Good experience...things were explained to me that were not known to me. X-rays revieled things that I needed to know.

I have been very impressed with Crystal Falls Podiatry. Brenda, front staff, will brighten your day with her cheery helpful disposition. She was so efficient with insurance, scheduling and answering any question I had. I had the privilege of seeing Dr. Dao. She is kind, patient, compassionate and very knowledgeable about all things related to my painful feet. I highly recommend making Crystal Falls your first and only choice for your feet.

This was the best experience I’ve had with a doctor! No lie haha. I have a close second and third from California but Dr. Van Dao was amazing!!! She’s friendly, super clear, caring, and knew exactly what to do/suggest/everything. I am so happy I found exactly what I needed. I was worried the office was far-ish away but this was totally worth it! Also, front desk (Brenda) was so sweet!

My visit was a top tier visit. Even before I had my procedure done I felt immediate relief. I was greeted by the sweetest receptionist & got my paperwork processed very quickly & immediately was taken back to my room. Not even 3 minutes after I had sat down Dr. Van Dao came in and introduced herself, asked me questions about my ingrown toenail and then walked me through the 2 procedures I could choose from. She was very honest and open about how these procedures worked and what to expect. She was very sweet and kind which made my experience on getting my nasty ingrown toenail removed a whole lot smoother. In less than an hour I was wrapped up and on my way home. I will see her in two weeks for a follow up appointment which was included in today’s bill (a very affordable price compared to other places) and I’m so excited. I’m beyond grateful for her and am happy to be on the road to recovery! I highly recommend you come here. Your feet will be so appreciative.

Dr. Van Dao DPM is absolutely amazing! I have been dealing with a particular issue for over four years without any relief. I recently found out that podiatrists can take care of the issue. So I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Van Dao DPM. I was so blessed that she was able to see me right away. She took my concern very seriously and is making sure I am getting the treatment that I need.

Dr. Van Dao was so nice and knowledgeable! I went in after I twisted my ankle and she knew a treatment plan right away! Even explained the tendons to me! I would highly recommend her.

She was very sweet and personable so I felt very comfortable sharing with her about my toe issue that turned out to be a case of hammer toe. I highly recommend her! And I rarely write reviews but she deserves all the stars and high ratings.
