Day 3 without pain meds or antibiotics.

After spending about 3 minutes with Dr. Wilkes at my initial consultation I was told that I needed a joint replacement in my right foot. I was trusting and agreed to the surgery. Two days before the surgery I received a message that a script for pain meds and antibiotics had been submitted to a pharmacy that I had never used in the past. And I had never used this pharmacy because they didn't accept my insurance. I contacted the office multiple times and was told the mistake would be corrected. Since the script had not been properly submitted by the day of the surgery I mentioned it again, both to the OR prep nurse and Dr Wilkes. I was assured the meds would be available post op. But they were not. Since the surgery was on a Friday (don't ever have surgery on a Friday) I was forced to go the weekend without meds. On Monday I contacted the office 3 times and was told the messages would be relayed to Dr. Wilkes. But Monday evening the pain had become so bad that I required a trip to Sutter Roseville ER. (See attached pic) The ER provider submitted the script for pain meds and antibiotics immediately. After a couple of months post op and still experiencing intense pain in my right foot I question Dr. Wilkes as to the surgical procedure that he had performed. He assured me the "joint replacement" had been successful and that it would take a few more months before I would have any relief. After seeing Dr Wilkes multiple times and getting the same explanation re. the surgery I decided to see a different podiatrist. Upon the first visit this new podiatrist scheduled an MRI of my right foot. Long story short, the MRI did not show that the joint had been replaced. The doctor mentioned that she was unable to determine what had been done during the surgery by Dr. Wilkes. She also mentioned that the joint was "destroyed" and that a second surgery would be required to fuse what was left of the joint in question. There are other negatives associated with my treatment from Dr. Wilkes but I'll skip over those to keep this review as brief as possible. If you're considering surgery with Dr. Craig Wilkes I would definitely advise to seek a second opinion.

Dr Wilkes better than the good feet store

This is my second visit here, this clinic has a kind , friendly and welcoming staff. This clinic is in a building with other small clinics. Dr. Manson is understanding kind and friendly. Their appointments are not too far out and get what you need in a good timely manner. Also, I'm totally not doing a 5 star review for the Starbucks card.... that's just a plus . Definately recommend this clinic.

Office bribe for good reviews

This office bribes people for 5 star reviews--take the positive comments with a grain of salt. I visited the office because I didn't know many reviews could have been bought. Bad experience-- sloppy, unprofessional, unhelpful. I've since found a thoughtful & helpful podiatrist in San Francisco, luckily.

Amazing, life altering , healing of plantar fasciitis. Struggled for months and sometimes years with traditional therapy( ice, exercises, rest) and it would take months to get rid of the pain. Only a few treatments with MLS LASER AND IT NEVER CAME BACK! Try and see. All the best Doctors and staff in Rocklin office.

Great doctor, kind and knowledgeable staff!…read more We Ordered orthotics and bought a pair of quality shoes! Our feet are VERY important! If we maintain our feet health including our toe nails, exercise and pay attention to our balance and how we walk we will be happy And safe longer! Dr. Shoemaker is guiding us in our quest for healthy feet!

Dr. Shoemaker's office does not respond to voicemails nor emails (listed email on voice message…read morerespond is blocked). Excessive pre-payments and unresponsive for reimbursement. I am now reading reviews on yelp and google of other people's experience and seeing that excessive overbilling is common with this office. Visited Apr 16th for broken toe, they charged $500 (receipt) and said they would bill insurance then reimburse. Received a bill for another $114 which claims I have not paid $0 for services rendered after my insurance was applied. When you call the office, forwards to voicemail during business hours and to email pace5@surewest.com, if you send them email, it is blocked by google. I was told after they collect $500 as a prepayment they would process my insurance claim within the next two business days and reimburse me. It is now June and I am receiving a bill for services that I nearly paid 5x over out of pocket and they are unresponsive. Dr. Shoemaker also recommended surgery within 2 days of my visit at the outpatient center in roseville, but the surgery was cancelled due to the fact his office would not disclose the surgeon or pathology fees, requiring that I would cover the surgery in full. Even though my insurance provider is in network and they put in the claim for the appointment I did attend over a month a half later, after collecting cash payment from me 5x the anticipated cost. He told me he is selling the practice, understandably his staff may be busier than usual, but it is unethical to collect excessive payments and become unresponsive when reimbursement is due.
