/ AREAS WE SERVE / SHAVANO PARK
The Podiatry Group of South Texas is proud to serve the Shavano Park community — one of northwest San Antonio's most distinguished and carefully preserved independent cities. Incorporated in 1956 along the edge of the Texas Hill Country, Shavano Park has spent nearly 70 years cultivating an estate-quality residential environment where professionals, executives, physicians, and their families have chosen to build their lives and careers.
Shavano Park residents are active, accomplished, and have high standards for every aspect of their lives — including their healthcare. Dr. Andrew Gunter, DPM understands that a Shavano Park patient expects a thorough evaluation, clear options, and a treatment plan that respects both the sophistication of their health literacy and the demands of their active lifestyle. Whether you're managing a bunion that's affecting your tennis game at the Shavano Park Tennis Club, dealing with heel pain that's limiting your walks through the Hill Country edge neighborhoods, or navigating a foot condition that's affecting your daily professional performance, Dr. Gunter provides the precision and patience this community deserves.
For the physicians commuting to the South Texas Medical Center, the executives heading to USAA, and the established families who have made Shavano Park their long-term home, your foot health is not an afterthought — it is foundational to everything you do. Dr. Gunter is here to protect it.
Dr. Andrew Gunter, DPM is a residency-trained podiatric surgeon specializing in bunion treatment, heel pain, foot arthritis, diabetic foot care, and custom orthotics. He trained at NewYork-Presbyterian / Weill Cornell and brings that standard of care to every Shavano Park patient.
Precision Foot & Ankle Care for the Shavano Park Lifestyle
From minimally invasive bunion surgery to custom orthotics and arthritis management, Dr. Gunter provides comprehensive foot and ankle care for the active, accomplished residents of Shavano Park — with the thoroughness and precision this community expects.
Bunion Treatment
Bunions are among the most common foot conditions in adults aged 45 and older, and Shavano Park's established professional and executive demographic reflects this reality well. Dr. Gunter offers both conservative management for patients who prefer to delay surgery and minimally invasive bunion correction for those ready for a definitive solution — with smaller incisions, less postoperative discomfort, and a faster return to tennis, golf, and the active lifestyle that Shavano Park residents value. He evaluates each patient individually to recommend the most appropriate approach.
Heel Pain & Tennis / Golf Injuries
Plantar fasciitis and heel pain are among the most common foot conditions in active adults — and Shavano Park's tennis and golf community sees its share. Whether your pain develops on the courts at the Shavano Park Tennis Club, during a round at a nearby Hill Country course, or simply from the demands of a full professional day on your feet, Dr. Gunter identifies the biomechanical root cause and designs a treatment plan that gets you back to activity without unnecessary downtime.
Foot & Ankle Arthritis
For Shavano Park's established residents — a community where nearly 30% of residents are 65 or older — arthritis of the foot and ankle is one of the most common long-term conditions that affects quality of life and mobility. Dr. Gunter takes a conservative-first approach: reducing joint stress with precision custom orthotics, managing inflammation, and modifying activity to preserve function and comfort. For an active Shavano Park resident, maintaining mobility is not optional — it is the goal.
Diabetic Foot Care
For Shavano Park patients managing diabetes — many of whom are medically knowledgeable and already working with specialists — Dr. Gunter provides comprehensive diabetic foot exams, early wound detection, vascular and neurological assessment, and preventive care fully coordinated with your primary care and endocrinology teams. Annual diabetic foot exams are covered by Medicare and most major insurance plans. Early, consistent monitoring is the most effective protection against serious complications.
Custom Orthotics
Precision custom orthotics are one of the most effective long-term investments in foot health for active adults — providing support tailored specifically to your foot structure, gait, and lifestyle. For Shavano Park patients who play tennis, golf, or maintain active routines into their 60s and 70s, custom orthotics built around your actual biomechanics make a measurable difference over generic off-the-shelf alternatives. Dr. Gunter designs orthotics to match both your diagnosis and your activity level.
All Foot & Ankle Conditions
Dr. Gunter also treats: ingrown toenails, hammertoes, neuromas, Achilles tendonitis, fungal nails, flat feet, ankle instability, and more. Whatever is affecting your comfort, mobility, or performance — Dr. Gunter provides thorough evaluation and evidence-based treatment for every Shavano Park patient. Most major insurance plans accepted, including Medicare.
