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.

Most comprehensive appointment
The office is very simple and welcoming. Dr. Katz spent time explaining exactly what was going on and what he would suggest to correct my problem. He listened to my concerns and helped me make a plan for my treatment. Great, first visit. I'll definitely be back!

I used Dr. Katz a few times for issues I had back when I was a competitive runner. I have sought his help recently for issues common with older patients now that I am in my 80's. If you need foot or ankle care, you are cheating yourself if you do not use Dr. Katz. He has over 30 years in practice and has even patented two medical devices to assist patients with various issues. If you want the best pediatric are in Pinellas County, see Dr. Katz!

Kindness and comfort
Dr. Katz has treated both my children’s foot issues. One of my daughters suffers with panic disorder. Both Dr. Katz and his receptionist/assistant were very kind and did their absolute best to put my daughter at ease. I am always appreciative of people that go that extra mile for my kiddos. And he did a great job fixing up their foot issues. I have now been to this office 7 times and have received nothing but top notch service.
