Podiatrist for Senatobia, MS Patients
Foot Health Centers is a short I-55 drive north in Hernando and Southaven. Michael G. Lyons, DPM and Robert J. Wenzler, DPM.
If you live in Senatobia or elsewhere in Tate County, you don't have to go all the way to Memphis to see a foot and ankle specialist. Dr. Michael G. Lyons and Dr. Robert J. Wenzler see Senatobia patients at our Hernando and Southaven offices, both a straightforward drive up I-55. Digital X-ray is on site and may be used during an evaluation when clinically appropriate.
Senatobia is a straight run up I-55 to our Hernando office, which is why many Tate County patients choose us over driving to Memphis. For diabetic wound patients who need weekly rechecks, that predictable 20-minute interstate drive makes a full course of treatment realistic.
We see Senatobia patients for the full range of podiatry — heel pain, bunions, ingrown and fungal toenails, diabetic foot exams — but wound care and limb salvage are where the distance matters most. If you have a non-healing sore, we would rather see you early than after an infection has set in.
Getting here: Senatobia patients take I-55 north and reach our Hernando office in roughly 20–25 minutes (Exit 280). We regularly see patients from Tate County, Mississippi, including the Northwest Mississippi Community College, I-55 Exit 265, Senatobia's Main Street, Arkabutla Lake areas.
Why Senatobia patients come to see us
- Bunions. A bunion that rubs in work shoes or keeps getting bigger is worth an exam. We start with shoe changes, padding, and other conservative steps. If surgery makes sense, we'll explain traditional correction and Lapiplasty, plus what recovery involves. Bunion care
- Heel pain. Pain with your first steps in the morning is often plantar fasciitis. Stretching, supportive shoes, orthotics, and in-office treatment help many people without surgery. Heel pain
- Fungal and ingrown toenails. Thick, discolored nails can be stubborn. We'll talk through realistic treatment options. Painful ingrown nails can often be treated during an office visit. Toenail care
- Diabetic foot care. Yearly diabetic foot exams, nail and callus care, and footwear advice help catch problems early. If you already have a sore that isn't healing, see our wound care for Senatobia patients.
- Ankle sprains. Do you have a rolled ankle that is still swollen, bruised, or giving way after a few days? An exam and X-ray can show whether it's a sprain or something more. Foot & ankle injuries
- Neuropathy. Burning, tingling, or numb feet can have many causes, including diabetes. We check sensation and circulation and help you protect your feet.
Making the drive work
The trip from Senatobia is mostly interstate: get on I-55 north and take Exit 280 for Hernando. Many Tate County patients already drive this way for work, errands, or appointments in DeSoto County. That makes follow-up visits easier to fit in than a trip into Memphis.
When you call, tell us if you'd like to combine visits, for example a recheck and an X-ray on the same day. We'll do what we can. Bring your insurance card, a medication list, and the shoes you wear most. Patient forms can also be downloaded ahead of time from our forms page.
Office hours are Monday through Thursday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Friday, 8 a.m. to noon. If Southaven is easier on a particular day, our Southaven office runs on the same schedule. You can also read about our Hernando office.
