I read some of the reviews for Ga Foot and ankle. they appear to be good…read more However, let me discuss my experience. I had a foot injury that took me to urgent care of Savannah one Saturday morning. I received treatment with instruction's to follow up with the referral. urgent care called me the following Tuesaday with a referral to Ga foot and ankle, I was advised they are suppose to call and schedule. I was also advised that they typically forget to call, so I was encouraged to call them. they did not call all week, so I called and made an appt for the following Thursday. I called that Thursday morning to confirm, they had no record of me and no appt. I spent about 25 minutes between urgent care and ga foot, finally asking to make a new appt. the person reluctantly took some info. including insurance info. At which point she advised my blue cross blue shield did not cover podiatry? I looked up my coverage thru blue connect and called blue cross. ga foot and ankle came up first as an in network provider? needless to say, I made an appt for my fractured foot with another podiatrist office. so in conclusion, the worst service ever, and I was never even seen!

Both my wife and I have gone here 2 or 3 times. Dr. Valbueno is quick, efficient but will take…read moretime to answer all questions and concerns. We are both on a 2-3 month re-check for some foot issues. Would recommend this office without hesitation.

Review for Dr. Newsome and Atlantic Foot & Ankle Specialists…read more In May, while I was a patient at St. Joseph's Hospital, I found myself in need of having a couple of toes amputated. It was a frightening and emotional experience, but Dr. Newsome's exceptional care made all the difference. He treated me as a whole person, not just a foot, and that compassion made this journey much easier to get through. Dr. Newsome is incredibly communicative and takes the time to explain everything -- what's happening, why, and how to stay healthy moving forward. His professionalism and empathy truly stand out. I also want to recognize Sharon, the nurse in the office, who is kind, caring, and always greets you with a warm smile. She makes every visit comfortable and reassuring, and her gentle touch when changing dressings really puts you at ease. I can't recommend Dr. Newsome and Atlantic Foot & Ankle Specialists enough. They've provided not only top-notch medical care but also genuine compassion and encouragement through my healing process.

I saw Todd Newsome for mild foot pain on 9/4, followed by a second visit on 9/12. He taped my foot…read moreand told me my pain was likely from soft tissue injury or damage, though no formal diagnosis was provided. At the follow-up visit, he recommended a cortisone injection. He did not explain any potential risks or side effects, nor did he conduct any imaging (e.g., ultrasound) to try to provide any more information. There was no mention of serious possible complications like tendon or nerve damage, tissue necrosis, etc. Trusting his judgment, I agreed to the injection. I definitely would not have consented had I been properly informed since the potential risks strongly outweighed my minor pain, level 2. Within a week, despite rest and icing, my pain significantly worsened, more than at any point before treatment. I contacted the office and received a call back from Todd Newsome on 9/19 after office hours. During our conversation, I mentioned that I had felt something "pop" during the injection and asked whether a tendon or bone might have been affected. His response was unprofessional and hostile, he accused me of lying and "trying to turn this around on him," and shouting that I had come in with "extreme chronic pain" which was clearly not true. My attached medical record shows this. At no point during this call did he show any concern regarding the outcome of his treatment or ask any follow-up questions about what symptoms I was experiencing to rule out infection or provide help. When I pointed out that I never reported having extreme chronic pain and that his reaction was very defensive, he told me to seek care elsewhere. I have since seen another provider at Ortho Pooler, who was far more thorough. They confirmed that a cortisone shot was not appropriate treatment for my level of pain and should be reserved for severe cases of pain levels 8 or higher. The experience here has left me in worse condition than before seeking treatment and raises serious concerns about the level of professionalism and patient care provided by Dr. Todd Newsome.
