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.

Best foot Dr. Ever!!
Dr. Bonvillian, was very kind, caring, and knowledgeable with helping me with my many months later foot surgery healing problem. I wish he had done the surgery! I highly recommend him as a foot doctor who takes time to care and listen to understand your problem or need. A very Positive and knowledgeable Foot Doctor!! :)

Excellent staff and physician
I've seen Dr. B twice and he has taken his time, explained everything and listened to my questions. He is great about exploring all options before jumping to surgery.

My visit with Dr. Bonvillain was excellent. Word-of-mouth brought me to his services, he is an expert in his field and if you need a foot and ankle orthopedist - I would not trust anyone else. My visit involved a broken toe that the urgent care physician thought might need surgery, Dr. Bonvillain did not recommend surgery. His conservative approach is exactly what I needed and I appreciate that he is monitoring my healing process for changes. Highly recommend.

Dr. Bonvillain is absolutely amazing! I came into the hospital with a very bad ankle injury and I was referred to him for surgery. I’m so thankful that he became my ortho doctor! He is very patient and always is accommodating and has a great bedside manner. I couldn’t of asked for better treatment, because he, along with his staff treat you like you are family. I will recommend him to anyone!

I was referred to Dr. Bonvillain by another orthopedist after I didn't get better with bracing and therapy. I was told by another doctor that "nothing was wrong". He was able to diagnose my problem and was very open in discussing all my options. Excellent bedside manner! We did surgery and cannot be more happy with my recovery. I wish I would've seen him sooner! Highly recommend him. He now takes care of my entire family!

I would absolutely recommend Dr. Bonvillain. I had a severe ankle injury that required surgery and several months of rehab. Not only is he an incredibly talented surgeon but compassionate and easy to talk to and understand. I have been a patient for 7 months and can honestly say I have never had any type of issue with this office. The entire staff is professional and extremely helpful. A rare find in the medical world today!

Dr. Bonvillain took care of my 5 year old son who dislocated his finger after a baseball game. He was so kind and compassionate. He spent a lot of time with us going over his xrays, educating us on his injury, and how to prevent it further more. For a child it can be very scary to go to the doctor but he made it a pleasant experience. His staff was extremely nice and helpful. I would highly recommend seeing Dr. Bonvillain for all of my family and friends.

I exhausted all of my sick/vacation days. I wasn't quite (physically) ready to assume my job duties. Doctor wrote light duty instructions but there is no such thing for a custodian. I can't return until the 04/30/2018. Guidelines for this process vary depending on the company. He refused to fill out the paperwork which would have allowed me to get 60% of my pay and health ins. for 2 1/2 weeks. He's young and evidently doesn't understand. My RX was sent to Gretna and mailed ( 4 days later) to me
