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.

Terrific Doctor
I started going to Dr. Niknafs after my wife recommended him. I had gone to two other podiatrists in town and had reasons to be unhappy with both and I am generally not unhappy. I have been extremely happy with Dr. Niknafs and his staff. And, regarding another review, I have only been asked to come back when I had my toenails removed. Otherwise, we have been one and done.

I saw a podiatrist who misdiagnosed my foot problem. After a year and over $800 out of pocket with no relief, I saw Dr. Niknafs. He analyzed my x-ray while I described my problem. He disagreed with the other doctor's diagnosis. He explained in detail it was a Morton's Neuroma and the clicking sound was known as Muldor's Click. It's a common foot condition ...on the poster on the wall beside me. He solved my pain by giving me alcohol injections over the next 10 weeks. He IS the BEST!
