Dr. M Colon was amazing she made me feel really comfortable and was very nice. I have 2 more appts with her and I would recommend her to anyone.
My doctor was very engaging and informative. He explained the process every step of the way, discussed my options, and made me feel empowered to decide. VERY professional staff, courteous and kind. Never made me feel embarrassed about what for me was kinda an embarrassing situation-- toe nail fungus.

I was happy with the service I received from the doctor. However, the wait time was longer that I had anticipated.
He was very knowledgeable and I learned something i didn't know about my foot bones.

This was the first time and the staff got me checked in, called to the back, evaluated and took the necessary steps to have me ready. Upon Dr. Colons' arrival he listened and gave me a simple treatment for my condition.
Verified patient
It was a great experience. Doctor and staff were very professional, pleasant and provided some great advice and recommendations! Loved it.
Verified patient
I saw M. Colon and she is great.
Verified patient
The staff was very personable and nice. I had xrays done and she was very clear about her instructions. She went ahead and did them before the doctor came to save time. I ended up having to wear a book on my foot for a stress fracture. he also helped by letting my employer know that I needed to wear special shoes even after my boot comes off for my condition. He even recommended a treatment for an issue I am having that won't be covered by insurance but gave a reasonable rate and I will be taking advantage of that service as well. He questioned me to find out what was wrong and examined my foot then looked at the xrays to determine a diagnosis. I also found I have a bunion which was news to me. So all in all he gave me a lot of information I needed and helped me with everything I needed to stay healthy even after my treatment is over.
Verified patient
