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.

He delivered outstanding care in dealing with my in-grown toenails. His bedside manner was great. He was incredibly gracious with his care to the point where it felt were simply having a conversation about life and the appointment was done. If this is a procedure that you are needing, I would highly recommend Dr. Karthas to anyone based on my incredible experience and the relief I felt after the procedure.

I went to Dr. Karthas for a consult on my foot. I had bunions and hammer toe and arthritis in both my feet. I had one surgery done on the left foot and unfortunately the surgeon I chose was very old school. I thought that would be good but it was not. This time I chose Dr. Karthas who was referred to me by my rhuematologist Dr. Wu. We scheduled the surgery for March 5th 2020. It was right before covid shut down the world. I do not heal as quickly as normal patients due to the arthritis. The surgery was a success and my foot healed in about 12 weeks. I saw Dr. Karthas several times after surgery. The first visit was 5 days later. I was happy just to get to see the foot. The first surgery on the other foot was put in a cast. So that was horrible. I am thinking of having Dr. Karthas fix my other foot someday.

Never called my mother back regarding a billing question. She has made multiple calls, and staff seems to brush her off and pass the buck. She had a needed medical procedure and he billed as (non-medical). No interest in helping a 96 year old woman. She is stuck with a $400 bill. Shameful. Think twice about this practice!! At least they could call her back and correct the code.

Excellent Dr. that makes you feel comfortable and part of the process. He is knowledgeable,personable, thorough, and tells you what he will do before he does it. I would highly recommend him as a podiatrist
