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.

Excellent care
Helpful and professional both Dr. Gavigan and his staff.

I’ve had problems with ingrown toenails for years. I had been searching for a new podiatrist and I found Dr. Gavigan on the internet. Dr. Gavigan was outstanding. He took the time to explain my problem with ingrown toenails. He knew how to treat my problem. I left his office pain free and feeling terrific. Check him out. It’s worth it.

Great doctor and really good practitioner
I have been a patient of Dr. Gavigan's for the last 12 to 15 years and wouldn't think of going anywhere else. Always a pleasure and my feet can't be happier. 6 stars.

My family medical – Feb 24, 2021

It took Dr Gavigan’s office three months to contact me after my primary care doctor’s referral the first time. Then Dr Gavigan didn’t even look at my feet because I had back problems and he assumed it was due to my back issues. One year later and I am in agony. My primary care doctor has again sent a referral and being already a patient, I assumed it would be faster. It has now been three weeks and no phone call. I am looking for another podiatrist.

Went to Dr. Gavigan with a bunion on each foot which I've tried to ignore for years. It finally caught up with me and I knew I'd probably need bunion surgery. He did say, indeed, I needed surgery. He referred me to Crimson Ankle and Foot in Cambridge and I've had the first one done. Great reference!
