Diana Perry, DPM

Dr. Diana Perry specializes in limb preservation and trauma of the foot. She views working with her patients as a partnership, knowing that together is the best way to keep them on their feet. “One of the biggest ways to keep people engaged in life, is moving,” says Dr. Perry. “If I can help my patients move through their day and help them overcome obstacles, it’s huge to me. I’m excited to do my part when it comes to feet.”

She graduated from Western University of Health Sciences, in Pomona, California.  Dr. Perry received her residency training at Englewood Hospital, in New Jersey, and served as Chief Resident of Clinical Education her last year there.  She then went on to complete a Fellowship program at Keck School of Medicine at the University of Southern California.

Dr. Perry was the recipient of a WICHE PSEP Scholarship. As part of the award, she has committed to caring for underserved communities in Northern Arizona. “It’s so important to be connected to the community,” says Dr. Perry. “One of my goals is to help provide good footwear to those who are not able to buy a sturdy pair of shoes. I’ve worked on drives in the past and the look on people’s faces when they get a pair of good shoes is pure joy…that’s health, that matters.”

As part of the CiC team, Dr. Perry works closely with specialists in interventional radiology, cardiology, and phlebology. This team approach leads to improved outcomes and better lifestyles for patients.
