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.

Dr. Darnell should just fold up and quit!
This podiatrist is one of the worst! all he does is cut on ur foot! and sends u out in worse pain then u was when u went and seen him! he promises operations then says he doesn't do surgery! Then he will ask u ur pain scale with no intentions of giving u pain relief! he then blames KASPER knowing all docs and physicians do so why doesn't he? Why does the AMA allow this man to practice when he is far from good at what he is supposed to be! Terrible ! do ur self a favor and steer clear of Dr. Jerod Darnell in Bellefonte Hosp in flatwoods ky

I would not recommend him. All he was interested in was doing surgery. When I said I was not interested he quickly left the room

I am a patient of Dr. Darnell, and he has always been professional, knowledgeable, and has short wait times. When my 7 year old had an issue with her feet, he was the first call. He got her in quick, the wait time was basically non-existent, and he was great with her. He got her in for surgery within a week, squeezing her in so it would not affect the start of school. I would highly recommend him to anyone with foot problems.

Effective podiatrist but over booking and long wait times are so inconvenient. Easier to drive 30 minutes to WV for a 10 minute wait than drive 5 minutes and wait and hour and half. Has always addressed the issues with my feet professionally though. Repeated visits is required so plan on having a lot of time invested in appointments.

The staff is friendly and takes really good care of my brother. Dr. Darnell explains everything I need to know about taking care of my brothers feet. We could not be happier. No long waits and everyone is friendly and helpful.

Had been having trouble with my heel hurting for several months, I finally called my dr. And they recommend Dr. Darnell. Got in very fast, everyone was very nice. Dr. Darnell got right to the problem and got my first treatment the first visit. So glad I went to him.
