Mixed Reviews on Podiatry Services
Dissatisfaction with Care and Personal Experience
Some reviewers, like Ann Howard, expressed their disappointment with the level of care they received, feeling disrespected, and regretting wasting their time. Similarly, David's review warned others to beware of the podiatrists, accusing them of practicing "evil podiatry" and taking advantage of older patients.
Billing and Insurance Issues
Joan Conway's review highlighted concerns with billing and insurance. She mentioned that the firm was listed as in-network, but the podiatrist was out-of-network, resulting in a significant price difference. She also had issues with the billing process and receiving incorrect information on her Medicare Summary Notice.

On the other hand, some reviewers had positive experiences with specific podiatrists. Jeffrey Berman praised Dr. Hoffmann for her knowledge, clear explanations, and compassionate bedside manner.
