Dr Powers and staff were both welcoming and efficient. At the time, I did not have a podiatrist in this area. I am so grateful I initially found a great doctor and office.
June 24, 2026Linda C.Verified patient
This was by far the best podiatrist visit I've ever had! The office staff was amazing—friendly, professional, and genuinely caring. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and well taken care of. The doctor was exceptional. He took the time to explain everything thoroughly, answered all of my questions, and made me feel completely comfortable. His patience, kindness, and reassuring smile made a huge difference. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this practice to anyone seeking outstanding foot care.
June 22, 2026Boneita G.Verified patient
Really appreciate the doctor's honesty. Went in regarding low arches. He didn't try to sell us anything. Didn't push a single solution, and didn't over-promise
He advised us on higher quality over-the-counter inserts and gave us information to make an informed decision. We used the information he provided and the inserts worked.
Ultimately this is why we visit doctors. We want our ailments resolved, quickly and effectively; preferably, inexpensively. That's exactly what we got.
June 18, 2026Christian H.Verified patient
Friendly people clean office it was only one other person in the waiting room when I left out someone else was coming in the office wasn't crowded. It was only my first time but it seems as though they do not double book appointments and I like that
Less than 1 month agoValerie M.Verified patient
Dr. Powers is a good clinician. He was able to ascertain where the discomfort was coming from and trimmed the nail to release it. Very nice bedside manner, friendly and knowledgeable.
June 12, 2026Janice J.Verified patient
This was my first time with Dr. Powers. I thought he was a very good listener and took as much time as I needed. I also thought he seemed kind. I really appreciated his gentle touch when removing the ingrown toenail edges. He also suggested a type of treatment that no other podiatrist has recommended, which I'm considering. I definitely would go back to him.
June 3, 2026Dianne B.Verified patient
I had the best experience with this office, the staff were nice and pleasant and the doctor was so nice and made my visit easy and comfortable. I love this doctor. I will definitely refer patients here and I will return.

He wants to address all my situations with my feet. He took care of the major one that I went in for right away. I just wish she was a little closer to her. :)
May 18, 2026Sandra S.Verified patient
Sure I would go back. From the moment I walked in, the Medical Assistant at the front desk. Awesome!
Dr. Powers is the best!!! Met me with a smile and a firm handshake, friendly. "He most-def knows his stuff." He listened to my concerns without interruption, Wow!! I had my x-ray images on MyChart. He examined me and took care of my problem. Very efficient. A great day, wonderful staff.
While waiting for my Uber, the doctor and the assistant made sure, and double checked before they left that I was okay. His assistant let me know I would be safe, because cameras are installed.
Most-definitely would recommend Dr. Powers.
May 15, 2026Roboid C.Verified patient
