I called the clinic this morning and asked if they took "walk-in" patients, pardon the pun . They…read moresqueezed me in after I had explained that I had had an accident and my foot was badly swollen.
I have nothing but praise for not only Dr.David Gent, but his staff were amazing too. They treated me with THEE upmost kindness and respect. I was born with "bad " feet, and have had so many problems because of them. My feet are , well, not pretty and I have always been embarrassed to show them. This Doctor, and his wonderful staff made me feel so comfortable and " not embarrassed " , that I could actually cry. I know, sounds stupid, but, believe me, it is a big deal to me. I even joked if I brought nail polish, would they polish my nails for me
Anyway, they took great care of me, did X-Rays right there and I didn't have to wait for hours upon hours for the results!
He explained to me, while showing me my x-ray, what was going on. A first, from past experiences.
I , don't remember the technical terms, but my tendons were strained, or sprained, I don't remember, but, he gave me a shot right at the damage, wrapped my foot , gently I may add, then put a "soft cast" on it . Bonus was, it is Seahawk Colours ! Lol
Any way, I go back next week, and we will see what is what.
I ABSOLUTELY recommend this practice to anyone with any foot injuries... and judging by the people I saw leaving there while I was waiting to be seen, well, they are doing something right !
