He was nice enough, he gave me an X-Ray right on the spot and seemed to be very knowledgable about my condition.
Dr. Adams was great and personable, he quickly treated my problem and brought me to ease with next steps. Definitely recommend.
I waited for 45 minutes to see Dr. Adams for 5 minutes (to be clear, I don’t personally fault him for the long wait). He looked at my stance for only 5 seconds and made an unprofessional, judgmental remark (shook his head and muttered "you should never have let [condition on feet] get this bad"). I would urge other patients to seek a more attentive and professional podiatrist.
Found the doctor via Zocdoc and was able to get an appointment later the same day. Dr. Adams is a patient listener and a good explainer. Only my first visit but, so far, so good. Overall, a pleasant experience.

Dr Adams was very communicative with explaining to me what would be best as it related to the concerns with me feet. He was transparent with why he wouldn’t recommend a procedure which I felt was necessary and helpful. Overall the office visit was fast and went well.
Verified patient
The doctor was kind. He had good bedside manner and truly sat there while I contemplated if I would get the procedure done. He didn’t seem frustrated or annoyed. Very calm. The office on the other had was too chaotic. Not well organized, and as soon as I sat (three times) she called me back up with additional task. You’re basically screaming so they can hear you through the glass divider.
Verified patient

My appointment with Dr. Adams went well. He sent me for x-rays and diagnosed my foot problem quickly. the nurses work in the office were very nice and professional too.
Dr Adams was wonderful!
Verified patient
Wait time approx. 45 mins +. Concern,: painful corns on little toe. Assistants were very friendly, talkative and apologetic about the wait ( they mentioned concerns about possible negative review) but that still didn’t change the fact that even after waiting 45 mins to finally be called, i had to wait an extra 20 mins because since my vitals weren’t taken first, the doctor saw a person who came after me. When I finally saw the doctor and inquired the nature of my corns, he told me I was just born that way , lightly scraped my corns and told me to wear comfortable shoes and I was on my way. I thought I was destined to suffer this on an ongoing basis. I don’t wear tight, ill fitting shoes and the treatment he gave me I can and have done myself. Finally a friend of mine commented on the unusual shape of my little toes and that they curled under and could possibly be the the cause of my problem. I looked this up and found that such a condition does exist. I never had this condition all my life and I don’t want to self diagnose so I’ll continue to seek another podiatrist to see if I can get more insight and possibly get some relief.

The care shown by Dr. Adams was first rate. The office clean and the staff helpful. The wait - an hour and a half after my appointment time - was a real problem.
Great option!
Verified patient
Dr. Adams himself is fantastic! Great bedside manner and efficient in time. That said, there was almost zero social distancing enforcement within the lobby/waiting area. It also concerned me some receptionists weren't wearing their face masks at all.

Dr. Adams is great. Personable, knowledgeable, interested, and interesting. He spent as much time as was necessary, doing a thorough interview. exam, and procedures.
Wonderful doctor. He answered all my questions and addressed all my concerns. In overall Dr. Adams made an unpleasant ingrown nail removal extremely comfortable and bearable.
Verified patient
Very professional, knowledgable and friendly. He explained my issue, causes, and steps to help rectify the problem. Now if he could guarantee my healthcare provider approves the solution, I would give him 10 stars, lol
Verified patient
Dr. Adams was kind, professional and expeditious. His exam and the procedures performed were done with ease and confidence. I was nervous about my first ever trip to a Podiatrist. But, put your fears aside. He is a consummate professional who took care of business and kept me chatting throughout, which kept my mind off my concerns that he was alleviating. (Plus, he's handsome to boot!)
Verified patient
Unprofessional, inattentive and unhelpful
It was very comfortable
Verified patient
Dr.Adams and his assistant were very welcoming. He made my son feel comfortable and pain free before going forward with the procedure. Dr.Adams was very understanding to our needs that we are tired of seeing our son suffer with ingrown nails. He did something that no other Doctor did before, so that the nail wouldn't grown again. Thanks Doc!
