Our Practice Evolution
In 2015, Dr. Kizzar chose Cañon City as the perfect location to establish his practice and put down roots with his family. His vision for providing exceptional podiatric care to our community led to a significant milestone in 2019 when we relocated to our current facility at 604 S. 9th Street, transforming the former Cañon City Police Annex into a state-of-the-art podiatric care center.
This strategic move allowed us to expand our services and enhance our diagnostic capabilities with advanced on-site technology. Our renovation maintained the building's historic connection to the community while creating a modern, comfortable environment for patient care.
