Candice A. Kepich, DPM, DABFAS, is a dedicated podiatrist at Sarasota Foot Care Center. She currently sees patients at the practice’s two convenient locations in Sarasota, Florida.
Dr. Kepich is originally from Scranton, Pennsylvania. After graduating summa cum laude from Kings College in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, with a Bachelor of Science in biology, she moved to Philadelphia. She became interested in podiatry after her own experience as a patient of a podiatrist in her hometown. The combination of surgery, office procedures, sports medicine, and diabetic foot care opened her eyes to a career in podiatric medicine and surgery.
She earned her Doctorate in Podiatric Medicine from Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine in 2008. While there, she served as Vice President of the Stirling Hartford Anatomical Honor Society. Dr. Kepich then completed a three-year podiatric medicine and surgical residency at Mercy Suburban Hospital, where she served as Chief Resident during her final year. Following residency, she moved to Sarasota with her husband, also a physician.
Dr. Kepich is board certified in foot surgery by the American Board of Foot and Ankle Surgery. She is a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and a member of the American Podiatric Medical Association and Florida Podiatric Medical Association.
Her professional interests include diabetes education, sports medicine, wound care, surgical and nonsurgical treatments of foot and ankle pathology, and pediatrics.
Her personal interests include spending time with her husband, son, and daughter, boating, paddleboarding, and enjoying the outdoors in Florida and at their family cabin in Wyoming.
The goal of the team at Gentle Foot Care Clinic is to provide comprehensive podiatry care for men, women, and children living in and around Zephyrhills and Brandon, Florida, and throughout Pasco and Hillsborough Counties.
Expert podiatrist, Jairo Cruz, DPM, leads the team and specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of a variety of common foot and ankle-related health problems including bunions, diabetic foot care, flatfeet, gout, ingrown toenails, heel pain, and hammertoes. Whenever possible, Dr. Cruz recommends conservative measures of care to treat these issues, but when necessary, he also performs minimally invasive surgery.
Whenever possible, Dr. Cruz and the team recommend conservative, alternative methods of treatment. Oftentimes, healthy lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise, as well as at-home treatments like stretches, rest, and alternating between ice and heat are enough to relieve pain and discomfort.
Dr. Cruz always sets aside plenty of time to meet with new patients and develop unique treatment plans based on their health history, concerns, and background. His attention to detail and commitment to patient satisfaction ensures all of his clients receive the best quality care.
