Biography
Dr. Samantha Sklar has been working in the Podiatry world since high school in her father’s practice. It was working with her father, and seeing his passion and dedication for his profession, that inspired her to follow in his path. Dr. Sklar first studied at DePaul University in downtown Chicago. She then traveled to Philadelphia to study Podiatry at Temple University. In 2015, Dr. Sklar completed her three year PMSR-RRA residency at Presence Saint Joseph in Chicago. During her residency she learned how to perform forefoot, hind-foot, and ankle surgeries under many esteemed Podiatrists and Orthopedic surgeons throughout the Chicagoland area. When not treating patients, Dr. Sklar will spend her time doing spin classes, kettle bells, and running. She also loves hanging out with her friends playing the latest video games on her Playstation. Most of all, she loves taking her cat – Bob – on long walks and exploring all the cool new restaurants in the West Loop of Chicago. Dr. Sklar looks forward to getting to know you and offer suggestions on both non-surgical and surgical options and happily address all questions or concerns you may have.

If you've been thinking of having bunion surgery but were scared because of everything you've read, be afraid no more! Dr Sam Sklar and her father have changed my life - I know that sounds extreme but after years of pain and resigning myself to the fact that I was just going to have to live with it, I can tell you that it doesn't have to be that way. If your bunions let you, run to Foot First for your bunionectomies. From the start, Dr Sam put me at ease and I had full confidence that my feet were in great hands. I'm now a year post-surgery and my feet have never felt better. The whole process was smooth and Dr Sam and the staff were always friendly and professional but with a relaxed atmosphere. From being weight bearing immediately post surgery, being in a shoe in a couple of weeks to having minimal pain and scarring, there was very little impact on my family. Thank you to both Drs Sklar and the team!
