When it comes to complex foot and ankle care, Dr. Mark Hardy is a name that surgeons and patients alike have come to trust. As our most experienced surgeon here on the West Side, Dr. Hardy has built a reputation for taking on the cases that others simply cannot.

His schedule is often reserved for the most intricate reconstructions and second opinions. It is not uncommon for patients to travel from across Ohio, and even out of state, to seek his specialized perspective. Dr. Hardy’s approach is rooted in a deep understanding of the foot and ankle, which he has shared with the global medical community for years.

Beyond the operating room, Dr. Hardy is a true thought leader in the field. He has lectured and published his work both nationally and internationally, and he plays a vital role in training the next generation of foot and ankle surgeons. His influence even reaches into the tools used in the field, as he actively works in surgical product development and design.

At Balance Foot & Ankle, we are proud to have a surgeon of his caliber leading our complex reconstructive efforts. Dr. Hardy’s dedication to innovation and education ensures that our patients receive the most advanced care available today.

At Balance Foot & Ankle, we believe that care begins before you even step through our doors. Today, we are proud to highlight a team member who truly lives out that mission every single day.

Barb Schulze has a special way of making our patients feel like family. She keeps a close watch on our entrance, and the moment she sees someone who might need a little extra support, she is there to help.

Whether she is greeting an elderly patient at the door or walking them safely back to their car after an appointment, Barb’s observant eye and kind heart ensure that no one has to navigate their journey alone.

It is these quiet, consistent acts of kindness that define our patient-centered approach. Thank you, Barb, for your dedication to our community and for always going the extra mile!
