    I'm honestly pretty shocked. I brought my 80 year old father who has been suffering from severe…read morehealth conditions that have made it difficult for him to consistently treat what has become horrible fungus on his toenails. We were seen by Dr. Tan and he made very little effort to get to know my dad before taking out clippers (which did not come from any kind of a sterile wrapper) and extremely aggressively chopping off big chunks of my dads toenails. My dad was repeatedly saying "ow" because Dr. Tan was hurting him and he made him bleed in both of his big toes even though he knew he's on blood thinners. No antiseptic, no topical pain meds, no warning that it would hurt. His home health nurse was shocked when she saw them. On top of that, he didn't make any effort to file or shape his toe nails (they're just basically clipped in big sharp chunks - see pictures) and essentially told us there's nothing can do to treat the fungus. So we drove an hour there from my dad's house just to have his nails hacked off and not be offered any real solutions (except a cream he said would probably not help) and leave in more pain than he arrived The whole experience was actually shocking and I felt terrible for my elderly dad - his toes are still hurting since yesterday.

    He overbooks appointments. The office staff is great. He is old school. I don't know if he has…read moregotten another doctor in the office or if it's just him. I didn't like the fact that he would call me sweetie. I left the practice over a year ago.

    If I could give this guy a BIG FAT ZERO, I totally would. Negative numbers should even be a choice!…read moreThis is the worst doctor I've ever met. I went in with plantar fasciitis pains/problems on 5/13/15. The entire time I was there was 50 minutes. The front counter was nice enough. But, nothing to write home about. I'd say an average mostly polite check in. The office was clean, I'll give them that. But, it all went downhill from there. Dr. Del Monte checked my foot, had me do some stretches, walking, and poked around. Of course my foot didn't hurt nearly as bad because I had stretched it well prior and well, Murphy's Law. I workout six days a week. He didn't like this. In fact, he told me I would see a lot more results in my life if I ate a vegan diet, and stopped my exercise. He went on to lecture me without stop (even when I tried to interrupt him to explain that I'm educated). My eight year old daughter giggled ENDLESSLY because she's a vegetarian and I have given her the same lecture he gave me several times - on where/how to get protein. He didn't once ask what I eat, or what I knew. She even tried to interrupt and did quietly say a few times that "Mom, you already tell me this all of the time." He ignored her as well. He actually said to me at one point "I've never been as big as you. But, you'll really benefit from a vegan diet." I lost 107 pounds eating right and exercising. He never gave me a chance to even tell my story though. He was too busy obsessing on vegan diets. His recommendations were to bike and do resistance exercises. He told me no squats, no lunges, no calf raises, no jumping, and no running. I've already been modifying these things for some time. He said at one point he didn't even want me walking. Later though, he said hiking on my Costa Rica trip would be just fine as long as I stuck to flat trails. Umm...? Oh, and he told me that most patients coming in just struggling from there daily lives and no exercise. I took two months off in November when I had severely sprained an ankle. I didn't walk on that foot for at least four weeks. Couldn't. Now even my left foot is hurting. It wasn't used (even for exercise for two months). I found him to be completely unprofessionally, rude, and very unhelpful. I not only wasted my time but left in tears. He left me flabbergasted and certain I won't ever be returning to his offices. I've heard of doctors like this but I had never met one until now. I also found out after leaving that a friend of mine once went to him and in the first appointment also decided the same - she would never be returning.

    From the owner: Our practice is dedicated to providing quality foot and ankle care to all our patients in a caring…read moreand open environment.
