Dr. Lydia Regis

The practice sits between Chelsea Market and the west side piers, a quiet footnote amid the neighborhood’s bustle. Foot care here means more than basic cuticles and calluses — ingrown nails, heel fissures, diabetic foot exams, and custom orthotics are all in the mix. Athletes drop in after long runs, parents arrive with kids whose shoes seem to shrink overnight, and commuters squeeze in 15-minute quick tune-ups between subway shifts. Bunions, plantar fasciitis, and fungal nails receive the same careful attention as sports injuries or post-surgical recoveries. Finding specialists who still measure arches and stride can be tricky downtown — this is one small storefront where the focus stays on the lower limb.

At 110 W 14th St, inside a row of converted storefronts, the clinic operates under one name. Call ahead and someone can explain imaging or brace options before you arrive. The same line also helps with last-minute concerns — same-day cancellations pop up, and the shin splints or Achilles strains that flare up between workouts rarely wait for tomorrow. Map and directions live inline for anyone weaving through the West Village grid: find the door without backtracking.
