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.

Not a good experience at the Elkton office
I waited a long time to write this. I sincerely hope things have improved. The waiting room and office were both really dirty. I was nervous as I wasn’t sure his instruments were sterile. he worked on my toenails and did way more harm than good, he was no help at all. I hate to write a bad review, but I feel like I would want to know if this happened to someone else

Highly recommend!!
I was having an issue with my foot and called Dr. Velotti back in October. I had never been to a podiatrist before, and he was amazing. I was able to get in immediately and he took care of the problem I originally went for. While I was there, I had a question about something else and he looked at that problem as well and treated it. He explained everything that he was doing and what was going on. He answered any questions that I had. He took his time with me, I never felt rushed which is huge now a days. He answers his own phone, which was nice. He is also a very funny man with a great personality. I will continue to go back to Dr. Velotti and will recommend him to all of my family and friends. Dr. Velotti really is an amazing doctor!

I had excruciating foot pain. Dr. Velotti answered the phone personally, and got me in to see him within the hour. He listened to me, answered all of my questions, explained and treated my condition. He was very nice and personable, and was careful not to cause additional pain while giving me the cortisone injections. The world would be wonderful if a lot more physicians took time and care like Dr. Velotti! Thank you Dr. Velotti!!!

Giving this guy 1 star is being generous! I showed up to my first appointment, and the first thing he says as soon as I walk in is that he needs me to leave a credit card on file for the deductible. He's never seen me and doesn't even know what insurance I have, I walked in and he immediately asked for a CC! I tell him my plan doesn't have a deductible, which he would know if he took my card, and he told me to give him the credit card or go find someone else. Rude and unprofessional

Awesome doctor! Called on a Saturday and left a voicemail in hopes to get a call back on Monday regarding an appointment for my son with an ingrown toenail. The doctor called me back HIMSELF the same day and opened his office just for him to look at his toe and removed the ingrown toenail at the same appointment. Definitely recommend!!!!
