Dr. Sydney Shakespeare
PODIATRIST, FOOT & ANKLE SURGEON
Sydney Shakespeare, DPM is starting August in Princeton, Bridgewater and Hillsborough offices.
Dr. Shakespeare earned her undergraduate degree in Biology from Briar Cliff University in Sioux City, Iowa, where she also played basketball. She received her medical degree from the Arizona College of Podiatric Medicine and completed her residency at Western Reserve Hospital in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio, serving as Chief Resident and gaining experience at the Cleveland Clinic. She went on to complete a fellowship in foot and ankle trauma and reconstruction at the Orthopedic Institute Brielle Orthopedics.
As an active participant in professional development, Dr. Shakespeare has attended or taught at over 20 surgical conferences and courses, including the renowned Baltimore Limb Deformity Course.
Her own athletic injuries made her passionate about sports medicine, but she enjoys all aspects of foot and ankle care—from plantar fasciitis and wound management to total ankle replacements. Dr. Shakespeare specializes in minimally invasive procedures such as bunion and hammertoe correction, as well as complex reconstructions for flat feet, high arches, and other lower limb conditions. She believes surgery is a last resort, preferring the least invasive options when possible.
