Dr. Levine was our go-to podiatrist for many years. Until our recent visit, he's been capable and…read morewarm--the doctor you hope you'll encounter when you have a problem. But our opinion of him has changed. Recently, we saw Dr. Levine to discuss some joint pain my wife was having. Dr. Levine said she had three options, in this order: 1) Surgery 2) An injection (I'm assuming cortisone) 3) Or wearing special shoes that would hopefully provide relief. We chose to try the shoes before surgery or a "shot." Dr. Levine told us to go to a shoe store called Shoe Fly in Frederick, MD, and buy a brand of "Hoka" walking shoes. I asked if the shoes were also sold on Amazon. Dr. Levine suddenly said, "Full disclosure: I have an ownership interest in Shoe Fly." Hmmm...wasn't that something he should have told us earlier? When I asked him that a couple of weeks later, he agreed, that was something that ethically he should have mentioned. So, a once very good doctor has apparently decided that being forthright about his "double dipping" from his patients is perfectly fine. It's not. People have a right to know that he profits from his patients' purchases made at that store. That way, they'll be more inclined to shop around for the best price. That's just common sense. Aside from this, my wife felt the overall treatment Dr. Levine provided wasn't satisfactory. She left in as much pain as she was in when she arrived, with instructions to buy expensive shoes at a store he owns to an extent (it must be a large extent, because he said his picture hangs on the wall). Our experience shows what may happen when doctors "operate" in their own little world, expecting that as doctors their patients will unquestionably follow their advice, as after all, they're the doctor. Sorry, it's a different world. People have more options. And they are better informed now thanks to the Internet (assuming they've visited reputable sites such as the Mayo Clinics' or Johns Hopkins', or the Cleveland Clinics'). And they may no longer blindly follow their doctors' advice without asking some questions. Our acupuncturist told us at our first appointment that: "You must be your own doctor." You have the right and responsibility to question a doctor about anything you don't understand, or whatever treatment options you may have. It's your health after all, and no one is more interested in that than you.

I agreed to foot/ankle surgery but after a week of waiting for the surgery to be scheduled I received a call from their surgery coordinator informing me that Mr. Fifelski was not registered with my insurance and that they would find a doctor in their practice that could handle my surgery. I waited a few days for them to get in touch with me and no one reached out and to this day I not heard another a thing from frederick foot and ankle. Luckily I had experience with Advance orthopedics in Germantown and I was able to see them and have Dr. Feldman take care of my issue.

I thought I tore my Achilles Tendon and needed to see a foot doctor asap…read more I called several locations, but they couldn't see me in less than 6 weeks. I then found the Foot and Ankle Specialist of the Mid-Atlantic, located in Mount Airy, MD and found that there were no appointments available in their Mt Airy office, but I could be seen the next day in their Frederick office, which I was happy about. I already had an x-ray done after seeing my Primary Care Doctor and went for my visit, where I found I had bone spurs in my heel, causing the tendinitis. Dr Bell was super explanatory and what she talked about from trying PT 1st and that surgery would be a last resort, which all made complete sense and learning my Achilles wasn't torn was encouraging. Unbelievably the PT actually worked very well and the Achilles Tendonitis isn't debilitating as it was and I'm back to playing softball at 59 years old.
