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.

Worse Dr I EVER saw!
My experience with Dr Ford was awful! He’s a pitiful excuse for a Dr! Never came in the room to examine me! Stayed out in the hall and talked to me. He’s rude and condescending! I’m STILL waiting (over 8 weeks!) for the results of my CT scan! If you need a foot Dr, don’t pick this guy! You’ll be disappointed!

I forgot to add something about Dr Ford. Not only was he rude to my wife and me but I found out he had put that I had been addicted to cocaine. I’ve NEVER used cocaine in my life! Sad! I was able to get it taken off my chart. He also said there was conflict between my wife and me! How he came up with that I’ll NEVER know. My wife and I have been happily married for over 44 years! I’m not sure what his problem is but if you go to him be sure and check your chart. It’s your right to do so.

TERRIBLE ADMINSTRATION. I would never go to this office for anything. Please be warned. My wife was given this doctor from her PCP, and when she made the visit they told her that they no longer accept her insurance. When I called to tell them that Anthem told me they need to call Anthem and have themselves removed from the plan so nobody else would get a bad referral, the girl refused to listen to what I was trying to tell her and hung up. CUSTOMER SERVICE AT THIS OFFICE IS OF THE POOREST KIND.

I had surgery a few years back to repair a bunion. My post operative card was nonexistent and he told me to go back to work immediately, when I drove and walked for my job. My foot did not heal properly and no other physician would do anything since I was under his care. A year later he clean the surgical site and no improvement. My foot, balance, and flexibility is way worse than before I had the surgery. Another orthopedic surgeon in Nashville finally gave me a little relief from the pain

When I went to see Dr. Ford, I waited 45 minutes after my appointment time before he was ready to see me. When he did come into the room, he was clearly rushed; he looked at one foot without touching it and made a quick assessment of the other foot, telling me that a prior diagnosis of Morton's neuroma was wrong. I was hoping to find a doctor who would pay attention to my foot care because I am diabetic. Dr. Ford was abrupt and uninterested.
