Dr. Mah is listed as a podiatrist and surgeon, however he refused to remove a painful plantar wart and offered to give a referral for another doctor to do it. After living in pain for months I was grateful to find a podiatrist so quickly. I was very disappointed that he wasn't willing to do anything to help. Why pay for his visit and then another doctor who will actually help? Dr. Mah prescribed a specialty compound that is only available through a special company who he promised would contact me that day. After four days of no contact I called them and they said that Dr. Mah never ordered the prescription for me. Not impressed with this doctor.

Scheduling was easy although the provider changed the date from the date I picked. At the appointment I felt unheard, I expressed pain from the boot that was given by an urgent care and the response “wear it and we’ll see you back in 3 months,” no other alternatives. I won’t be going back.

Dr Mah was thorough, prompt and good listener
December 10, 2024Joni F.Verified patient
Dr. Mah took one look at my feet and diagnosed the problem right away. He explained his diagnosis and assured me that I did not need surgery; that the condition could be treated in the office. I felt so much better on the way out, both physically because my foot pain disappeared and emotionally now that I knew my condition was not serious. His assistants were very kind also; it was very good experience overall.

Dr. Mah is very knowledgeable and does this research to find alternative ways to treat my issues. I have had multiple surgeries with Dr Mah and each one with a great outcome. I would recommend Dr Mah to all my family and friends.
