Specialties

Dr. Van Gompel is a specialist in foot and ankle surgery. He has extensive experience in all areas of foot and ankle medicine with an emphasis in reconstructive and arthroscopic surgery. He received his surgical training at Kaiser Permanente South Bay Consortium Foot and Ankle Surgery residency program. Here he performed numerous procedures involving musculoskeletal reconstruction, diabetic limb salvage, Charcot reconstruction, trauma, neuromuscular disorders and rheumatoid arthritis. He has received specific training in arthroscopic and endoscopic procedures involving the foot and ankle with an emphasis on sports medicine.

He also is trained in treating biomechanics disorders involving the lower extremity. He offers treatments using custom foot orthotics and bracing when necessary. This method of treatment can be effective at returning patients back to their sport or normal every day activity and avoiding a surgical procedure.

Having trained in the San Francisco Bay Area, he is well accustomed to the diverse pathology and patient population. His goal in treatment is to return patients back to their normal activities as quickly and safely as possible. He involves the patient in their treatment process so as to create the optimal situation for healing.
