But for the last three visits, I was taken into a room 15-20 minutes late with no explanation. My appointment should take no more than 15-20 minutes. If I had not left 45 minutes later on my own, I don't know how long I would have sat in that room waiting for the PA. Today I had a 9:15 AM appointment. I waited 20 minutes after my appointment time to be put in a room finally at 9:35 AM, . Once in the room, I waited an additional 15 minutes for the doctor to come in. When Dr. Kaas came in, and she explained she was held up for personal reasons. I then waited for the PA to come in to finish the visit and she did not show up at all. I waited another 20 minutes and I decided to leave. I am 67 years old and have NEVER left a doctor's office in my life. I told the front desk why I left. Five minutes after leaving, I received a phone call from the PA who told me they were short staffed. She invited me to come in today at my convenience to complete the treatment, but I could not. I will not be returning to this practice. This all could have been avoided by a kind explanation at any point in time while I was in the office.

I found Dr. Ribeiro on Yelp so it's only fair that I pay it forward with a review. I've had flat…read morefeet my entire life, ankle problems since I broke it in the 6th grade, and arthritis in my foot about about 4 years now. All of that and I still can't stop playing basketball and running around outside like a big kid. Needless to say, I hurt on a pretty regular basis. I've been to other practitioners who usually just focus on one of my issues, leading to minimal relief because they're all pretty interrelated. Dr. Ribeiro is the first person to treat my pain and then offer exercises and orthotics for strength and support. She has a great bedside manner, listens, and is very analytical in her assessment. That's a rarity with the medical professionals in this area who have a habit of trying to rush appointments and get you out the door in 10 minutes or less (after you've waited in the lobby for 30!). My discomfort is noticeably less frequent so I wont be seeing her as much as I've seen other practitioners for my lower extremity issues but she is definitely my choice for foot & ankle care.

Three months of dealing with a nagging Achilles' tendon strain led me to reconnect with Dr…read more Ribeiro. The pain would start early in the morning, as soon as I hit the floor, then subside after about 2 hours. During the pain period, I would have to stretch the tendon then continue with my normal activities. I contacted the office and was able to get an early appt with no problem. Next, I downloaded and completed the new patient forms in advance to speed processing. Shortly after I arrived, Dr. Ribiero did a physical exam then captured 3 different X-rays and explained the images. Luckily, I had no bone spurs, calcification, etc. but thanks to the X-rays she did noticed a slight drop in one of my arches. She gave me a prescription for an anti inflammatory, a sheet with recommended Achilles stretches, and recommendations to her fave running stores to get sneakers and inserts to more adequately support my high arches. My strain and pain have improved substantially and it's only been 3 days. The good doctor believes this issue will completely go away as long as I'm careful and continue the course of treatment. I absolutely love Dr. Ribeiro's chair-side manner and her new contemporary office. If you have any foot or ankle issues, give her a try. She very thorough and cares about her patients!

I have gone to podiatrists over the years and my last one was on his way to retirement. Since I was…read morea young boy (I am over 40 now) my feet have had thick callouses and looked horrible. I asked my last doc about Lamisil and what I could do to clean up the mess on my feet; he did not recommend Lamisil so that was that. Then I found Dr. Osterman. He and his team have been fantastic. Every time I come for a visit, he would trim my nails and clean up my feet. They are true servant leaders. He prescribed Lamisil and within a few weeks my feet started to get better and now, they are perfect. I cannot thank Dr. Osterman enough for his kindness and great technical skills. He is a great doctor and excellent podiatrist. As a side note, I did lose my sense of taste (food, drink, salt and sweet) for about 6-7 weeks towards the end of taking Lamisil. This is a known side effect.

I've been seeing Dr. Smith for almost 9 months now - I had an acute episode with plantar fasciitis,…read moreand after tying to work through it with conventional, less invasive means (being in a walking boot, cortizone shots, and rehab/modified activity), nothing was helping and it was getting progressively worse with the nerve, so we had to go for the plantar nerve release surgery. Yes, she has a "GP" office and she is a surgeon, too, and is awesome at both of her jobs! She's really, really empathetic, wants to take the time to listen to you and your problems, and wants to help you (literally) get back on your feet as quickly and safely as possible. I miss her receptionist, Valerie, but the staff she has on hand (I believe Mary is the newbie- the younger lady who replaced her, and is sweetness, ice cream, blueberry pie, and puppies all wrapped up in one) are all really helpful. She is what a physician should be - caring towards her patients, explaining what is going on, amenable to seeing you quickly if you are having problems. THEY ACTUALLY RETURN PHONE CALLS THE SAME DAY/NEXT BUSINESS DAY. I SHOULDN'T BE SHOCKED BY THIS, BUT IN THE DC AREA, I AM. My surgery went well, and even the Inova staff working with her was awesome. After having been so disappointed with other physicians (especially specialists) in the DC area, Dr. Smith was just the bright, shining star I needed to encounter to restore my faith in physicians. I'm grateful to have found her (I even went for a second opinion on my foot, and there is NO comparison to how I was treated at Georgetown Hospital by the doctor vs. how Dr. Smith and her staff treated me.) She is right down the street from me, so I can easily access her by bus/car; I'd be afraid as to how full her office would be if she were more metro accessible! I'd never be able to see her due to her sheer awesomeness and influx of new patients! Honestly - great staff, great person, great doctor.

We kept looking for a splinter using a flashlight and magnifying glass, but couldn't see one. In desperation I called Nova Foot and Ankle and they fit me in the next morning. Apparently podiatrists remove splinters all the time. The doctor numbed my toe, made a small incision, and removed a small sliver of wood from my toe. I had a quick follow up 2 weeks later to make sure everything was healing well (it was). I would highly recommend this office! They're friendly, prompt, and helpful.
