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.

I've worn orthotics since 1971 and my most recent pair, made in '87 have bee fantastic until I blew out a Nike Air insole and aggravated my rt foot. Dr. Yount was dismissive to my requests to work with my existing orthotics in ways that have 2x in the past rehabbed me with other podiatrists, both out of state. B4 this I ran and lead a very active life. Yount's main goal was a cortisone injection and then he did an unrequested re-arching my rt orth, making it unwearable. Stay away from this guy

I have seen Dr. Yount a couple of times for different problems. Great service all around and great bedside manner. He was happy to explain what was going on in my case using diagrams and models. I have only visited him in his advanced foot and ankle clinic and the entire staff was friendly and efficient.
