The North County Foot and Ankle Difference

What makes North County Foot and Ankle stand out from other foot and ankle doctors in Scripps Ranch? Unlike some foot doctors, our podiatrists work with a client-first mentality. When you walk through our front doors, the time you spend in our office is all about you. We believe in a strong physician-patient relationship fortified by one-on-one attention and honest communication.

Before offering foot pain treatment options, we perform a thorough evaluation, taking into account your individual needs, goals, and preferences. Once that's done, we'll discuss your treatment options in detail and come to a mutual decision regarding the best treatment plan for you.

Whether you have a minor hangnail or need complex surgery, you will receive the same level of compassionate care from our medical team. As board-certified podiatrists in Scripps Ranch, our doctors are proud to treat you. You can rest easy knowing they will take the time to explain what's causing your foot pain, what treatments are best suited to your problem, and what steps you should take after treatment.

And while our podiatrists are uniquely qualified to perform surgery, we often recommend non-surgical options, using treatments like orthotics to relieve foot, arch, and heel pain. From sports injuries and bunions to gout and blisters, we're here to help you live life to the fullest without nagging, debilitating foot pain.

A family from Scripps Ranch emerged out of the snow on Lake Arrowhead mountain after they were trapped for two weeks. The Gruber family told ABC 10News they're grateful to all the strangers who helped them survive the ordeal.

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) — The Grubers are happy to be back in San Diego, but the anxiety from their trip stayed with them.

“I have PTSD: I’m like, 'No you can’t eat that much’ oh wait we’re home now we have food," said Wendy Gruber.

"It was a whole different experience, like survival mode for so long.”

The Gruber family was excited to drive up to Lake Arrowhead on February 20. The camera on the front deck of their cabin shows there was barely any snow when they first arrived. A couple of days in, the situation drastically changed.

“By the morning we had probably four-five feet of snow just overnight.”

You can see from this time-lapse how quickly the snow piled up around their cabin. The Grubers and their neighbors had to constantly shovel it off to protect their cars and homes.

“This is our lives right now. We wake up, we shovel, go to sleep, wake up, another four feet of snow.”

The stress of being trapped worsened when they watched an empty cabin burn to the ground after the gas meter broke. The roofs of two nearby grocery stores caved in because of the heavy snow.

The family walked for four hours to get food from a local gas station, but they weren't alone.

“People were hiking up to our cabin to get food for us and our dogs. There was a hunter that gave us meat.”

After two weeks of struggle, they returned to Scripps Ranch on Sunday. The family says they're grateful to the community that helped them survive.

Wendy's relatives are selling shirts on Facebook with 100% of proceeds going toward Lake Arrowhead rescues. If you'd like to help, click here.

The insurance company has told residents they are not renewing policies due to wildfire risk.

SAN DIEGO — More condominium owners are coming forward after not being renewed by Farmer Insurance due to wildfire risk.

The Village Woods complex in Scripps Ranch with 115 condos is the latest to be dropped.

Some HOAs are now considering changing their by-laws to allow individual condo owners to carry their own property insurance. Other HOAs are looking at more expensive policies on the secondary market.

“Our total premium went from $50,000 a year to almost $800,000 a year,” said Dave Sloat, a condo owner in the Scripps Ranch complex.

The Village Woods, $32 million policy covered exterior damage to the entire complex before it was cancelled.

A replacement policy – cobbled together on the secondary market – could now cost each owner an additional $500 per month.

“In addition to our premium going up by 16 times, our deductible has gone from $10,000 per incident to $250,000 per incident,” said Sloat.

The HOA already is seeing the effects. Because of the higher deductible on the replacement policy, the HOA is going to have to use its own reserves to pay for damage to two garages, destroyed last month when two eucalyptus trees fell on them.

But wildfire is the reason why the property insurance policies are not being renewed.

As CBS 8 has reported over the past few weeks, Farmers Insurance recently dropped policies on:

All combined, more than 1,000 homeowners are now looking for affordable property insurance.

Farmers Insurance emailed CBS 8 the following statement:

“While we decline comment on underwriting decisions related to individual customers, similar to other insurers in the state, we regularly review our market exposure and make adjustments, as necessary, to appropriately manage risk.”

Other condo owners in the Scripps Ranch community are starting to price out policies for their own, individual dwellings.

“We're looking into private insurance but there's a problem there with walls that are shared with other residents,” said Mike Colmenero, a condo owner in the Village Woods community.

Changing to individual individual coverage will require changes to the HOA bylaws, requiring a two-third’s vote of all condo owners in the Scripps Ranch complex, according to Sloat.

“The bottom line is we're getting screwed by the insurance companies and our local representatives. Elected officials don't seem to want to do anything to help us,” Sload said.

Owners in Tierrasanta’s Villa Monterey community are preparing to vote on a ballot by March 23 that would “require owners to obtain property insurance for their unit and shared portion of their condominium building” and also allow the COA to levy a $7,250 special assessment per lot to pay for common area insurance. That change would require a majority vote, according to COA documents.

California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara did not respond to a message from CBS 8 inquiring whether he planned to raise the maximum on the state’s commercial FAIR Plan, as requested last week by 18 state legislators.

UPDATE:The office of the California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara responded, after this report was posted, with the following statement:

"Improving insurance options for homeowners associations is a top priority for Commissioner Lara. In November 2021, Commissioner Lara ordered the FAIR Plan to increase its coverage limits for the first time in 25 years -- before these recent reports of non-renewals by insurance companies. The Department of Insurance is doing our due diligence to help protect the residents of homeowners associations now and for the future. We expect to have more to announce on this soon..."

