Dr. Kristen Biel has been in practice since 2011 and she is so very excited to start her own venture, Biel Foot & Ankle Specialists. Her number one priority is YOU! Dr. Biel has gained much clinical and surgical knowledge and strives to heal each and every patient in her practice.
She attended Texas A&M University and achieved a BS degree in Biology in 2004. Whoop!! Dr. Biel received her doctorate in podiatric medicine from Dr. William M. Scholl’s College of Podiatric Medicine in 2008 in Chicago, IL. As a native Houstonian, Dr. Biel returned to Houston and completed her 3 year surgical residency in 2011.
Dr. Biel truly puts her time and effort into each patient, and treats a variety of issues - bunions, hammertoes, warts, heel pain, and much more! Diabetics need regular podiatric care, maintenance for skin and nails, and for blood flow issues, open wounds, and infections, all of which Dr. Biel treats. Athletic injuries, such as tendonitis, fractures, and sprains, are also commonly treated in her office. She sees all age groups.
If needed, Dr. Biel also performs surgical procedures at local hospitals or surgery centers. These surgeries range from simple skin repairs, nerve decompressions, fracture repairs, to complicated flatfoot reconstructions, and limb salvage procedures.
When she is not in the office, she loves exercising with her bootcamp as she loves cooking and baking a lot! It is definitely rewarding to use her own home-grown vegetables from her garden when she’s cooking, another fun hobby she inherited from her grandfather. You can find her relaxing at the end of the day with her dog, Sophie Jo.
Dr. Biel is beyond excited for you to take this adventure with her and help heal Greater Houston one foot at a time!
