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.

Thorough exam in relaxing atmosphere
This was my third annual foot exam by Dr Murphy. He is always very thorough and willing to answer questions. I like the professional and business-like way the office staff refers to me as Mrs. Lastname instead of a condescending first name basis. If your insurance offers shoes, he has a good selection and is willing to complete the tons of necessary paperwork so you can get them. Plus, the exam chair is super comfortable.

Friendly Dr with clarity for my foot treatment
Thanks Dr. Murphy. Very friendly. Neatly explained the procedure. Have given full clarity on the problem in foot and toes. Did the clipping of in grown toe nail without much hassle. Helped me to diagnose the Toe infections by sending them to lab. Staff is also friendly to receive us and schedule the follow ups.

I came to Dr. Murphy's office for bunion removal surgery. I have never undergone surgery before (other than wisdom teeth removal), so I was quite nervous and had no idea what to expect. From the 1st appointment to the last ( 2 months later), Dr. Murphy and his team were always there for me whenever I had a question or concern. They were super flexible with their schedule and always accommodated me whenever I was late. I highly recommend this friendly,intelligent surgery for any foot need.

My elderly mom had a terrible experience. Clinically poor physician and unresponsive to phone calls. Recommended custom made inserts to my mom for $700 which she paid cash and it took 3 months to receive them. When she did get them they were a size too big and looked like something you could order online for $100. He charged my mom for follow up visits even though they should have been part of the initial diagnosis. Now my mom has spend over $1000 for inserts that still aren’t proper
