Footworx Active Is Now Healthworx Active
Same team. Same trusted podiatry care. A bigger commitment to your health. We’ve grown from foot and ankle specialists into a practice that cares for you from head to toe — and we’re proud to do it under a name that reflects how much we can now help.
Our Story
As Footworx Active, we earned our reputation as Fort Myers’ go-to podiatry practice. Year after year, our patients told us the same thing: they wished they could get this level of care for the rest of their health, too. So we expanded. Healthworx Active keeps everything you loved about Footworx Active — the providers, the expertise, the personal attention — and adds the wellness, coaching, and fitness services that help you stay active for life.
The idea was never to become a different practice. It was to finish what we started. When Dr. Soorena Sadri and Gina Sadri co-created Footworx Active in 2020, the goal was simple: treat people, not just symptoms. Time and again, a patient would come in for a foot or ankle issue, and the real conversation would turn to the things working against their recovery — weight, activity, nutrition, the daily habits that either help the body heal or hold it back. We could fix the foot. We wanted to help the whole person.
Healthworx Active is the answer to those conversations. It’s the same office, the same faces, and the same standard of care you already trust — now built to support you well beyond the exam room.
The Founders
Healthworx Active was built by two people with one shared standard of care.
Podiatric Physician & Surgeon
Board-certified with 13 years of experience and a surgical residency behind him, Dr. Sadri leads our clinical care and currently serves as Vice-Chair of the Florida Board of Podiatric Medicine. He treats the full range of foot and ankle conditions while championing fitness and preventative medicine as part of every patient’s care.
Certified Health & Wellness Coach
Practice Director
Gina directs the practice and co-created it to deliver a better patient experience from start to finish. With a background in business, marketing, and consumer research, she leads operations and growth — and, as a certified wellness coach, helped shape the whole-person services at the heart of Healthworx Active.
Why We Changed Our Name
“Footworx” told you exactly what we did. But it no longer told you everything we can do. As we added wellness coaching, preventative care, and fitness guidance, the old name started to sell our patients short. Healthworx Active reflects the full scope of our care while keeping the spirit that built our reputation: active, hands-on, and focused on getting you moving. Nothing about our ownership, our team, or our commitment to you has changed — only the size of the promise we’re able to keep.
Still Your First Choice for Podiatry
Our growth changes nothing about our foot and ankle care. The same providers, the same clinical excellence, the same focus on getting you back on your feet. Podiatry is our foundation — and the services we’ve added are proven to support better outcomes for the patients we already serve.
Whether you’re managing heel pain, recovering from an injury, living with diabetes, or simply trying to stay on your feet for the people and activities you love, you’ll find the same expert, surgeon-led care that made us Fort Myers’ trusted name in podiatry.
Whole-Person Care, From the First Step
Healthy feet are where it starts — but they’re rarely where the story ends. The same patient who walks in with foot pain is often navigating the bigger picture of staying active and well as they age. Our expanded services are designed to close that gap, so you don’t have to coordinate your care across a half-dozen offices that never talk to each other.
Under one roof, our patients now have access to expert podiatric medicine and surgery, certified health and wellness coaching, preventative and lifestyle medicine, and fitness guidance built around real, sustainable movement. Each service reinforces the others — because better overall health leads to better outcomes for the conditions we’ve always treated.
What We Believe
Movement is medicine. The ability to stay active is one of the strongest predictors of long-term health, and protecting it is at the center of everything we do.
Care should be personal. You are not a chart or a diagnosis code. We take the time to know you, explain your options, and build a plan that fits your life.
Prevention beats repair. The best outcome is the problem you never have. We educate our patients on the habits that keep them healthy, not just the procedures that fix them.
Trust is earned every visit. We grew because our patients told their friends and family about us. We intend to keep it that way.
Our Mission
To keep our community moving — from the first step to a fully active life — with expert, compassionate, whole-person care.
