Independent Foot & Ankle Care,
Rooted in Scottsdale
For more than 20 years, Dr. Mark Forman has provided personalized podiatric care with one priority: finding the right path forward for each patient.
Meet Dr. Mark Forman, Scottsdale Podiatrist
Dr. Mark Forman has spent more than two decades caring for patients in Scottsdale, combining advanced podiatric medicine and surgical expertise with a conservative approach to treatment.
That means taking the time to understand what is causing the problem, explaining the options clearly, and exploring appropriate non-surgical treatments before recommending surgery. When surgery is the right choice, Dr. Forman offers advanced techniques, including minimally invasive procedures for bunions and hammertoes.
As one of Scottsdale’s independent podiatry practices, Put Your Feet First is built around personal care. Patients are not rushed through appointments or treated like a number. They are heard, informed, and involved in deciding what comes next.

- Double board-certified in podiatric medicine and surgery
- More than 20 years treating patients in Scottsdale

"Surgery is a solution, not the default. I take the time to understand what’s really going on before recommending the right path forward."
Dr. Mark Forman, DPM
Who Makes the Decisions About Your Care
Put Your Feet First is owned by Dr. Forman, with no private equity firm, management company or outside investors behind it. That shows up in the exam room. Dr. Forman decides how the practice runs, which treatments it offers and when surgery belongs in the conversation.
For patients, it means the doctor you meet is the doctor who follows your case. You’ll get a straight answer about your options, including when a conservative approach makes more sense than a procedure. If you’ve been told elsewhere that you need surgery, you’re welcome to come in for a second opinion.
