Looking for a Podiatrist or plastic surgeon perhaps that uses more cosmetic less invasive procedures to correct ingrown toenails. Removing the nail seems way too extreme to me for my 7 year old girl. Help!

I just took my 14 yr old son to Dr. Tam in Milford... only the edge of the nail needed to be removed. The worst part of the procedure was 2 shots to numb the toe. I won't lie, it wasn't pretty & seemed painful but he didn't feel a thing after that. Dr. Tam was very soft spoken & understanding. The nurse was wonderful. I should also mention that other Dr's in the area couldn't fit us in but we were able to get a same day (emergency) appt. http://www.dpmdocs.com/
