What to Expect & Cost

A first visit with Melissa Trok-Albear, DPM typically runs 30–45 minutes and includes an exam of your feet, ankles, and gait, a review of your history, and often on-site imaging. Podiatrists (DPM) are physicians, so most visits are billed to medical insurance. With a podiatrist focus, expect care geared toward that area.

With insurance, expect a standard specialist copay ($30–$60). Self-pay rates generally run $100–$250 for an initial visit, more if X-rays, orthotics, or procedures are involved. Diabetic foot care and medically necessary treatment are commonly covered.

These are general ranges, not Melissa Trok-Albear, DPM's published prices. Confirm fees and coverage directly with the practice.

Before Your First Visit

  • Confirm in-network status — verify the practice takes your specific plan, not just the carrier.
  • Check if you need a referral — some HMO plans require one before they'll cover a specialist.
  • Bring your usual footwear — worn shoes reveal a lot about gait and pressure points.
  • List medications and conditions — especially diabetes or circulation issues, which change foot-care decisions.
  • Confirm the credential — look for DPM (Doctor of Podiatric Medicine) and board certification (ABFAS/ABPM).
