Meet Shawana
Hi! I’m Shawana, the office manager at Opensky Podiatry. I was born and raised in Skokie, IL, and I’m currently studying at DePaul University. I’m in the office on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, answering phones, managing appointments, and keeping things on track (most of the time!).
One of my favorite parts of the job is chatting with our patients, sometimes a little too much if you ask anyone who knows me. Luckily, I work with a pretty funny boss who keeps things light and makes every day interesting. When I’m not at work or school, I’m probably catching up with friends, watching something ridiculous on Netflix, or pretending I didn’t forget to do my homework.
If you call the office, you’ll probably hear me first, and yes, I might throw in a foot pun or two. Working at a podiatry office, it’s only right that we stay on our toes!

What Our Patients Say
Our visits with Dr. Opensky are always gentle and entertaining almost to the point of being fun. Dr. has got a nice personality and is also helpful and knowledgeable.
After my usual foot Doctor canceled my appointment that I waited over a month for, Dr. Opensky's office fit me in the next day after calling them. He fixed the issue and I was in and out in 10 minutes after completing paperwork. I highly recommend!
Dr Opensky was awesome. Great sense of humor and fixed my ingrown toenail. He was extremely thorough in his exam. Also made me a pair of orthotics that are the most comfortable I have ever worn.
I’ve never met a more patient-centered doctor. He asks questions and makes suggestions and is just as invested in my progress as I am. He is kind and smart. I send my whole family to Dr Opensky.
