About

Dr. Paul Smith is a podiatrist practicing at Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital in Lebanon, NH., and is currently seeing patients from both Vermont and New Hampshire. Dr. Smith is a physician who specializes in the evaluation and treatment of foot and ankle disorders, as well as lower extremity conditions that are related to or influenced by the foot. Dr. Smith has been practicing in Vermont and New Hampshire since 2009, and prior to that he worked as an orthopedic PA for 7 years in New Hampshire. Dr. Smith is a member of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine. Dr. Smith specializes in foot and ankle reconstructive surgery, Sports Medicine, diabetic foot conditions, wound care, and pediatrics. Dr. Smith considers his approach to be that of a reconstructionist, and evaluates the foot condition by looking at the whole body as an integrated kinetic chain. Each link in that chain can affect another link. He treats conditions with a similar philosophy by altering structure to improve the mechanical function of the lower extremity either conservatively by using orthotics, physical therapy, and shoe gear or surgically with reconstructive techniques. He also employs regenerative medicine techniques including Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Technology, and Platelet Rich Plasma Injection Therapy.
