Patient Reviews
Sep 04, 2020
Very attentive to my needs, took the time to explain everything include diagnosis, treatment options, and special recommendations after my procedure. Has a very kind, calm, and easygoing bedside manner, relates very well with patients and has excellent communication skills. Everything was exactly as described, explained well without any confusion. Entire medical office is also friendly and accommodating. Excellent Covid-19 precautions here in place at this office, plus they support social justice causes - like for example with everything that had been going on earlier this year back in May and June. Practice keeps abreast of everything going on, including latest developments and research in podiatrical treatment. Plus Ben Cullen is quite 'easy on the eyes' too... lol. All jokes aside, this is a very well operated medical practice with caring staff who are knowledgeable and highly skilled/qualified.
