At NOMS Healthcare, caring for patients extends beyond our practice walls. We are proud to share that board-certified foot & ankle surgeon Charles J. Hastings, DPM, FACFAS, has volunteered with Remote Area Medical (RAM) during its free healthcare clinic in Columbus, Ohio, on November 7-8, 2026. RAM is a nonprofit organization that provides free medical, dental, and vision care to underserved communities across the country, helping remove barriers to healthcare for those in need.  

Addressing a Critical Need 

Foot and ankle conditions can have a significant impact on mobility, independence, and quality of life. Yet many individuals delay treatment due to financial challenges or limited access to specialized care. Through his volunteer service at the RAM clinic, Dr. Hastings will help provide lower extremity evaluations, education, and treatment recommendations to patients who may otherwise go without care. 

Dr. Hastings' Perspective 

"Access to quality healthcare should never depend on a person's circumstances. I'm honored to volunteer with Remote Area Medical and help provide care to individuals who may not otherwise have access to a foot & ankle specialist. Even small interventions can make a meaningful difference in someone's daily life."

RAM relies on the support of healthcare professionals, volunteers, donors, and community partners to continue its mission. To learn more about volunteering, donating, or upcoming clinics, visit www.ramusa.org.
