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.

Frustrating
Nothing more frustrating than a doctor who doesn’t listen. As a lifelong runner and hiker, when Dr. Hultman’s response to my bunion was to “not run and walk as much,” I was shocked by his lack of support or solutions (I’m a healthy 22 year old female). I had to pry other options out of him. After doing my own research, I visited a new practice a year later to request custom orthotics. I was surprised to be greeted by Dr Hultman there (he transferred to the new practice). At this visit, I also asked him to help remove a plantar wart. He told me to buy wart remover from the drug store. This guy feels like a waste of copays. Please listen to your patients.

Dr Lucas Hultman has been treating my calluses (from medication side effects) for the past 5 years. He is a genuine and trustworthy podiatrist with professional skills & knowledge, he is detailed & patient, he listens & answers all my questions, always gives great advises, I like how he documented everything in the after visit clinic report, great doctor!

More than $1000 for 15 mins
Overall disappointing. I saw Dr Hultman on the recommendation of my PHP - he was the third podiatrist I'd seen in LA. His service was what I'd describe as adequate, but the billing cost was four times what I paid anywhere else, so consider yourself warned.

Inadequate response after ingrown toenail procedure resulted in an infection. I experienced toe pain for 7 extra weeks that could have been avoided.
