I visited Dr. Nodelman many years ago after I developed sciatica (severe back nerve issues) and he prescribed/designed a foot/leg brace that helped me tremendously with my right foot drop (it's merely very slight now). I visited him this time for help with my toenail fungus, which has been a problem on and off for quite some time. He took a sample and is sending it to be tested, then he will recommend the next step. He is a wonderful doctor, very pleasant and works hard to help his patients.
December 11, 2024Iris C.Verified patient
This is my first visit to District Foot & Ankle. The waiting area is clean and comfortable. The technician I saw first was kind and attentive. She also laughed at my stupid jokes. Dr. Nodelman was attentive, listening to my feet problems and providing suggestions for possible solutions to my feet pain. Dr. Nodelman explained what the finances would be and what he thought insurance would and wouldn't cover based on his experience. While clearing up the feet pain is important, finances also play into what treatments are accessible for each patient so there was no sugar coating it, which I appreciated. I am scheduled for 4 shockwave treatments over 4 weeks and a pair of custom orthotic inserts. I'll let you know how it turns out but I would suggest this practice as a good place to start.
March 23, 2024Christian W.Verified patient
My visit to District Foot and Ankle was fabulous! There was no wait time, and the support staff was polite and professional. Dr. Nodelman is the best podiatrist I've ever had an appointment with! Dr. Nodelman was very familiar with the type of condition I had and was able to provide me top-notch treatment! As a US Army Veteran, sometimes we have to go out into the community for treatment, and it means a lot to have a doctor that appreciates my service. Thank you Dr. Nodelman!
