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.

Doctor was straight forward. He was easily relatable. I like his way of explaining and including my husband.

Great Doctor
He has operated on both my feet and did a great job (one was a correction from another doctor’s failed surgery). He’s very good about keeping you informed and has a great bedside manner. Highly recommend.

He is very polite and professional.
He explains everything in a way that is easy to follow. He let's you see the images of scans so you can clearly see what is ailing you specifically and makes sure you truly understand how the problems occurred and what needs to happen for the body to heal. He takes his time with the patient as well listening to concerns and questions, providing thoughtful explanations while being quick in diagnosis and a treatment plan.

Very knowledgeable
Dr Briggs takes time to go over xrays to show me what he did and what needs to happen over next couple of months.He listens to what i say and makes a plan of action that we both know and can acheive. It gives me hopre that he thinks that there is a very goid chance that i will be walking without any device by Christmas of 2024.

The check in time was very efficient for the amount of people in line waiting. My X-ray was also done in a timely and efficient manor. I was also pleased with Dr Briggs as he ask questions and did his examination of my foot. The only downside was the extremely long wait time to be seen by him.
