Shama Pervaiz, DPM, MBS is a limb salvage fellow board-qualified in foot surgery and reconstructive rearfoot/ankle surgery at Albuquerque Associated Podiatrists in Albuquerque, New Mexico. She is passionate about restoring function and preserving mobility for her patients through evidence-based medicine and compassionate care. Her dedication to limb salvage stems from witnessing the devastating effects of diabetic foot complications throughout her training and within her own family, as well as the challenges faced by those with limited access to quality healthcare – experiences that inspired her to pursue specialized training and a career devoted to prevention and preservation.

She earned her Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from Barry University School of Podiatric Medicine in Miami, Florida, where she graduated with Pi Delta Honors and received the Clifford O’Connor DPM Memorial Compassionate Physician Award. She also holds a Master of Biomedical Sciences from Rutgers University and a Bachelor of Biological Sciences with a minor in psychology from the University of Illinois at Chicago.

Dr. Pervaiz completed her surgical residency at Jackson North Medical Center in Miami, Florida, where she was recognized for her leadership and clinical excellence as a Medi-Law 2025 Resident of the Year nominee.

Throughout her career, Dr. Pervaiz has presented at multiple conferences, participated in a range of educational courses, and published research on innovative reconstructive techniques, including the use of keystone flaps in lower extremity surgery. She remains active in several professional organizations, including the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and the American Podiatric Medical Association.

A New Mexico native, Dr. Pervaiz is an avid traveler who has studied and volunteered in multiple countries, including Italy, Haiti, and Mexico. She speaks English, Italian, and Spanish fluently, as well as conversational French – a reflection of her love for connecting with people and cultures around the world.
