Get to know Podiatrist Dr. Travis Bodeker, who serves patients in Humble, Texas.

Dr. Bodeker, Founder of Fall Creek Foot & Ankle, is a native Texan, a proud Aggie, a devoted husband to his beautiful wife Erin, and a loving father to their adorable children.

He and his team of professional staff at Fall Creek Foot & Ankle are absolutely passionate about providing the highest level of foot and ankle care to every patient who enters their practice. Most importantly, they have made it their goal and ultimate mission to create a practice where exceptional patient comfort, a positive patient experience, patient-centered care, and a strong and lasting physician-patient relationship are all top priorities. 

Though Dr. Bodeker has had the opportunity to be trained and employed by some of the best and brightest podiatrists in Texas, it has been his goal, passion, and life-long mission to create a podiatry practice that truly offered a medical office experience like no other. It is for this reason that Fall Creek Foot & Ankle was established, as patients of the practice can enjoy an exceptional level of care in an atmosphere that is more reminiscent of a health & wellness spa than a medical practice. This spirit is noticed not only in the décor of the practice but also in the warm and welcoming ambiance that permeates throughout.

In preparing to best serve the patient and fulfill his ultimate goal of providing the highest level of care, Dr. Bodeker spent many years fulfilling his educational requirements and undergoing rigorous medical training. He started by receiving a Bachelor of Science degree in Kinesiology with a concentration in Exercise Physiology from Texas A&M University. He then went on to attend the Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science, where he completed his Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from the Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine. Upon graduation, he completed his residency at Kingwood Medical Center.

In order to stay up to date in his field, the doctor maintains membership in numerous professional societies, including the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgery, the American Academy of Podiatric Practice Management, the American Podiatric Medical Association, the Texas Podiatric Medical Association, and the Harris County Podiatric Medical Society.

Podiatry is a branch of medicine devoted to the study, diagnosis, and medical and surgical treatment of a variety of disorders of the foot, ankle, and lower extremity. A podiatrist, also known as a podiatric physician or a foot and ankle surgeon, is a medical professional devoted to the treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle, and lower extremity. They can treat injuries and complications from ongoing health issues like diabetes. 

When Dr. Bodeker is not busy taking care of his patients, he enjoys outdoor activities such as hunting, fishing, and camping, as well as being a father and spending quality time with his friends and family.
