Why You Have Toenail Fungus and What Actually Gets Rid of It || Marian Footcare Podcast | Ep. 10
Six months ago my patient walked into the clinic with toenail fungus that had been bothering her for years. In this episode, she's showing her results. In Episode 10 of the Marian Footcare Podcast, I sit down with her to walk through her full six month journey using the A.R.C. FOX Laser for fungal nail treatment. But before the reveal, I break down everything you need to know — what causes toenail fungus, why it's so persistent, and what your treatment options actually look like from topical treatments to oral medication to laser therapy. Then we let the results speak for themselves. If you've been living with toenail fungus and wondering whether laser treatment is worth it, this episode was made for you. 📍 Full episodes and resources: https://beacons.ai/marianfootcare (https://beacons.ai/marianfootcare) Educational Disclaimer: All content is presented strictly for medical education and informational purposes and is not intended as a substitute for personalized medical advice.

From Puncture Wound to Amputation - And What Came After | Marian Footcare Podcast | Ep. 9
A puncture wound. A patient carrying some of the heaviest comorbidities we see in podiatric medicine, diabetes, end-stage renal disease, peripheral neuropathy, visual impairment, and poor circulation.
What followed was one of the most complex case trajectories I've managed, a diabetic foot ulcer that progressed to bone infection and required amputation of the fourth and fifth toes and metatarsals.
And then it healed.
In this episode, I go over the full arc of this case from the moment the patient walked in to a fully healed amputation wound, the clinical decisions, the setbacks, the surgical intervention, and ultimately, the outcome.
This is what podiatric medicine looks like when the odds are stacked and the work still gets done.

Not Every Patient Goes Home | Marian Footcare Podcast | Ep. 7
Not every day in the clinic ends with a win. In this episode, Dr. Marian Davis pulls back the curtain on what podiatric medicine actually looks like — the full-thickness wounds that respond to surgical intervention, and the patients whose living conditions make even basic wound care nearly impossible. Homeless patients, socioeconomic barriers, severe wounds with no reliable environment to heal in. Dr. Davis shares what a difficult day in the clinic really feels like — the cases that go right, and the ones that stay with you long after the appointment ends. This is podiatry without the highlight reel. For medical education purposes only. Content is not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Saving the Foot: Toe Amputation, MIS, and a Second Chance | Marian Footcare Podcast | Ep. 6
In this episode, Dr. Davis walks us through a compelling non-diabetic case where a history of Achilles tendon rupture permanently altered a patient's gait, and with the patients existing hammertoes caused repetitive toe-to-floor dragging that ultimately led to a 2nd toe amputation. Rather than stopping there, Dr. Davis takes a proactive approach, performing Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) on the remaining toes to correct the deformity and prevent further amputation down the line.

Transmetatarsal Amputation (TMA) Revision for a Non-Healing DFU | Marian Footcare Podcast | Ep. 5
In Episode 5 of the Marian Footcare Podcast, Dr. Imaze Marian Davis presents a complex limb salvage case involving revision of a prior transmetatarsal amputation (TMA) to address a diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) that failed to heal.
Dr. Davis begins by reviewing the patient’s history, including the initial amputation performed elsewhere and the factors that contributed to delayed healing. She discusses the challenges commonly seen in post-amputation patients—such as pressure redistribution, soft tissue compromise, infection risk, and biomechanical imbalance.
The episode then focuses on the decision-making process behind performing a TMA revision, with emphasis on achieving a more functional, stable, and durable residual limb. Dr. Davis explains the surgical approach, key considerations for wound closure, and strategies aimed at promoting healing while reducing the risk of further complications.
This case highlights the importance of thoughtful surgical planning in limb salvage and the critical role podiatry plays in managing complex diabetic foot conditions. It offers valuable insight for both patients and clinicians into how advanced interventions can help close chronic wounds and preserve mobility.

This episode captures the procedure as it happens, providing a unique perspective on both the clinical decision-making and surgical technique involved in treating a painful ingrown toenail complicated by excessive granulation tissue. Dr. Davis explains what a pyogenic granuloma is, why it develops, and how it contributes to persistent pain and inflammation.

Hammertoe Deformities and How to Fix Them | Marian Footcare Podcast | Ep. 2
In Episode 2 of the Marian Footcare Podcast, Dr. Imaze Marian Davis, DPM presents a detailed case review of a "forefoot slam" hammertoe deformity treated using Minimally Invasive Surgery.
This episode begins with the patient’s clinical presentation, including the structural deformities, symptoms, and functional limitations that led to surgical intervention. Dr. Davis explains the underlying causes of hammertoes—highlighting the role of biomechanical imbalance, tendon dysfunction, and progressive deformity over time.
The focus then shifts to surgical management, where Dr. Davis walks through her use of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) techniques to correct the deformity. She discusses the rationale behind the procedure, key steps in the correction, and how MIS allows for precise realignment while minimizing tissue disruption.
