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.

Careful
After surgery years ago, I had to have several reconstructive surgeries to fix everything. Still in pain today but I can walk.

Near had a problem talking with him on issues of my foot and I've never been rushed . He's always listen to what I've had to say.. If I didn't agree with something that he said, he's had not problem with that. I will say he could be a little bit more gentle of injecting shots into the foot. Either you like him or you don't, I happen to like him...

He removed a bunion from my foot and did a good job. I was not told what the surgery was, nor what the post surgery would be, how long I would be out of commission, etc. Every time I walked into the office they wanted to charge me $30.00. When I asked what for it was for something that I had already paid, then they would say, er, xrays, office visit or whatever. My insurance pays 100% of my bill, and I knew this. I told them this fact and they finally got it right the last post opp. So, be sure to ask questions about pre and post op to go into your surgery with knowledge and be sure to know your insurance or they will continue to charge you for whatever

Dr Salcedo is one of the most caring Doctors I have ever come across. He spends Quality time with you and explains everything to you. You leave his office knowing things will be better for you. His office stay is also kind and courteous. They all truly care about you. I’m so glad I found this great Doctor. I highly recommend him.

Do not allow this doctor to perform any type of surgery on you. It will result in multiple surgeries down the line in order to fix his mistakes. He will only "fix" part of the problem and claim that everything else was fine. I'm still suffering from his botched surgeries 4 years later. This has resulted in me being unable to walk or stand for long periods of time. I wish I had known this before choosing him to do either of my surgeries.

He is thorough, efficient and clearly takes pride in his work. I was so worried about cost and insurance, but he never lost patience. He and his staff communicate - with each other and with me. I like him, but more so, I respect and trust him because it's easy to see that what he does means something to him. He advocated for me when I couldn't and he is using techniques used to treat elite athletes. I'm 5 days post surgery and can't believe I waited so long.

I will not be referring any friends because I think Dr salcado is a terrible doctor. He was supposed to remove my toenails and I've had to go 4 times now for surgery and still have toenails and it's very painful and he's not giving pain medicine ??????

I have plantar fasciitis and I went to visit Michael Salcedo for treatment. The visit was anything but professional. Dr. Salcedo was arrogant and rushed me the whole way. He would not allow me to finish my answers as he rushed me through the process. I had brought 4 pairs of shoes to the visit and he would not answer my questions about which shoe could help me the most. Throughout my plantar treatments that I have been to Dr. Michael Salcedo provided no relief nor treatment.
