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.

RUDE! UNPROFESSIONAL! ONLY COMMUNICATES VIA TEXT!
I contacted him a couple months ago. The 1st problem is, he refuses to communicate via phone or email. ONLY TEXT! Since many home visit patients are elderly or disabled, this is restrictive and unreasonable. It took him months to text a response "I can't schedule you for a podiatry house call without a copy of your Medicare card, unless you want to pay cash ($120 no cards.) Since I'd hired another Podiatrist 3 mo. ago, I thought it was them needing the ins. card, again, for the next (4th) visit. When I called the phone # on the text and discovered who I was speaking with, I told him I had already found a podiatrist. Right after we hung up he texted me "Thanks for wasting my time." WHO WOULD EVEN WANT SUCH A RUDE, UNPROFESSIONAL LIKE THIS IN THEIR HOME? He should have his medical license revoked (assuming he has one.)

I had a terrible ingrown toenail For both feet and he came to my house at the scheduled time completely prepared. He filled me in on the proper information, answering me with all the questions I had. I’ve gone to multiple people in the past about this and if it weren’t for him. It would have gotten a lot worst

I was staying at the Mirage in Las Vegas for a convention. I had to be on my feet all day at the convention center and came down with a terrible case of plantar fasciitis. I found Dr Louk at Appointment Today Podiatrist by searching "heel pain" on google. He came to my hotel and diagnosed my foot problem, gave me a cortisone injection, taped my foot, gave me a heel cup, arch supports, and 60 Naprosyn tablets, and showed me some stretching exercises to do. The pain relief was almost instant a

I was staying at the Luxor when my toe turned dark purple with yellow pus coming out from under the toenail. I googled to find a Podiatrist close to the strip and found Dr Louk is right on the strip and will come to my hotel. I was afraid I had waited too long to have this looked at, but Dr Louk assured me that he's seen much worse and this was an easy fix. Dr Louk brought everything with him: sterile instruments, antibiotic pills, ice pack, and gauze and self adhesive wrap for tomorrow. Dr

We were staying at the Venetian and I had a terrible ingrown toenail that was killing our vacation plans. My husband was so disappointed. We had tickets for a helicopter ride in the afternoon and a Cirque show that night. Dr Louk came to our hotel and removed the ingrown toenail, and brought antibiotic pills, ice pack, and sterile supplies for dressing changes tomorrow. It was a one stop shop without leaving my hotel room and took less than 20 minutes. After an hour of elevating the foot on

I was in Las Vegas for the SEMA Show and had a terrible gout attack in my foot. I called Dr Louk at 2 in the morning and he answered the phone himself and was at my Bellagio room about 30 minutes later. He numbed my foot, which gave immediate pain relief. He then took a joint fluid sample and injected the joint with a medicine and gave me 15 colchicine pills, which I usually travel with, but forgot this trip. Dr Louk called me the next morning to confirm that he saw uric acid crystals in the

I spend long hours on my feet as a nurse. I spent over $700 at the GoodFeet store and those things just hurt my feet and back. My co-workers told me about Dr Louk. He came to my hospital and took plaster casts of my feet and in 4 days had made beautiful custom molded foot orthotics just for my foot condition. They have made a tremendous improvement in my life. All this for $280, guaranteed for life against breakage or malformation.

Dr. Louk fixed me right up. I have planters fasciitis and I am on my feet 10 to 12 hours a day at the hospital. He was very knowledgeable. He taped up my heel and gave me inserts for my sneakers.

I flew to Vegas when my Mom got admitted to the ICU. I cried when I saw her feet. They looked like claws and the nails were torn and cuticles bleeding. The nurse had taped booties on her feet to keep from getting cut. They said the Doctor had requested a Podiatry consult, but after 3 days of waiting the Podiatrist called back and said "I don't trim toenails." I searched the web and found Dr Louk. He carefully trimmed the horrible nails, and Mom didn't even wake up during the treatment.

I had a terrible case of heel pain while standing all day at my trade show in Las Vegas. I didn't think I would be able continue for two more days. I searched online and found "Appointments Today Podiatry." Dr Louk came to my hotel at 9pm when I finished my 1st day at the trade shoe. He injected my heel and taped my foot, very similar to the way we used to tape our feet in ballet. He added a padded insole in my shoe, showed me some stretches to do, and I worked 2 more 12 hr days.
