If the doctor is incapable of handling my procedure from the 1st time, that should be owned by you, not the patient, who suffered going through the same procedure 3 times, and now being billed 3 times plus multiple followups. I wish it ended here, as I learned that the doctor ordered a lab work without the patient (my wife) consent to an Out of Network Lab, costing (~ $1680) more than the bill for the whole treatment. How is this professionally acceptable. I am consulting now with a lawyer to take this to a small claim court.

It was kind of scary but this place is the place to go for your foot problems. It looks a rough around here. But this place is great! The lady at the front desk has great sense of humor! You will definitely get a good laugh. And the foot doctor is very professional and has very gentle hands. I was all afraid over nothing. I wished that I could remember how well he treated my husband! Ding ! My brain remember and I was glad it did ! I highly recommend this business! My toe is not hurting!

I just was released today after repair on my ankle and foot. Dr. Lo was very nice, has, and it was…read moreobvious that he has excellent in skills. When I came to see him I was in severe pain, now I have no pain when I walk on my ankle and foot. I could go on and on, but I am so thankful to have this 7 month ordeal over. I just wish I had found him and his office sooner. One last thing, Dr. Lo is not connected to the two large medical entities in town. Because of this he is able to take his time and answer more than just three questions per visit. That is definitely a huge plus.

I saw Dr. Lo earlier in 2024 and ended up getting orthotics. He's really personable and…read moreknowledgeable and I would recommend him, hence the five stars. Oh, and yes - no plantar fasciitis anymore. That said, I wish I could give a separate rating for the admin staff - they almost never answer the phone and you have to leave a message. Leaving a message does not guarantee that you will get a call back the same day (even if calling mid-day w/in their working hours), or the following day, or the day after that. I was reminded of this as I'm trying to get an old insurance issue taken care of and just want them to reply to me. I cannot give a doctor a low rating if they are doing a great job - too many people write negative reviews for the wrong reasons - but again, super frustrating to not have an office staff that responds promptly, or even answers the phone at all.

I was referred to this medical establishment by a kind doctor at the Franciscan urgent care. If I…read morecould rate the podiatry experience it is a zero star, that is exactly what I would give it. I do not recommend this place to anyone who is having trouble with their feet. If you are diabetic or just struggle with feet issues, my dear people, please go to another place. I was referred for an ingrown toe nail that needed corrected to avoid further issues later. I was recommended to prevent any further problems with my feet. I did what I could to nurse my foot but it still hurts and that is not normal. I do have diabetes and I worry about this stuff. The urgent care doctor did not recommend a X-Ray and made it crystal clear that it was not necessary. If it was necessary, he would have done it at the urgent care. So with that said ,Dr Mayer unfortunately did not exhibit professionalism and showed anyway that she cared about my foot. She wanted to quickly tell me what to do instead of listening to me. I did get a bit frustrated and did not want to waste time listening to a menu of options when I already knew from previous professional what was needed. Yes, no thank you madam. She wanted to be heard too but over talking me was not going to get her heard. I am the patient and I will make it clear with all doctors. If I feel coerced or disrespected, or even my problems dismissed I will walk away from any visit. Please stop playing the victim card on patients! I do not deal well with that characteristic. If she was a great doctor, I am not convinced that day with how she treated me. She needs to learn to get her priorities in order and understand all patients are different. She accused me of being hostile and even aggressive in a patient report. I just think it is fair to say that she may have had some aggressive patients in past experiences maybe in her short time and get a bit confused with those patients now when she receives a patient like me. My husband and son came to this appointment and they did not witness me being hostile or aggressive. They have seen me mad before but I do not act in violence. Emotions are ok and justified as long as no harm is done. I'm disabled and short stature and cannot do much. With my voice I do empower and advocate for myself in healthcare. This is my body and I will speak up and hope others will. I do not have any intention to hurt or harm anyone but hey you will not mistreat me in any shape or form either! I have totally lost my desire to step foot in any Franciscan or Virginia Mason brand of medical until I see that they put better priorities on patients. The podiatrist in this office totally was not understanding and treated me underneath her and less of a human. Honestly if I own a beloved dog or cat. I love animals like cute little babies. Honey, sweet heart or sugar dumplings, I would not send my animals there. Yelpers there are other options. I am deeply concerned about other patients going there. Also, I want to add that these people who work together at Virginia Mason/Franciscan will stand and uphold one another even if that individual is wrong. I did complain but that was a waste of time. I did call my family doctor and quickly got another referral somewhere else. My referral was a podiatrist that my husband has seen. My family doctor even offered to see me in if the new podiatrist could not get me in. But I am going next week. I know this podiatrist so I am going to be fine. I now have to be concerned in the back of my mind if my health will be taken as seriously as I take it. This experience is kind of traumatic and I am concerned about other people these days too. But as a community we are strong and better days will come. Please stand up for health and do not be coerced into things or allow others to overtalk you. It does not matter their credentials It is subtle abuse. I recommend taking a spouse, family or friend to doctor appointments. Again look at options yourself.

I asked about burning off or cutting out because he did not mention any other options. He said he could burn it off but I'd have to come back several times. I said okay. I was then forgotten for awhile waiting on the prescription. An hour later I went to go to the compound pharmacist to pick up the prescription and they told me it would be $180! I have great insurance by the way but at a compound pharmacy you pay and hope your insurance will reimburse. I would have driven to him a few times to burn them off at that price! Bottom line he wasn't helpful. Being forgotten was an annoyance. The lack of information was upsetting.
