Verified patient
Se Falcón is great. Very professional and caring.
Verified patient
Dr. Falcone is great. He makes sure you understand exactly what is going on with what you are there for, and how to fix it. The wait time was longer, but that may also be because Dr. Falcone has newer people checking patients in. For me personally, I needed orthotics and I was able to come back later today to see Russell who handles creating customized orthotics. He's only in on Wednesdays though. Russell scanned my foot with the iPad to make a 3D model of my feet to create the orthotics, which I'll be able to pick up at the office. The people at the front desk were very friendly and did their best to get all of my information to make sure all of it was accurate and nothing was missed.
