“The staff and Dr. Arif are so personable and friendly. They listen to your concerns and take the time to talk and explain your situation with no rushing your visit. They explain in detail the results of your in-house x-rays and how to resolve your problem. I was able to get in the same day I called for an appointment! I am so glad I went to them and have a plan for both of my feet issues.”

Dr. Afir was WONDERFUL! He listened to my problems and solved them right away by scraping them. He even told me that my insurance would cover it if I returned every 3 months. He said the corns will grow back.
