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.

Total foot construction S. G.
Dr Dunn and his staff are very professional and knowledgeable. I had major surgery to my right foot and he walked me through the entire process. He helped me understand everything that I was experiencing and it really helped me to tolerate the discomfort.Later after surgery, I experienced some discomfort but it was nothing that I couldn’t tolerate. I am still healing and each day I try and add more to my household duties. It’s been about seven weeks now and I am still improving every day. Everyone heals and a different level, but for my age, I think I am doing great. It might be a year before I totally heal and I am okay with that, because the main thing is quality of life.Dr Dunn is giving me my quality of life back and I really appreciate him for that.If you are over seventy and having problems with your feet: don’t be afraid to get them corrected. Quality of life is what matters, and Dr Dunn can make it possible for you. I highly recommend him.S. G. Grand Rapids, MI

Dr Dunn is excellent. He was very straightforward and explained the procedures very carefully, making sure I knew how painful this was going to be and how long recovery was going to take. He did a great job and I am now walking without pain. He is very easygoing and accessible, I felt I could trust him and ask lots of questions. The entire staff was friendly and helpful as well.

A very talented surgeon. I have had one ankle and foot rebuilt by him so far and am looking forward to the other one and walking again. He has a great bedside manner and makes sure everything is explained and also takes the time to answer ALL of your questions. It almost makes me sorry I only have two feet for him to work on! (Kidding but he's that good!)

I was having a great deal of pain in my right foot so I saw Dr. Dunn. He immediately diagnosed Mortons Neuroma. We tried cortisone injections to no avail. Surgery was scheduled very quickly. He took the neuroma out and my foot is better than it has been in years. I think Dr. Dunn is so great, very personable and caring.

Dr Dunn diagnosed me with a malignant melanoma under my toe. I had surgery at U of Michigan and got the all clear. Outcome might have been very different if he didn't diagnose it.

I had a chronic problem with swelling and diabetic ulcers on my left foot. It took multiple operations and several Doctors and over six years of no results until I found Dr. Dunn. I did another surgery but this time it worked. My leg is the healthiest it's been in years. I feel my strength coming back every day and I'm walking with more confidence and endurance. Thank you Dr. Karl Dunn. I recommend him to anyone looking to get back on their feet and back to life. ~ David Wyeth

Dr. Dunn is one of the most talented doctors I have ever seen. This doc does it all. He is very empathetic toward his patients and goes leaps and bounds to make sure his patients are well taken care of pre and post operation. Not too many podiatrist are accepted and have completed a fellowship beyond there residency but Dr. Dunn is the man and has that extra experience over many of the podiatrist here in Lansing. I highly recommend this excellent doctor.

As an avid runner, my feet are very important to me. Dr. Dunn was a very compassionate doctor. He listened to all of my concerns, and was very professional. His office staff was also super friendly. I highly recommend him to everyone. He also followed up with me the next week just to make sure I was still doing well. I'll definitely see him again (but hopefully not too soon, hopefully my feet stay injury free for a while).

After being treated by several doctors over the past 3-4 years with multiple severe venous ulcers on my legs, and with my condition worsening to the point of possible amputation of my legs, Dr. Dunn was recommended to me as a doctor that was up to date with modern techniques for wound healing. After visiting Dr. Dunn for just over a month, the wounds on my legs are amazingly healed, something I thought might never happen. I would highly recommend Dr. Dunn to anyone with foot or leg problems.

After seeing Dr. Dunn, I really couldn't have been more satisfied with my care. He was professional yet personable, and it was evident that he was highly skilled in his profession. I could see that he genuinely cared about me and my treatment. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone needing podiatric care.
