Convenient Podiatric Care for Deer Lodge Residents

Patients from Deer Lodge have two convenient options for care at Big Sky Foot & Ankle. Our full-service Butte clinic at 401 S. Alabama St. — just 26 miles east via I-90 — offers comprehensive diagnostic capabilities including in-office X-ray and surgical consultations with board-certified podiatrists Dr. Nathan Judd and Dr. David Brower. For patients who prefer a shorter drive, our monthly Anaconda outreach clinic is only 10 miles from Deer Lodge via MT-1 and sees patients every 2nd Thursday of the month at 1102 Commercial Ave.

Whether you're dealing with a new foot problem or managing a chronic condition, both locations offer the same high standard of podiatric care. Routine concerns such as ingrown toenails, skin and nail conditions, and orthotic fittings are well-suited for the Anaconda outreach visit. More complex issues — fractures, wound care, surgical evaluation, or advanced imaging — are best handled at our fully equipped Butte clinic. Learn more about our full range of podiatry services.
