Meet your physician
Care grounded in
how you move.
Dr. Kramer is a podiatrist and foot and ankle surgeon in Encinitas. He cares for common foot problems, sports injuries, fractures, arthritis, and conditions that may need surgery.
Originally from Holt, Michigan, he earned a B.S. in Athletic Training at Michigan State University. His athletic training experience includes collegiate sports and the Detroit Pistons—experience that informs his understanding of movement, injury, and recovery.
He earned his Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree at the California School of Podiatric Medicine at Samuel Merritt University, then completed his foot and ankle surgical residency at Scripps Memorial Hospital Encinitas.
His approach starts with listening. He explains the problem, discusses treatment options, and works with you on a plan that fits your symptoms and daily life. Routine podiatry and nonsurgical treatment are part of that care.
