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.

Great Podiatrist
I've just come from seeing Dr. Stoddard again. My name is Steve Solodoff and I have a serious and potentially dangerous foot problem that Dr. Stoddard is attending to. He's taken me from risking losing my foot to it healing over time. I appreciate his personal, hands on approach to his patients and his ability to explain things as well as set me at ease without pulling any punches. But what I like the most about seeing him is that he's one of us. I'm made to feel like I'm visiting him, not so much as going through procedures. He's a man with a heart and a Doctor's intelligence. I highly recommend you see him.

I'm an active 75 year old women who had a really messed up foot. Bunions, hammer toes and torn ligaments. I was no longer able to do the things that I loved. I knew I needed to have my foot fixed. I had consultations with several Podiatrist/Surgeons and just wasn't ready then I met Dr. Stoddard and was confident to go forward with the surgery. This was the best decision I have ever made. Life changing..... The surgery was a success and I no longer have the pain. Dr. Stoddard did an incredible job. He was there from start to finish. Best of all, I no longer have to hide my foot. If you are thinking of having some work done on your feet, I highly recommend seeing Dr. Stoddard

Dr Sean Stoddard repaired a tendon tear on my foot/ankle. Surgery was a success. Dr called me the day after surgery to check on me and left a contact number for any emergencies. No pain at surgery site after a week. Stitches look really good a month after surgery and healing well.

I was referred to Dr. Stoddard by my work Comp doctor for an injury to my foot and Achilles‘ tendon. Best referral ever! He tried to get me healed every way before surgery, but the bone spur wouldn’t go away and I got to the point I could not wear shoes. The surgery went fantastic, and my recovery is going very well! He’s very nice, and a true professional. I would recommend him.

Just got a total ankle replacement. Best thing I have ever done. I haven’t had any pain at all. If you need a total ankle replacement. Call Dr Stoddard.

I've had two surgeries with Dr. Stoddard. Both surgeries were extensive. One to fix several problems with the bones on the foot and then a total ankle replacement. I'm very satisfied with Dr. Stoddard and am grateful to have help from a competent surgeon. He works hard to be able to help me and others with serious mobility issues caused by feet. He is also compassionate to his patients as we share our suffering. I can't ask for more.

My foot was shattered...a totally painful and useless block of wood that I had to drag around. Without Doctor Stoddard's expert help and intervention, I'd be in a wheelchair months ago. (Or I'd be an amputee.) Sometimes Dr. Stoddard gets a bit too busy and doesn't have the time to answer all my questions. Still, he is an excellent surgeon and I thank God above that I found him at exactly the right time! My new ankle is healing nicely after just 5 months and the swelling is way down. THANK YOU