Falcons will take on Napa Justin Siena in Saturday’s championship game

It was David vs. Goliath.

On one side, there was 120-student, No. 16-seeded L.A. Valley Torah. On the other, 2,000-student, No. 2-seeded Scripps Ranch.

On the line was the Southern California Regional Division IV boys basketball championship and a trip to Sacramento for a state championship.

There was no shocking result this time. Goliath prevailed as Scripps rode a huge second quarter in which seven players scored to a 68-54 win.

The Falcons (25-11) will play Napa Justin Siena (20-11) at noon Saturday. Justin Siena defeated Galt Liberty Ranch 42-38.

Since the start of the modern state playoffs, Scripps Ranch, which won the State Division 2-AA football championship, is the first team in San Diego Section history to play for state championships in football and basketball in the same school year.

“This is great,” said Scripps Ranch guard Lamont Wilkerson, who was in early foul trouble and finished with 15 points. “The coaches told us to stay together, play together. Valley Torah is really good. That’s a Cinderella story being a 16 seed and getting this far. We didn’t want to be another chapter in their story.

“To get this far, to win at home is such a blessing.”

After a tight first quarter in which the score was tied four times and the lead changed hands eight, Scripps Ranch opened up a big lead with a 19-4 run to start the second quarter.

The Falcons outscored the Wolfpack (30-4) 17-12 in that quarter and led by 18 at the half with leading scorer Caden Flint scoring just three points and taking two shots.

Scripps Ranch led by 20 at the start of the final quarter, but the Wolfpack cut the margin to 12 with a 10-2 run, then to 10 with 4:40 to play.

Valley Torah, however, could get no closer.

Jax Leatherwood scored 13 points for the Falcons, grabbed eight rebounds and blocked four shots. Chase Weber added 12 points before fouling out.

“I had to play big tonight,” said the 6-foot-8 Leatherwood. “I had to dominate.”

Valley Torah’s Johny Dan, who was averaging 35 points in eight playoff games, led all scorers with 22. Ethan List added 12 points while Noam Mayouhas finished with 11. Gabriel Rbido scored nine points and grabbed eight rebounds.

Since the school opened in 1993, Scripps Ranch has one San Diego Section boys basketball championship. That came in 2007 when the Falcons beat Serra 69-57 for the Division III title.

The State seeds by competitive balance. Since its last 20-win season in 2005-06, Scripps Ranch is 161-205. Over the last 10 years, Valley Torah is 226-71.

No Scripps Ranch boys basketball team has advanced this far.

In 1999, collaborative efforts between the Scripps Ranch Civic Association, the City of San Diego, and McMillin Communities set the stage for the creation of the Scripps Ranch Community Center.

At that time, the building, which was originally located in the Scripps Ranch Marketplace, served as a Sales Pavilion for McMillin Communities, and was no longer needed for its original purpose. The building could not remain in its original location, but McMillin Communities agreed to donate the building to the City of San Diego and move it to another location in the community.

After a series of public meetings, it was agreed that the Butterfly Garden pocket park was the best relocation site. The building was subsequently cut into three sections, transported east down Scripps Poway Parkway, and reassembled at this site. The fireplace, columns and cupola all looked exactly as it had for the previous 6 years. The building was officially opened in September 2000 by Mayor Susan Golding as the Scripps Ranch Community Service Center.

From 2000 to 2009, the City of San Diego and Scripps Ranch Civic Association worked in partnership to promote the City of San Diego’s plan to bring City Services to the local neighborhoods, and to promote the Scripps Ranch Civic Association’s desire to make the Center into a true town hall, with archives of our history available in a relaxing and thought-provoking ambiance, with meeting rooms available for residents of Scripps Ranch.

The center has the E.W. Scripps Meeting Room, which is the area under the cupola, and the Nackey Conference Room, which is located in the eastern wing of the building. E.W. Scripps was the founder of Scripps Ranch, and his photo can be seen above the fireplace. The Nackey Room is named after Nackey Scripps Meanley, the daughter of E.W.Scripps, who lived in a home on the top of the hill overlooking Scripps Ranch Community Center.

In 2009, the City of San Diego decided to shutter the Community Service Center due to budget issues. The Scripps Ranch Civic Association stepped in and negotiated a Use Permit with the City to keep the center available for community meetings, and renamed the building “Scripps Ranch Community Center.” The City still uses office space for the community Park & Recreation Supervisor and the Maintenance Assessment District Supervisor. The Scripps Ranch Elder Care Alliance also now has office space within the center. The Miramar North Planning Committee and a number of Scripps Ranch homeowners associations, non-profits, clubs and community service organizations hold regular meetings in the center.

We permit events that bring in food and/or beverage service. There is no on-site kitchen. Alcoholic beverages are permitted with certificate of insurance naming the SRCA as additionally named insured (insurance companies will do so for you at no cost). The Community Center is available 7 days a week. Events must end by 10 pm. The SRCA does have folding tables for no charge including a limited number of chairs.

The use of the Scripps Ranch Civic Association Community Center and its meeting rooms can be reserved by contacting srcacc@scrippsranch.org. Some events are “tentative” and some may cancel so we encourage you to send us an email to confirm if there is date/time available for your event. Please do not contact any of our users, we will for you. To confirm your event we must receive a rental check, cash or money order and a separate security deposit (cancellation, damage and clean up expenses may result).

When providing the name of the facility to your guests, please refer to our facility as the “Scripps Ranch Civic Assciation Community Center” located at 11885 Cypress Canyon Road, San Diego, CA 92131.
