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.

Entire staff was very friendly and caring. I did not have a long wait after check in to be taken to exam room.

Outstanding Dr that will take the time to listen to your needs. Together we came up with a game plan for treatment. Dr Cush performed several foot surgeries on me and the end results the desired outcome. I’m my opinion he is one of the top foot and ankle surgeons in the country.

Gave options, explained all procedures in length. Very knowledgeable of what he feels would be good option for you considering your bone structure.

Dr Cush and his staff were very good at explaining my problem and addressed all of my questions so that I understood the answers. I had a dyna-nail ankle fusion in February 2020. Recovery is going well.

I have had great success with the first ankle replacement, Right one, now 12+ years ago, so I fully expected great results with this one. I am now 12 weeks out from the Left ankle replacement, and am already able to walk better and further than before surgery. There is a greater range of motion, which has positively affected other areas of my body, which were negatively impacted by the compromised ankle. I am more than happy.

I had Total ankle replacement surgery. Went as expected. Never needed pain meds after. So far it is much better than before. The Dr and his staff were very polite, punctual, and professional.

Dr. Cush gave me an ankle replacement, I went to see him because of the pain/arthritis I was having. I was planning on getting it fused but Dr Cush suggested on an ankle replacement because of the movement I still had.. I thank him everyday doing the replacement, No Pain!!! And I was told I wouldn’t be able to have a replacement!! Thank You again Dr. Cush.. I can walk now with no pain..
