Rooted in a background of hard work and service, Dr. Ryan hails from a household where his mother, a labor and delivery nurse, and his father, a Chicago police officer, instilled values of diligence and community service.

In practice, Dr. Ryan finds joy in thoroughly evaluating patients, specializing in a range of pathologies related to the foot and ankle, including diabetic foot care, neuropathy, foot and ankle trauma, bunions, and musculoskeletal pathology, and ensuring each patient’s unique story is heard and understood.
