Patient Reviews of University Foot and Ankle Institute

Dr. Feldman and his staff are wonderful. He is a great doctor and really knows about feet and what can be done to alleviate problems and pain. He always offers detailed explanations with solutions. His staff is very professional and friendly. Thank you.

I told Dr. B and the assistants that attended to me that I have, and have had for about 4 years, a strange feeling in my toes and ball of my foot that feels as if the tissue is filled with crumbled up Styrofoam. I feel this, for example, if I curl my toes.
I asked Dr B and the assistants at both sessions, "What is the name of this symptom? What is causing it? Is there some treatment or therapy that can eliminate the feeling of crunched styrofoam?
I never received an answer to this question. There were sort of puzzled looks and then, immediately, the topic would shift to creating orthotics for my feet.
Well, I have and wear, the orthotics. But I would still like to know why I feel crunching styrofoam in my feet. Is it a problem with the nerves? Do other patients ever mention a similar feeling?

I had to wait in the exam room too long in my opinion. I alerted staff several times that I had to leave for work but they didn't seem to understand the urgency. I had to leave and come back the next day to pick up my orthotics

Very good experience with Dr. Carter, very medically knowledgable & takes time to discuss my badly broken ankle. He prescribed physical therapy & it's helped tremendously.
His assistant Erica is very excellent what she does w/ help & assisted me from sawing off case to prepared medical tools laid out on medical table. Erica is an excellent assistant for Dr. Carter & very confident on what she does when it's
assists doctor & client. Very nice person as well.

I am satisfied with my visit. That the red car made sure that I was comfortable with my new orthotics and explained that she would be available if I had any problems. I do want to schedule a follow up visit next month if possible.
