        More Info

        General Info
        While attending the University of Iowa, I looked for a career in the medical field that was challenging and yet set in a controlled comfortable environment. My studies lead me to the Des Moines University College of Podiatric Medicine in Des Moines, Iowa. I was thrilled that there was a study of medicine that was mostly beloved by its patients and not feared like many others in the medical field. Being a foot and ankle specialist has allowed me to work in a comfortable office setting and surgical centers rather than working on floors of a hospital. I am hoping that this brief introduction into my patient care philosophy and educational background will provide you with enough information for you to make an important decision about your foot and ankle physician. The doctor is often more to be feared than the disease. ~French Proverb This Proverb hold true in today's system of medicine and says a lot about the perceived doctor patient relationship. In my clinical experience, patient comfort and education during an appointment are the most important aspects of any doctor visit. My goal as a physician is to make the appointment as relaxing and calming as possible, and to also educate the patient about the condition and possible treatments. I encourage all questions about the condition and treatments. I will explore all options of treatment for every condition and I will only consider surgery when all conservative treatment has been exhausted. Educational and training background is also important for the patient to consider making an informed decision about their physician. I graduated from the University of Iowa with a degree in Chemistry before heading to medical school in Des Moines, Iowa. My education finally ended here in the Chicago area where I completed a rigorous multi-year surgical residency at Norwegian American Hospital. At Norwegian American Hospital, I completed over 800 foot and ankle procedures in 24 months.

        Great Staff and Dr.!

        I was new to the area and didn't have even a general doctor. I searched the web and found Dr. Tiernan. His staff was great and got me in immediately. Dr. Tiernan's expertise and knowledge pinpointed my issues and we took the best course of treatment for me. Dr. Tiernan performed surgery and so far I'm only 2 weeks post op but I couldn't be more pleased with his talent and care of me by all at Advanced Foot and Ankle Center of Illinois in Joliet.

        Very Educated

        Dr. Tiernan is the best. I went to two other orthopedic Dr's and they did nothing for me. Dr. Tiernan found the problem discussed what needed to be done completely and thoroughly. I thought he was very well educated, and knowledgeable in this field. Before I had surgery I was in pain almost 24/7 and walked with a limp to ease some of the pain. After sugery and some physical therapy I walk normally and am in no pain what so ever. Thanks again Dr. Tiernan your the best.
