“Dr. Graham is a wonderful and excellent doctor! He knows his craft and is an amazing surgeon and wound care specialist! He saved my husbands leg by working for many months on a terrible wound that would not heal. My husband is a diabetic so wound healing no matter how minor is challenging. Dr. Graham got it healed!! He was 100% on top of every aspect of our care and we continue and will always continue to see him for all our foot, ankle and wound care. I can't express enough how great he is and we would not go anywhere else. His staff, Lisa, is very friendly and helpful and was kind enough to call us when we left our package there by mistake. Thank you Dr. Graham and Lisa”

“We went out of our way to find Dr. Jemaar Graham after our son suffered a serious ankle and foot injury this past weekend, including a full ligament tear, a partial tear, and a fracture, along with a wrist sprain.
Dr. Graham treated our son last year for a partial ligament tear when he was near Sarasota Memorial, and the experience made a lasting impact. When this new injury happened, our son was adamant about going back to him.
He now has his own office in Lakewood Ranch, about a 45 minute drive for us. We passed closer options to see him, and after this visit, we are completely confident it was the right decision.
Dr. Graham is knowledgeable, direct, and takes the time to explain both the injury and the plan. He connects well with athletes and builds trust quickly.
We would highly recommend him and would not hesitate to see him again.”

April 21, 2026Stacy B.Verified patient
Dr. Graham, listen to my issues and addressed them. I think He's a good Doctor. He is truly interested in his patient's wellbeing, but most importantly, he listens to you. I would recommend him to my family and friends.
April 19, 2026Mary L.Verified patient
I would go back but because he bills different my insurance didn’t cover it. It was a little pricey for the removal of one corn.
March 25, 2026Ann M.Verified patient
It is difficult getting a quick appointment with a podiatrist so I was pleased that I could schedule one less than 48 hours after contacting the office, at a time that suited me. I think the office is transitioning from a former long established practice into a new one so the check in time at the office was unduly long as the assistant struggled with the software. However the doctor was patient, clearly understood my issues, fixed one and provided prescriptive medicine to cover other concerns discussed at our appointment. Medicare original was accepted and I paid the copay which was reasonable. I would recommend this practice and give it a chance to get going. I will attend my follow up in 2 weeks.
March 18, 2026Paul C.Verified patient

March 14, 2026Ellen F.Verified patient
efficient , courteous service -- listened to my complaints, did an analysis of the issue, provided treatment options and answered all of my questions and then without haste provided the request treatment. Well done!
March 9, 2026Gerarda R.Verified patient
Great doctor & surgeon. Dr Graham did my Achilles tendon reattachment surgery. No pain afterwards, almost no scarring and was the best possible experience when I was super anxious.
I would go back in a minute if I had another problem. I would drive out of my way to have him again as a surgeon if I needed one.
February 13, 2026Cathy T.Verified patient
This doctor is top notch. You are treated as an individual, not a number. The doctor provided multiple solutions to my problem and clearly laid out advantages to both. This allowed for a conservative or aggressive approach - my choice. I trust this doctor.

I had a pleasant experience. Dr. Graham listened to my history and explained his treatment plan. he answered all of my questions.
I will be following up with him after I have an MRI of my foot.

Dr Graham is the best. He has removed 3 ingrown toenails for me, and each always in the most painless and professional manner.

Very good experience!!!! Yes I would go back!!!
February 9, 2026Keith H.Verified patient
You’re immediately greeted with a smile when you walk in. The wait was less than 5 minutes.
The medical assistant is warm, patient and thorough, but that’s all just the run-up o meeting with Dr. Graham.
He is personable, knowledgeable and asks questions, then listens to your answer.
Check out was again less than 5 minutes, complete with payment and booking the follow up appointment.

January 23, 2026David B.Verified patient
I am pleasantly surprised by the friendliness of the staff as well as Dr. Graham! The staff knew the incoming patients by name and greeted them as such.
Dr. Graham is personable, knowledgeable and kind. He took his time explaining my foot/ankle break and the healing process. He gave me options for my treatment and was sure to ask me, as well as my husband, if we had questions.
I left feeling confident that I received the best care available.

August 19, 2024Laura Z.Verified patient
The doctor was absolutely wonderful extremely knowledgeable great personality a real pleasure would highly recommend to anyone . The Zocdoc was misleading about my appointment.was extremely pleased that Pamela was able to get me a appointment on the day zocdoc said I had a appointment Thank you to the staff and doctor
July 8, 2024Steven S.Verified patient
Was told I didn’t have an appointment- and blamed the problem on Zocdoc (though the person admitted that someone from the Dr’s office should have called me to confirm).
The person at the desk said she’d check with the Dr. she came back to say that the PA was checking. That was the last communication from the receptionist. I saw her talking to the PA . I overheard the PA asking whether my info was in the system. I could go on, but here’s the bottom line. Nobody saw me, no one spoke to me and finally after 20 minutes of waiting just to find out if I’d be seen - I left
Seems to me, if a practice can’t get the admin part straight- I’m not particularly confident in their getting the care part and the billing part straight
Three hours later and no call/no apology for their screwup
March 4, 2024Initials hidden
Dr Graham was very personable.
Was impressed they took X-rays of my foot beforehand so the Dr knew what my issues were.
Answered my all my questions and was given several options as to what to do next.
I will feel very comfortable scheduling my surgery with him.
