Dr Odmark is an Orthopedic Foot Surgeon here. He is highly incompetent! Do not use him! He ruined my foot in an attempt to grift my Medicare. I saw him for a hammertoe on my L second left toe. He never fixed it!! He decided to rearrange my toes because he did not like the spacing between a couple of them even though they matched my other foot perfectly. He inserted a rod into my big toe and turned it inward to close a space between that and the hammertoe, then he moved the hammertoe closer to my third toe so closely that I can barely get a washcloth in there. He left my metatarsal bulging on the top surface of my foot and in doing so, a pocket formed under it that filled with puss that had to be cleaned out throughout the healing process. Then he put me on antibiotics because I was in great pain even though I have profound Peripheral Neuropathy (no Diabetes here) and proceeded to prescribe only 7 days at a time. The pain came back full force at the end of each stint because 7 days was not enough. I had to beg him to leave me on it for a longer period before it was finally cleared up. And AFTER ALL THIS, my hammertoe was NEVER FIXED because enough of the bone was eaten away by infection. He left me a HUGE Medicare bill which they paid thankfully, but he caused me great pain and anguish, I missed a planned visit to one of my sons prearranged in great detail, and now the hammertoe can NEVER BE FIXED because it was eaten away by infection and is now very reduced in size. read more
