I had a very productive visit with the provider.
However, booking the visit with Zocdoc was another story. The appointment was not relayed to the MD office so I was not expected. I was lucky they could accommodate me following the 30 minute walk to get there. I wouldn’t recommend booking through Zocdoc.

December 13, 2020David R.Verified patient
Who knew? I was really concerned that something might be terribly wrong with the bottom of my foot. I had surgery in 2018 for a bump in almost the same place and now another. He showed me what this one was. A callous this time. He shaved it down and put a pad on it and it feels so much better. Skinny feet with no fat on the bottom. I have another appointment already for a recheck and for him to do it again in the event is makes another callous.
