I rarely write reviews but have been so pleased with the excellent treatment that Dr. Lee…read moreFirestone has provided that I am motivated to share my outstanding experiences with others. I initially saw him for orthotics. Dr Firestone was tireless in making sure that the orthotics were exactly right and called the manufacturer numerous times to have them modified until they were right for my foot. I also saw him for a painful toe. His treatment quickly and gently resolved the problem. Most recently a neuroma was causing pain and hindering my ability to take the long walks that I love. After carefully examining my foot and my orthotic Dr Firestone felt that a modification to my orthotic would help resolve the problem. Dr Firestone personally sent a picture to the orthotic manufacturer detailing exactly what he wanted done. He will contact me when they are ready. I know from my previous experience with him that he will not be satisfied until " he makes it right for me." Dr Firestone' s expertise, empathy and tireless pursuit of finding the best treatment for my foot problems has earned my kudos and deepest thanks!

This is honestly the best experience I could have ever wanted as far as a podiatrist is concerned…read more Dr. Nwujo has excellent bedside manner, he's extremely thorough in his work and has provided excellent care for my feet. I had to get a bunionectomy surgery. There were several appointments leading up to the procedure. Each time, an analysis was performed and I was provided details on what the cause of my pains were and his recommendations on how to solve it. The receptionist was always kind and professional. Even the operating team in the hospital had perfect customer service. I am grateful beyond words that my pain was able to be resolved. He also provided post-op laser procedures twice a week to expedite the healing! 10 stars Out of 5 because everything was just the absolute best!

The biggest downside is that they don't accept insurance. You can try to get reimbursed by your insurance after the fact but that didn't work for me (and I have pretty good insurance--Blue Cross PPO). I had to discontinue care because I just couldn't commit to the out of pocket costs when there are other doctors in the area who do accept a range of insurance plans (in fact this is the only doctor I've visited in the DMV that won't take my insurance). Would love to return and hope they change their policy!

It's hard to wrangle answers basic billing and insurance questions. All in all, a solid choice that comes with flaws.

She put me on hold for 5 min., came back and said they weren't there, so I asked for their email, and after another 5 min. on hold, I was told they "aren't allowed to give out practice manager's business email." That's 20 min. I'm never getting back and the worst medical office administration I have experienced in the DMV. Go somewhere else, the front of the house patient care says a lot.

It was a ten minute walk from the bus stop to my apartment even though I used to be the guy who could walk from Tenleytown to the National Mall until I met Dr. Morse. Keep in mind that this is almost a year after I had the botched surgery, so the Foxhall front desk staff can continue to give me all the dirty looks they want when I run into them on the metro, but they have no right to judge me until they have walked in my shoes because that's something I can't even do a year later

While this man might be a capable doctor, his business practices are extremely suspicious and…read moredisheartening. My intention when I first went to see Dr. Carter was just to receive an examination of my foot bones; however, he somehow talked me in to getting fitted for $500 shoe inserts and $200 rubber toe bumper guards in the first 10 minutes of the appointment. (This is probably my fault; I am bad at saying "no".) I managed to decline the toe bumper guards, since I knew I would never wear them, but decided to accept the cost of the $500 shoe inserts. While checking out, he then proceeded to bill me for the cost of my appointment in full ($200), instead of my traditional $10 copay, despite the fact that he takes my health insurance. He assured me that he would "forward my health insurance reimbursement to me" when he received it. Shady. Several weeks later, a check for $88 appeared in my mailbox; it was a personal check, handwritten by the doctor. Nothing else was in the envelope; there was no note, no receipt, nothing. I called his office and asked for some paperwork; I wanted him to prove that out of my $200 out-of-pocket appointment, my only reimbursement was $88. Several days later, I received another envelope in the mail from him, that contained an invoice he had handwritten. It just said "Patient owed $88 from health care company". Again, no official paperwork, only his own handwriting. My healthcare company however did send me official paperwork, saying that my total reimbursement should have been over $150, not a mere $88. I photocopied all this paperwork and mailed it back to Dr. Carver, asking him to please explain and to please reimburse me in full. That was over a month ago. Predictably, no response. Dr. Carver, you owe me some money.

He put staples and screws in my foot, which I never knew until months later. I never saw any x-rays during the whole process. The surgery he did is so bad that my foot has been swollen for 9 months and is not healing properly. There is a second bunion on my small toe that he never took care of as well. This is almost one year and I will have to go through the whole process again, painful surgery, and off my foot for 4-6 weeks. I found him very pompous & cavalier, caring more for his ego than the recovery of the patient!

So he decided to send me for an MRI only to find out I did not have tendinitis after all, but rather a stress fracture which I had most probably made worse by "continuing to do what I was doing". I ended up with a boot for 4 weeks after which I scheduled a follow up MRI for myself!
