Podiatrist Serving Clarksburg, MD
Clarksburg sits just a few exits up I-270 from the Germantown office, which makes Dr. Gary Feldman, DPM, FACFAS the close-to-home choice for this fast-growing upcounty community.
Clarksburg is Montgomery County’s newest frontier. The neighborhoods around Cabin Branch, Arora Hills, and the Clarksburg Premium Outlets have gone up quickly, and they’ve filled with young families — the kind who spend weekends on the trails at Little Bennett Regional Park, training for a race along Ten Mile Creek, or chasing kids around a brand-new playground. It is one of the most active, youngest-skewing parts of the county.
That energy is good for everything except, sometimes, the feet. The complaints that come down from Clarksburg lean athletic and overuse-driven: the new runner whose heel lights up after ramping up mileage too fast, the parent whose arch aches after a long trail hike, the young athlete who rolls an ankle. Because the Germantown office is close, none of it has to mean a long drive down the Beltway.
