I was with my aunt who had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Carter. Man oh man was he an excellent provider. He took his time explaining everything to her and she did not feel rushed once. Even though her English isn’t the best, he made sure she understood everything. He removed an ingrown and to this day she’s very pleased with the pain relief and results. I would definitely recommend them!!

My toddler enjoyed her experience and I know she will be cooperative because her podiatrist told her he will help her with "Gotta go fast! Like Sonic!" What more can a father ask for?

Easy to schedule same day appointments. The staff was very nice and welcoming. I was seen by Dr. Eric Freiler with minimal wait time and he was probably one of the best doctors I have ever seen – he seems to genuinely care and explained everything perfectly. I came in for foot pain and he took the time to really evaluate what was going on and offer potential solutions/outcomes – he’s super smart and I trust all of his responses to my concerns.
