About

Michael Lemm, DPM practices podiatric medicine in Allied Gardens at Kaiser Permanente Zion Medical Center, 4647 Zion Avenue, San Diego, CA 92120. Lemm graduated from the California School of Podiatric Medicine in 1992 and has practiced within the Southern California Permanente Medical Group for more than three decades, treating conditions of the foot, ankle, and lower extremity across the Kaiser system's San Diego service area. His caseload at the Zion campus emphasizes diabetic foot management, including wound assessment, neuropathy screening, and infection control for patients at risk of complications such as osteomyelitis and Charcot neuroarthropathy. Surgical procedures span nail avulsion for chronic ingrown toenails, neuroma excision, and plantar callus debridement, supported by in-house diagnostic imaging at the Zion facility. The Allied Gardens location on Zion Avenue places the practice within a residential corridor anchored by the Kaiser campus, where Waring Road's small business district meets the 92120 ZIP's family neighborhoods near the I-8 freeway. Post-procedural rehabilitation for complex podiatric cases often involves gait retraining and progressive weight-bearing protocols, and San Diego Sports Medicine Physical Therapy in Grantville provides that post-surgical rehab within the eastern San Diego corridor. Lemm also sees patients at the Kaiser Permanente El Cajon and Vandever medical offices, giving the practice a footprint that spans from Allied Gardens through the 92020 ZIP.
