Dr. Christopher Powers is an outstanding DPM doctor and I am very happy that I located him. He’s so knowledgeable regarding my feet and he goes out of his way to resolve any issues and problems you may be experiencing with your feet. I made the right decision to change DPM doctors due to my other doctor had moved to a new location and his office wasn’t returning calls to book appointments if you left a message nor did he return any website inquiries. Dr. Powers has different locations and my preference is the Temple Hills location, I’m very happy and totally satisfied with him and his office staff they make you feel comfortable and confident in their ability!
