I wish I could go visit him everyday, not with feet problems but just to say hi. He treated me for plantar fascitis with x-rays, exam of my foot and then gave me arch supports for my shoes and a splint for my foot to sleep in or rest in while watching tv to keep my foot at a 90 degree angle. Doesn't hurt when I wake up in the morning anymore. Thanks Doc you're the best. I'd recommend him to anyone.

On the day of the appointment an assistant took me into an examination room, and smothered all 10 toes in paper towels soaked in 3-WEA, a skin softening solution. After soaking for 10-15 minutes, Dr. Kruger came in and removed callus tissue from my feet, examined the structure of my feet, and explained how my foot structure would affect my gait, etc. Dr. Kruger had no grave concerns regarding the prognosis of my feet, and I left very pleased with the meeting. It didn't hurt that I had $0 copay.

I think that I like The Foot Center. I went to the office in Colonial Heights to get a second…read moreopinion. The doctor that I saw was named John Swangim. I also took my father to see John. My father loved John who removed corns/calluses from his feet. He experienced immediate relief and could walk without limping. John also suggested a larger width shoe for my dad to wear, special compression socks and the need to wear footwear in the house and suggested certain brands of shoes for my dad to wear. John printed out checklist for the shoes as well as providing a written list of stores in the Richmond area that carry these particular shoes. I had an extremely hard time finding those shoes because my dad's feet are so small. Eventually, I found a pair that fit and my Dad is very pleased. I went to John because I thought I had plantar warts. John took great care of me as well suggesting things that I could do to alleviate the pain caused by these calluses and corns on my feet and confirmed that I did not have plantar warts. He also suggested that I try out laser treatments for 6 weeks to determine if this treatment would help with the overall health of my feet due to walking on concrete floors at work and arthritis in my feet. I misunderstood the purpose of the laser treatment, thinking that it was some type of procedure done with laser to remove the roots of the calluses in the ball of my feet to stop the pain when I walk. I found the bedside manner of the technician, Mary, to be rather brusque and defensive. She took issue with my questions, concerns and statements by accusing me of saying that she was unqualified to do her job and opened the door so that she would have witnesses concerning my negative behavior toward. Her manner caused me great stress and I ended up in tears. It was a very stressful time for me. Of course, after I began crying she changed her tune quickly. After I went for the second appointment, I decided not to go anymore. My chiropractor provides the same services and is extremely kind and caring, always ready to answer my questions outside of the box. I am very knowledgeable about my body, my issues and how I respond to pain. I always ask many questions. It seemed to me that Mary had a nice, memorized script to explain the procedure that she provided, giving little opportunity to talk and discuss my out of box situation. She seemed irritated that I would interrupt her presentation by chiming in with questions for clarification. I learned nothing new from her and unfortunately, did not feel comfortable to speak very much for fear of offending her again. She was not interested in learning about my medical history. She just wanted to say what she had to say. When she made suggestions for items to purchase and exercises to do that would help improve the health of my feet, I asked for a printout or list of items recommended for purchase as well as instructions for the exercises being suggested, explicitly stating that I would not remember the item names and needed instructions for the exercises and I would need to do my research as I am always open to new ideas. Mary did not provide the requested items. The experience was stressful and I felt very rushed. It is unfortunate that Mary is the only technician who provides this laser treatment for the three locations of The Foot Center so I will have no opportunity to meet and work with another person.

By late January they still had not come in so I called the office and was told they were delayed due to the holidays (Xmas). Fast forward another couple of weeks and I receive a bill in the mail for $400 for the orthotics that were supposed to be covered by insurance (and that I had still not received). When I called the office to enquire about it they were less than no help explaining why I was receiving this bill. They said insurance had denied the claim and that I was responsible for the bill. I called my insurance company and they told me the podiatrist's office had submitted an incorrect insurance code and they just needed to fix that and they will be covered. I called the office to let them know and was then told that my orthotics had never even got ordered in the first place! So that explains the two-month delay in receiving the orthotic inserts but certainly doesn't explain why I then received a $400 bill from them. I'd look elsewhere for treatment.
