Providing surgical and non-surgical treatment for the foot, ankle, knee, shoulder, hip, elbow, wrist and hand, her practice offers care for problems resulting from arthritis, deformity, overuse, fractures, sports and traumatic injuries. In 1995, Dr. Dyal completed her fellowship in Foot and Ankle Surgery at the Hospital for Special Surgery. Her impressive credentials began with a B. A. degree with honors from Harvard University followed by medical school at Yale University School of Medicine. Recently, Dr. Dyal was awarded a Certificate of Professional Achievement in Nutrition from Columbia University.
“ Treatment works best when patients follow a plan that fits into their lifestyle. Family, career and activity level all play a part in the particular type of orthopedic treatment that will diminish pain, increase function and allow patients to resume normal activities,” says Dr. Dyal.“ Treatment that addresses the whole individual is the path that always brings the best results.”
And it is this philosophy that set in motion the opening of a state-of-the-art fitness and wellness center. After spending years treating patient’ s problems, Dr. Dyal became interested in the prevention of future issues or further exacerbation of a current problem. Fittingly called Synergy Fitness and Wellness, the center helps achieve overall better health and wellness through an individualized structured approach to exercise, nutrition and lifestyle habits creating a whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.“ It has long been determined that inactivity is the cause of many negative effects on all of us. Basically, inactivity is arisk factor in our health,” states Dr. Dyal, who serves as the facility’ s Medical Director.“ Many people start an exercise program, but don’ t stick it out. Synergy provides accountability because members have an actual appointment and make the journey with trained and motivating professionals.”
The program begins with a one-on-one evaluation to determine individual goals. Each member is supervised by a Certified Personal Trainer in small group or individualized sessions. With the medical oversight of Dr. Dyal, a plan is developed in line with doctors’ recommendations. In addition to a strength, cardio and flexibility training regimen, metabolic testing is offered to determine exact caloric needs to help with nutrition and weight loss plans.
Through the introduction of simple lifestyle changes that incorporate safe, structured exercise, proper nutrition and healthy habits, patients can not only improve orthopedic problems, but develop an overall better quality of and more fulfilling life.
