    Recently, my spouse's (Grace) right foot had swollen and was very painful. Our GP was not able to…read moreprovide the necessary help, so I started researching like crazy for a podiatrist. I feel like we won the lottery when finding Dr Jaramillo! I called the main number and Katrina scheduled an appointment, thankfully, in just a few days. The first appointment was at the Davenport office. It is really convenient from the west side of Orlando. Dana checked us in and within about 15 minutes we were back in a treatment room. The awesome Wendy arrived shortly thereafter. She is extremely efficient and knowledgeable. Wendy took the x-rays and did some digital imaging of Grace's feet. The technology was quite fascinating. Wendy listened patiently as Grace described all of her challenges with her right foot. We are so grateful for Wendy's help. She is an extremely knowledgeable nurse and has a fun, helpful personality! Dr. Jaramillo came in a few minutes later and explained everything she had found so far. The best part... she truly listened and went the extra mile to run a bone scan. (We found out last week that the bone scan shows a stress fracture. That explains a lot of issues over the years.) Dr Jaramillo really takes the time to listen to patients. She has excellent bedside manner combined with being exceptionally brilliant. We are so thankful for all the great people at Central Florida Foot and Ankle, but wow, Dr Jaramillo and Wendy are truly outstanding!

Two of the doctors said that my toe needed to be amputated, but after Dr. Maria reviewed my case, she told me about the PRP treatment options and that she should be able to save my toe and foot. Two of the doctors attempted to schedule me for amputation, and Dr. Maria stepped in to save my foot. After several PRP treatments, I'm happy to report that I'm no longer on a knee scooter, and my foot is doing great. I have a job where I'm on my feet from 8-14 hrs a day, and have no issues. I'm now a regular patient of Dr. Maria's, and just have routine wellness check ups. Had it not been for the care and skills of Dr. Maria, I would have lost my foot, and my job. I owe a big THANK YOU to Dr. Maria and her staff for the quality care I received during my treatments as well as my office visits. I highly recommend Dr. Maria Jaramillo to anyone looking for the best in foot care.

    I scheduled a visit with Dr. Wellens on a recommendation from a friend. I had been experiencing…read moreworsening pain in the first joint of my big toe for about two years, and it had become so stiff that I couldn't bend it. This problem had started to take a toll on my active lifestyle: I had begun to dread long runs, I couldn't surf the same, and my pickleball game had gone downhill. Mentally, I was trying to accept this condition as part of growing older. Right off the bat, Dr. Wellens made me feel very comfortable and confident in her expertise. She examined my toe with X-Ray images and an ultrasound machine, discovering lots of bone spurs in the joint. She called my condition "turf toe," and told me I had a few different options for treatment. The one she recommended was shock wave therapy on the affected joint, along with an amniotic stem cell injection directly into the joint. The main drawback to this treatment was that it would cost $4,000, and my insurance would not cover it. After some deliberation, I decided to go ahead with the expensive treatment. Let me tell you: BEST DECISION EVER. I came back the following week for the first of three shock wave therapy sessions, and the stem cell injection. Dr. Wellens gave me a lidocaine shot in the affected joint, and the nurse administered shock wave therapy, which took about 5 minutes. She told me the shock wave therapy on my toe would cause major inflammation, and that my body would then send its resources to heal the area. She said it would also break up some of the bone spurs, and my toe would continue to heal for about 6 weeks. Immediately after the stem cell injection and first shock wave session, I could bend my big toe again. It was unbelievable. The doctor told me to take it easy at first, but I felt like running and jumping for joy. My toe was fixed! I couldn't believe it. I went back to the office for my remaining two shock wave therapy sessions, and my toe continued to gain mobility each time. After another ultrasound examination, Dr. Wellens concluded that 80% of my bone spurs are gone. I have absolutely no pain in my toe joint now, and I can bend it as much as I can bend the other one. I can even stand on my tippy toes.... Something I never would have dreamed possible. I am so grateful for the treatment I received from Dr. Wellens and her staff.... It was without a doubt WORTH EVERY PENNY!

    I had a 3:30 pm appointment. I did not see the dr until 4:25. Dr advised that I have fungus under…read moremy toenail. How do you determine this on a toenail that is well manicured and polished? She just looked at my toe, and did not touch it or ask that I remove the nail polish to make a determination. SMH!!. At the end of the visit with the dr, an assistant appeared trying to sell me a toe fungus cream that I could only get at the Dr's office; really! In addition, suggesting treatment at $200.00 (not covered by insurance) that would not cure the problem, but will "make it feel better." Very disappointed; not returning there!

    I would not recommend Central Florida Foot and Ankle Center. Though they have performed several…read moreprevious surgeries on both of my Achilles, and other tendons, the results have not been as expected. Dr. Wellens performed a Tendoscopy on my left Achilles and perennial tendons, only to have to have another open surgery 12 months later because the surgery did not solve the issues. I still have pain following that surgery almost 1 1/2 years later. Do not get Amniox injections unless you have a few grand to throw away. They were not honest about what insurance would cover as I learned after. Their billing office is not great also. The last draw was when she said multiple times that I had a tear on my right Achilles following my MRI. I decided to go to another surgeon at LRMC for a second opinion. THERE WAS NO TEAR. I will not be going back. Unfortunately I should have done this a decade ago when I started going to them.

    I would NOT recommend this podiatrist office. I made the mistake of not reading the online reviews…read morewhich are 85% negative. I provided them with my private insurance and they stated that the medications, treatments and ultrasound were not covered. Eventhough, they are in network and I have great insurance coverage. Needless to say, I paid upfront and their office billed my insurance for the ultrasound. I am now submitting all my receipts for reimbursement and questioning the treatment plan while looking for a new podiatrist. They are a money making business. BEWARE!

Not one actually took the time to see what was the true cause. I then found Dr Wellens and her staff of loving, caring, understanding and enthusiastic genuine customer service. I will tell you, she is awesome! I am grateful for also the shoe clinic with Steve! He is great, not just a salesmen, he actually took the time to find out what my needs are and honed in on just that! Since then I have been checking in with Dr Wellens and my heels are starting to reduce in pain. Thank you guys, I am a chef and to have found you guys means everything for my career. God Bless you all thank you!!
