Dr. Jay C. Larson, DPM, FACFAS
Dr. Larson is deeply passionate about his patients and his profession. His philosophy is simple: treat others the way he would want to be treated.
A native of Logan, Utah, Dr. Larson attended Sky View High School before taking a two-year sabbatical to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Thailand. Upon returning, he earned a degree in Public Health Education from Utah State University. He then worked as a Health Education Specialist, teaching classes on diabetes management, smoking cessation, and disease prevention. Simultaneously, he gained valuable medical experience as an Anesthesia Technician in the Operating Room at Logan Regional Hospital. His love for teaching extends into his medical practice, where he believes patient education is key to long-term health and well-being.
In 2004, Dr. Larson moved to Arizona with his young family to join the inaugural podiatry class at Midwestern University in Glendale. After graduating in 2008, he pursued a three-year surgical residency at Genesys Regional Medical Center in Grand Blanc, Michigan. During his final year, he was elected Chief Resident and served on multiple hospital committees. In 2011, he returned to Arizona and has been a dedicated provider at Sole Foot & Ankle Specialists ever since.
Dr. Larson has been happily married to his wife, Jennifer, for 25 years. Together, they have three children—Aspen, Autumn, and Brighton—as well as two beloved cats, Zoey and Koda.
Outside of work, Dr. Larson enjoys mountain biking, skiing, hiking, and reading, but most of all, spending time with his family. A passionate landscape photographer, his stunning images are proudly displayed throughout the office. He is also an active volunteer in his church, scouting programs, and serves as head coach for a high school mountain bike team.
Dr. Larson is board-certified by the American Board of Podiatric Medicine and is a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons.
