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.

Dr. good at first, but TERRIBLE LATER ON!
Dr. Melhuish was very good with my callous's, but in my opinion really messed up by having me wear a knee brace on my leg that other's in the foot care profession did not see the need for me to wear. When I removed the brace after about 3 months of wearing because it fell apart, for about 5 months my knee was in extreme pain. I I never needed the brace!

After years of dealing with a cycle of toenail issues, I’m so happy I finally found someone to help. Dr. Melhuish is excellent at what she does and created a long term plan to get my issues resolved. She is very caring and so knowledgeable, I’m so relieved to have found her. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

My right foot was fractured in two places and I was amazed at the regenerative treatment plan as an alternative to surgery. Dr. Melhuish utilized many state-of-the-art procedures with thoroughness and professional expertise. My fractures healed completely within just a few months. The entire staff was caring, very pleasant and helpful.

Dr Melhuis and her team welcomed me as a new patient. "Dr Vicki" listened and drew out a thoughtful course of treatment for my arthritic big toe joints. I'm glad to be in her care.

6 weeks after I figured that I had broken my little toe, I still could not wear shoes as the pain was too bad. I decided it was time to have it checked out and went to see Dr. Melhuish. Xrays showed that I had indeed broken it but since the pain was at the bottom of the toe and not higher where the break was, Dr. Melhuish determined that I had damaged the nerve. She suggested 6 to 8 laser treatments to heal it at a much faster rate. I was ready to do anything to stop the pain and be able to wear shoes again so I signed up for 6 treatments. Today was my last treatment and the pain is 98% gone and I am wearing shoes that aren't flip flops again! I would recommend Dr. Melhuish and laser treatments to anyone in a situation where it could help. Thank you Dr. Melhuish and staff!!

Bad experience - Only saw Dr. Melhuish once where she had an xray taken and prescribed a series of 10 laser treatments for my plantars fasciitis. She consistently over scheduled that treatment. 5 of first 7 treatments were 20+min late Cancelled the last 3 treatments because of late and reschedule issues. Have been waiting almost 3 weeks for my refund and copy of medical records.
