Your Trusted Podiatrist for Schertz, TX
Andrew Gunter, DPM
Providing expert foot and ankle care to Schertz's military families, veterans, and civilian residents along the I-35 corridor — including heel pain, sports injuries, pediatric foot care, bunion treatment, and custom orthotics for one of northeast San Antonio's fastest-growing communities.
/ AREAS WE SERVE / SCHERTZ
The Podiatry Group of South Texas is proud to serve the Schertz community — one of the fastest-growing and most vibrant suburbs in the entire San Antonio region. Situated along the I-35 corridor with Randolph Air Force Base just minutes away, Schertz has attracted military families, veterans, and civilian professionals who want the best of both worlds: the active outdoor lifestyle of a community built around parks and trails, the security of one of the top school districts in the metro, and the convenience of a strategic location between San Antonio and Austin.
Schertz residents are active, family-oriented, and take their health seriously. Whether you are a veteran managing the long-term effects of service, a military family looking for a podiatrist who understands the demands of military life, a parent bringing in a young athlete dealing with heel pain or a sports injury, or a professional whose daily demands leave your feet and ankles paying the price — Dr. Andrew Gunter, DPM is here to provide the kind of thorough, patient-first care that Schertz residents deserve.
From the walking trails at Crescent Bend Nature Park to the youth sports fields served by SCUC ISD and the YMCA on the Schertz Parkway corridor, this is a community in motion — and foot and ankle health is foundational to that motion. Dr. Gunter provides expert evaluation, clear communication, and evidence-based treatment tailored to the active lives that Schertz residents lead.
Dr. Andrew Gunter, DPM is a residency-trained podiatric surgeon specializing in heel pain, sports injuries, bunion treatment, pediatric foot care, custom orthotics, and diabetic foot care. He trained at NewYork-Presbyterian / Weill Cornell and brings that standard of care to every Schertz patient.
Comprehensive Foot & Ankle Care for Schertz Families, Veterans & Active Residents
From plantar fasciitis on the Crescent Bend trails to youth sports injuries and veteran foot care, Dr. Gunter provides the full spectrum of podiatric services for Schertz's active, growing community — with same-day appointments and most insurance plans accepted including Medicare.
Heel Pain & Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis is the most common podiatric condition across all of Schertz's demographics — from veterans whose service put years of high-impact load on their feet, to trail runners and walkers at Crescent Bend Nature Park, to warehouse and logistics workers on the I-35 corridor who spend long shifts on hard surfaces. Dr. Gunter identifies the mechanical root cause of your heel pain and builds a tailored treatment plan that addresses the actual problem — not just the symptoms. Custom orthotics, targeted therapy, and in-office treatment options are available. Same-day appointments at (210) 581-9800.
Sports & Activity Injuries
Schertz's active community — with YMCA programs, SCUC ISD youth athletics, Crescent Bend trails, and Olympia Hills Golf Course — generates consistent demand for sports-related foot and ankle care. Dr. Gunter treats ankle sprains, stress fractures, Achilles tendinitis, and overuse injuries for athletes of all ages. For young SCUC ISD athletes and adult recreational sports participants alike, Dr. Gunter provides fast, accurate diagnosis and a return-to-activity plan that is both safe and efficient.
Pediatric Foot Care
Schertz's large family population — with 20% of residents under 15 — and its robust youth sports culture through SCUC ISD make pediatric foot care a meaningful part of serving this community. Dr. Gunter evaluates flat feet, Sever's disease in growing young athletes, in-toeing and out-toeing, and sports-related injuries in children. Addressing foot and ankle concerns early prevents long-term problems and keeps Schertz's young athletes active and healthy.
Bunion Treatment
Bunions are highly prevalent across Schertz's adult demographic — affecting residents across the 35–65 age range who may have been managing discomfort for years before seeking care. Dr. Gunter offers both conservative management for patients who prefer to delay surgery and minimally invasive bunion correction for those ready for a lasting solution. Every patient receives a thorough individual evaluation and an honest recommendation based on their specific severity, activity level, and lifestyle goals.
Custom Orthotics
Precision custom orthotics are one of the highest-value interventions for Schertz's active population — from veterans and military families managing the cumulative effects of service, to trail runners, golfers, and logistics workers who are on their feet daily. Dr. Gunter designs custom orthotics built around your actual foot structure, gait mechanics, and lifestyle demands — providing measurable long-term benefit over generic alternatives. A thorough biomechanical evaluation is part of every orthotic consultation.
Veteran & Diabetic Foot Care
For Schertz's large veteran population — the highest concentration of any community in your practice's service area — Dr. Gunter provides comprehensive care for the long-term foot and ankle conditions most common in military service. For patients managing diabetes, annual Medicare-covered exams, vascular assessment, wound detection, and coordination with your care team are all part of the service. All conditions treated. Most major insurance plans accepted.
