Had my appointment cancelled after they reviewed my case from a previous doctor because they can't do anything more advanced than the over the counter orthotic that I had already gotten. Not sure what they can actually do for anyone if they can't even beat an over the counter orthotic.

My husband has been a patient for the last few years, and although they've been the hardest years of our lives the care and compassion we've encountered here are outstanding. He's had so many surgeries and all have been great, they've been able to save him from any complications and ALWAYS put us at ease with kindness and efficiency. Definitely 5 stars!
