Dr. Ronald Lieberman, DPM, FACFAS has maintained a podiatric surgery practice in Carlsbad since 1985, treating foot and ankle conditions from Jefferson Street near Carlsbad Village. Board certified by the American Board of Podiatric Surgery since 1993 and the American Board of Podiatric Orthopedics and Primary Podiatric Medicine since 1992, he performs reconstructive foot and ankle procedures that often require post-operative orthopedic co-management with groups such as Orthopaedic Specialists of North County. He earned his DPM with honors from the California College of Podiatric Medicine in San Francisco in 1984 and completed a podiatric surgical residency at Villa View Hospital, followed by surgical training with the Baja Project for Crippled Children. His leadership in the field includes serving as past president of the San Diego County Podiatric Medical Society and past chief of podiatry at Scripps Memorial Hospital-Encinitas. His scope extends beyond surgical correction to biomechanical gait analysis and conservative management of chronic foot conditions, a treatment continuum that overlaps with the musculoskeletal care at West Coast Chiropractic Center Carlsbad. Complex reconstructive cases span forefoot surgery including bunionectomy with metatarsal osteotomy, hindfoot arthrodesis for degenerative joint disease, and microsurgical repair of ruptured Achilles tendons using anchor-based fixation techniques.
