Dr. Anna Yang has been a part of our practice since 2018. She graduated with honors from Tulane 

University in 2011 with a major in Neuroscience. Afterward, she attended California School of Podiatric Medicine at Samuel Merritt University and graduated in 2015 with honors as well.

She completed her residency at Jesse Brown VA Medical Center in Chicago, IL.

Additionally, she performed a wide range of treatments focusing on foot and ankle surgery, sports medicine, tendon pathology, diabetic lower extremity/limb salvage, bunion, wound care, and heel pain. Her goal is to provide exceptional care with an emphasis on patient education.  

Dr. Yang recently got married and currently lives in Naperville with her husband. During her free time, she enjoys enjoying running, traveling, and the delicious food the Chicago suburbs have to offer.
