I saw Dr. Matthews today for the first time and immediately felt confident in his diagnostic abilities, as well as comfortable with his bedside manner. I appreciate the time he spent with me, and the explanations he gave me regarding possible reasons for my pain. I am sure he will properly diagnose and treat me, and would recommend him without reservation.

I visited The Podiatry Center for pain in my achilles. Dr. Matthews's initial recommendations provided rapid relief. My MRI revealed underlying problems from old sports injuries that would cause my symptoms to return and gradually worsen. Dr. Matthews recommended a surgical intervention and explained exactly what would be done and why. The surgery went very well and my recovery has been all I could have hoped for. Throughout Dr. Matthews described both the big picture and the details.

Well-done visit and explanation of what's going on with my toenail fungus. We're going to try a conservative approach, starting with a topical treatment first.

Dr Matthews did some minor foot surgery for me and made the process as smooth as possible every step of the way. He squeezed the surgery in at year-end so that I could maximize my health benefits. And, before, during, and after the surgery, he has been available to answer any and all questions in a clear way. He's the best podiatrist I've ever seen!

I saw Dr. Matthews for a consultation after an injury to my foot that resulted in more pain than I expected. I found Dr. Mathews to be very personable and quite patient in providing answers to my questions about my diagnosis. He explained the reasons for the recommended care and follow-up and provided options where appropriate. Very professional and friendly care!

I recently came to Dr. Matthews for serious pain in my foot. He listened patiently, took his time to hear all my concerns and complaints, and then efficiently diagnosed and treated each problem. He was thorough with his explanations of the problems and courses for treatment. He made sure to try everything before resorting to surgery - and it worked! Dr. Matthews is also extremely personable, punctual and pleasant to interact with. I highly recommend.

Outstanding doctor; knowledgeable, capable, and thorough. Plus he has a great sense of humor and knows how to put patients at ease. I needed surgery on my foot. He explained everything, answered all my questions, and did an excellent job. My foot is healing nicely with no complications. If I needed a podiatrist again, I would go back to him in a second. Highly recommended.
