cars. He also enjoys surrounding himself with friends and family and hosting gatherings. He is known to be an avid basketball player and an encyclopedia of trivial facts. What drives him in life is his passion for meeting people and creating lasting relationships.

Latest Review
“With both knees bone-on-bone and also suffering from psoriasis, my condition was one the orthopedists at NW Medical had failed to provide me with relief. A nurse friend suggested I search a University-based joint replacement practice. I secured an appointment almost three months out with Dr Karas. I was impressed with his doctor-patient manner and his efficient and personable PA, xxxx. It was his candor which impressed me most of all. He admitted that his experience with psoriasis patients was limited, and that I might have a better outcome if I was referred to another Rush Knee Replacement Specialist with more experience with patients like me. I am looking forward to that appointment in two weeks. I wish I had seen Dr Karas two years ago instead of going in that Northwestern direction.”

Latest Review
“With both knees bone-on-bone and also suffering from psoriasis, my condition was one the orthopedists at NW Medical had failed to provide me with relief. A nurse friend suggested I search a University-based joint replacement practice. I secured an appointment almost three months out with Dr Karas. I was impressed with his doctor-patient manner and his efficient and personable PA, xxxx. It was his candor which impressed me most of all. He admitted that his experience with psoriasis patients was limited, and that I might have a better outcome if I was referred to another Rush Knee Replacement Specialist with more experience with patients like me. I am looking forward to that appointment in two weeks. I wish I had seen Dr Karas two years ago instead of going in that Northwestern direction.”
