About Dr. EiflerWhen Dr. Eifler was 16 years old, he had a foot injury. The podiatrist who cared for him seemed to have a solid work-life balance and that appealed to Dr. Eifler. I was able to shadow him for the summer and decided this career path was for me. He enjoys the mixture of clinical medicine and surgery that allows for a good variation in his workday.Dr. Eifler studied at the Dr. William M. Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine at the Rosalind Franklin University of Science and Medicine (RFUMS), North Chicago, IL, and did his podiatry residency at the John H. Stroger Jr. of Cook County Hospital, in Chicago. His residency included foot and ankle reconstructive surgery with a high emphasis on clinical care and wound care training.

He is a member of the Indiana Podiatric Medical Association and the American Podiatric Medical Association.When he treats a patient, he makes them a partner in their own care. Communication is key and our relationship needs to be trustworthy, he says. The ability to listen, understand, and put a treatment plan that best fits the patients life is the most important aspect of the encounter.Communication coupled with listening provide Dr. Eiflers patients with the best chance for a positive outcome. When a patient visits my clinic, they are willing to express fine details that I fully need to understand, he says.To patients and prospective patients he would say this: I want you to feel as if I am a friend that has given positive lifelong advice for not only the past 20 years of life but, when it has mattered in your life the most.In his own wordsWho is or was the most influential people/role models in your life?My father has been the most influential person in my life.What was your first job growing up?
