Coming from a person who dreads going to doctors, these women are GREAT. They take your issue seriously, they speak to you clearly and really make sure you know what’s going on with both your injury and your bill, and they immediately get you started on a plan to recovery. Very low wait time, they imported most documents from ZocDoc so there wasn’t repetitive paperwork, and every person from the receptionist to the doctor was extremely kind. I have a follow up scheduled with them, and it’s the first time in a long time that I’m happy to go back to a doctor’s office!

Verified patient
Dr. Rick’s is awesome and I will be going back to see her for my continued recovery of my fractured foot. She was really thorough in listening to me explanations and asking questions, as well as gentle in doing her assessment of my foot. She also took a lot of time and care to explain to me the current status of my fracture, all of the considerations, and the details of my treatment plan. She answered all of my questions and even talked me through the situation with my insurance which I have found doctors very rarely are willing to do rather then pushing me off to their admin team, and I really appreciated that she took time to talk to me about insurance. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
Verified patient
Dr. Ricks is super helpful and caring. She provided information about my foot condition and found ways to get me help when certain things weren't included my by insurance. The staff at the office were great and friendly. I definitely feel very confident and comfortable about the treatment I received and would recommend it for others who required podiatry attention. I sprained my ankle, and have flat and bunions.
