Dr. Joan Tekula, DPM

Dr. Joan Tekula, DPM, was born and raised in New York City.   She is an NYU undergraduate, Temple School of Podiatric Medicine, with a residency in Connecticut—which is what brought her to Northwest Hills. She raised two children, was in private practice, and has been caring for the residents at a residential psychiatric hospital for over 20 years.  Dr. Tekula considers it an honor to take care of the human foot. She says, “ Everyone comes to me in some degree of discomfort and they all leave feeling better.  It’ a gift.  My motto is:  ‘You can limp in but you can’t limp out!’”
