Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I had been seeing Dr. Dugan for years, from bunion surgeries to metatarsal nerve pain to plantar fasciitis. I was always happy with his services, not to mention his wonderful attitude and bedside manner. I was shocked to find that, upon recently calling his office to confirm an appointment, he is no longer with the firm—and no one was forthcoming with a reason why. I don't understand the need for this secrecy. It is upsetting. It is also extremely unprofessional of the firm to not contact Dr. Dugan's patients to inform them of such a drastic change so they can research and choose other other doctors.

Dr Dugan charges $175 for each visit to remove a planter's wart. You will probably need to see him 2-5 times to completely remove it. For that $175, you see him for 2 minutes and he uses a simple scalpel and acid. Not much equipment or training needed for $175. I would recommend finding a different podiatrist that charges a reasonable amount. Their office manager was also a little snotty, how would I dare question the amount billed? I would like to see if she would pay a bill of that nature without questioning it...
