Dr. Roith came across as a very experienced and calm doctor who genuinely cares about all his patients with an great, caring, and a little jovial bedside manner. I went to my appointment with the thought of removing the toenail, as per all the previous doctors I had shown it to - NP, PCP and even Dermatologists and he made me feel at ease and told me not to worry, and that we will work on it with his treatment (so practical and easy to follow) to eradicate the issue. I left the appointment feeling confident and worry free. The staff was very sweet and guided me well. The clinic was clean and organized. Highly recommended!

Dr. Roith is phenomenal. I started dealing with chronic foot pain in middle school and after six…read moreyears of wearing custom insoles and orthopedic shoes, I eventually became unable to participate in sports or walk any long distance without significant foot pain. I went to my primary care physician and another podiatrist and received unsatisfactory recommendations. I was then referred to Dr. Roith and immediately appreciated the way he looked for and addressed the "root cause" of my foot pain and developed a surgical plan accordingly, as a final resort. That foot surgery was nothing short of life-changing. Now in my twenties, I am living a very active, pain-free life, and am able to do all things I missed out on as a teenager due to foot pain. So grateful for Dr. Roith and this practice!

Dr Bembynista ROCKS!! I've got to tell you, I'm in the medical profession and I've heard people…read moresinging his praises for 2 decades. I previously had an orthopedist who specializes in feet do bunion and hammertoe surgery for me. Every step was excruciating for 6 weeks. He didn't tell me I would have metal rods coming out of my hammertoes for 2-3 weeks, or that it would cause screaming pain when he pulled them out. I certainly had no contact with him except for one office follow up. His personality was very rigid. I asked him if he trained in the Army, he said "no". I have terrible feet (thanks mom!) and put off another surgery for over 10 years due to this horrid experience. I decided to see Dr B because I'd heard only accolades. I was so surprised to see how personable a surgeon could be!! It is rare, especially in this day and age. He took care of two ingrown toenails in the office, on the spot! Heavenly!! He explained everything about what my options were, drawing pictures on my feet and answering all my questions. I felt at ease and confident about proceeding right away. He operated on my hideous and painful bunion, a little toe bunion deformity and a disgusting hammertoe. No prong this time sticking out for torture, but a dissolvable pin!! He gave me several methods to contact him, which shocked me because usually surgeons do the procedure and as little followup as possible as they only can bill once for everything. I thought perhaps I was getting special treatment. He said "I do this for all my surgery patients". I've got to tell you, that is SHOCKING!! Dr B is an extremely skilled surgeon (the whole thing took 50 mins) and I had NO PAIN for 3 days, then only mild-moderate pain when stepping on the for 2 weeks. I only took 15 pain pills, and I"m a wimp. Even more important to me, he is a real mensch! He is easy to talk to, funny, caring and doesn't have the typical surgeon ego and mentality. I told his staff how lucky they were to work with a doctor like him. I asked it he was always nice and funny and they said "absolutely" He is my lifelong, go-to foot surgeon for the rest of this gal's life!! My dogs are no longer barking!! As far as the comments are about the office being less than stellar, who cares? He has several offices and a huge overhead. He pays his staff well. He spends time with patients. This all costs money. I can do without flat screen TVs, aquariums and marble floors. It's not like he's doing any major surgery there. Just my opinion...

I went to Dr. Bembynista for bunions. I ended up with 4 surgeries in 6 months. I have had 2…read morebunionectomies, a tenotomy & and osteotomy. Due to his pleasant disposition & sense of humor, I stayed with him through all 4 surgeries but was not given the necessary information for good follow up care to lead to success from the surgeries. His office visits were generally overbooked & or visits were cut short. This lead to more visits every week for awhile & uncertain feelings about how to take care of my feet. Now, nearly a year later, another Dr. is giving me the necessary information to continue caring for my feet. I am doing my best to recovery still in a much longer timeframe than Dr. Bembynista advised me of & am disappointed in the overall outcome of the surgeries.

GRAU SPECIFICALLY, dialoged with receptionist how my parent had been a patient and I respected him, etc. The receptionist tells me 'no problem', and takes ALL my PERSONAL INFO!!! Somehow she hangs up on me (panicked about being deceptive?!?) and I call back and tell 2nd receptionist I wanted an appointment with DR. GRAU. She proceeds to set me up, makes my appointment and as I confirm, "10:45 with Dr. Grau, correct?" "Ummmmm.... no he's no longer with FSKC". What a run-around!!! Now if they had been upfront at the get go (both receptionists had the opportunity), and said Grau had left, but the "new Doctor is stellar, everyone raves, etc." I would have proceeded, I am a new patient looking for a local podiatrist. But sheesh, the level of deception, being hung up on, not called back immediately (they had my phone number), and then NOT TOLD- as if I wasn't requesting a specific Doctor. That's called lying. UNPROFESSIONAL and DISRESPECTFUL. Watch out!

Dr. Laha assured me that he could repair the damage and before surgery he explained in detail what he was going to do. The first surgeon messed up so badly that it took two surgeries (due to hidden damage) to undo all of the damage, but thanks to Dr. Laha I can walk again without pain. Several years after foot surgery I badly tore ligaments in the ankle on the other side, which again made walking painful. Dr. Laha sewed the ligaments back together. Understandably it took some time to fully recover, but recover I did. I have full strength and range of motion in that ankle. It is as if I never tore the ligaments. Many surgeons can do routine procedures. Dr. Laha makes the nearly impossible seem easy.
