I would highly recommend Dr. Duggal. He was extremely helpful in my process of deciding to have a bunion surgically repaired. He explained the options and was very clear about the procedure and recovery. He encouraged me to ask questions and made himself available to answer them. Dr. Duggal has a very gentle manner which I found to be reassuring- especially on the day of surgery!

I came in after being in the ED for rolling my ankle. He wouldn't come in the room and when he finally did he didn't examine my ankle, just went off the ED x-rays said it was a sprain and sent me in my way. I finally went for a 2nd opinion after 2 weeks of pain and sure enough my ankle is broken and all this time I've been treating it like a sprain.

This was my second reconstructive foot surgery with Dr. Duggal. His bedside manners and knowledge are like no other. Dr. Duggal’s professionalism and honesty made me feel I was in the right hands. He corrected surgeries that I had done by a previous podiatrist and I can truly say I am now happy and satisfied with the outcomes. I wish I would have gone to him from the start! He was even kind enough to offer me insight into the medical field which I hope to pursue. I would recommend him for anyone’s foot and ankle needs.

Dr. Duggal has been treating me since last November. He performed surgery to remove plates and screws from my ankle. Through no fault of Dr. Duggal I ran into several issues. He has seen me several times post surgery always telling me what I can do to improve. Everything he suggested has helped so much. Just love this man

So far, I have seen Dr. Duggal twice and physician assistant, Sean LoVallo once. I was comfortable with both and felt that I was listened to and treated respectfully. My injury is progressing as it should, and I trust the treatment decisions that both Dr. Duggal and Mr. LoVallo are making. Overall, other than my injury, it has been a pleasant experience.

The office was very efficient from me calling for an appointment to get in as soon as possible with a swollen ankle for a few weeks. Dr Duggal was very knowledgeable & sent me over for ultrasound to rule out any blood clotting which I never thought about. He explained that we would then get an MRI if the ultrasound was negative. Which it was. Will be getting MRI tomorrow as it has been scheduled. Even though I have only been there once to Dr. Duggal I would highly recommend him.

Immediately felt comfortable with Dr. Duggal and confident in his ability to diagnose my problem. He could have ordered an MRI or suggested surgery, but instead, took a conservative approach to treating my problem. He is very knowledgeable and empathetic.

Wonderful doctor. bedside manner and explaining procedures and after surgery to myself and family was spot on. Never felt "talked down to". He explained everything and had no problem with me asking questions. His office staff was excellent. Appointments are made in a timely manner. Recent ankle surgery and have no complaints of his expertise.

Dr. Duggal was easy to talk to. He opted for physical therapy before jumping to an MRI and possibly surgery. He made me feel comfortable and assured. I would recommend him to any family member or friend.
