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.

It’s been five months since I started seeing Dr Luther. My heel still hurts just as much now, if not more, than it did before. Orthotics took 2 months to come in, I wore them for a month & noticed no improvement. After repeated fittings, each billed with a copay, orthotics had to be sent back because they were too small. Over a month again to get them back, and I’m the one who has to call to find out if they are back and ready for pick up! Feels like an endless cycle of copays and very expensive orthotics with no relief in sight. Considering seeing a different doctor for help. This has been a lot of money for nothing. (She is very nice during appointment though.)

I went to Dr. Luther experiencing foot pain. She fitted me with custom made Orthotics. I have been pain free and comfortable ever since. Dr. Luther was very kind and professional. Her office was bright and welcoming too. Staff was great and helpful in every aspect.

I love Dr. Luther and her medial assistants! So warm and welcoming, and very knowledgeable! Her front desk staff need a little work - the one receptionist in particular is a little snooty and unorganized. Very condescending and does not leave a good first impression of the office. But I can deal with a little rudeness from a medical secretary for a great doctor!
