Vincent C. Marino, DPM

Dr. Marino believes the old adage “when your foot hurts, everything hurts”. He has been helping people with foot and ankle pain for over 29 years. He believes patients should be well informed about their medical problems so that they could make educational choices about their foot and ankle care.

Originally from New York, Dr. Marino graduated Cum Laude from The College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts in 1981. He spent time working towards a master’s degree in Microbiology before beginning podiatric medical school in New York where he graduated Cum Laude from the New York College of Podiatric Medicine. After completing his foot and ankle surgical residency, Dr. Marino moved out to California in the summer of 1988. He originally began practicing as an associate until opening his own practice in San Francisco in 1989. He added a satellite office in Sacramento in the early 2000’s and has recently completed the purchase of the practice of his longtime associate Fred Youngswick, DPM whose untimely death was a shock to all who knew him.

Dr. Marino is Double Board Certified. He is certified by the American Board of Foot & Ankle Surgery and by the American Board of Podiatric Medicine (formerly known as the American Board of Podiatric Orthopedics and Primary Podiatric Medicine). He is a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons and the American College of Foot & Ankle Orthopedics & Medicine. His skills are wide ranging with emphasis on foot & ankle sports medicine and orthotic therapy, arthroscopic surgery of the foot and ankle, and complicated foot and ankle problems.

Dr. Marino is also a Qualified Medical Examiner (QME) for the State of California and has particular expertise in treating and navigating the worker’s compensation system. He has lectured to numerous organizations on foot and ankle injuries in the work place and continues to perform peer reviews for a number of worker’s compensation insurance companies.

Dr. Marino was an avid athlete during his high school and college days and even played in the Men’s Senior Baseball league until 1989 when a knee injury ended his baseball career. He was also in the Fire Department in his town on Long Island during medical school and residency. Dr. Marino cherishes his family time and lives in the North Bay with his wife Sharon of 22 years and their two children Nicole and Anthony, both of whom are in their late teens.
