Dr. Gia-Cat Pham is originally from Vietnam where he studied and received a Medical Doctor degree before moving to the United States in 2009. Being a new immigrant with both a medical degree and experience practicing medicine, he was excited for the opportunities and challenges of pursuing a career in medicine in the United States. Dr. Pham chose to further his academic pursuits in the field of Podiatry where he could help patients with their foot and ankle health concerns.
Dr. Pham attended the New York College of Podiatric Medicine where he studied foot and ankle conditions and their associated surgical procedures. Following his time in New York, he completed three years of residency at JFK Medical Center in Florida, where he served as chief resident. In this role, he further expanded his knowledge and surgical skills in foot and ankle disorders, including foot and ankle trauma, reconstruction, joint replacement, and sports medicine.
Now with Bay Area Foot Care, Dr. Pham utilizes both non-surgical and surgical treatments to treat all concerns of the foot and ankle.
In his spare time, Dr. Pham enjoys spending time with his wife and their three children. He also loves to play sports, read books, and cook – especially traditional Vietnamese food.
He is proud to serve patients who speak either English or Vietnamese.
