She would remove the callouses but that would only be a short term remedy. I had surgery to correct the issue and the healing process is going well. On the way to no more toe pain.

I came to Dr Godoy for an injury I sustained in my foot . She was so personable and worked with me…read moreto get back to were I was . And let me say my injury was not the easiest to heal having a sesamoid fracture. I am now completely pain free and can continue my active life . She really is one of the best doctors and continues to call and check on me! So happy to have found her!

I had started to see Dr Kesler when he was in his prior Hamburg turnpike location for plantar…read morefasciitis and also some nerve pain, which he treated fine. Some time went by and I had a problem with an ingrown toenail and found he had moved locations. My first visit for the toe he cut part of the nail, but it didn't help much and came back worse than before. The subsequent visit he began to cut down the edge of the nail with no topical numbing and it was agony. I got up and left and he followed me out the door to the elevator wanting me to sign some release. I never went back. I fixed the ingrown nail myself by tucking a small piece of cotton under the edge for months...and it grew out just fine and never returned.

Went to Dr. Kesler because I was unable to walk after wearing a pair of high heels that I hadn't…read moreworn in a couple of years and after one night I was barely able to walk and was in extreme pain....I was actually afraid I broke something but apparently it was the start of a Taylor's bunion. He recommended no more 4"+ heels but I think I will just not wear that pair ever again. He gave me a shot of cortisone and I was back on my feet in a day! I highly recommend Dr. Kesler if you have any foot pain!

At best he is incompetent, at worst, he is a crook. He is probably a combination of the two. I…read morepicked him from my insurance book. I visited him in his home/office. he had no staff, and was answering the phones, taking insurance, and acting like a receptionist all by himself. I handed him my insurance card, and he wrote down my name and insurance number. He did not even have a photocopy machine. The first thing he said to me is, "you have giant feet, do need to have your shoes specially made? My shoe size is a 12 1/2- 13. Hardly giant, and it would be strange that a person who claimed to work with feet for a career would be so shocked by size 13 feet. He then told me he wanted operate on both of my feet. I declined, and went to NYU, where I saw an orthopedic foot surgeon, who told me that this was nonsense, I did not require any such foot surgery. Things only got worse with Simon from there. I began to get bills and threatening letters and phone calls from his billing/collection agency. This agency, was very dirty, just like Simon. They had no address listed, only a P.O. Box. They accused me of not having insurance, and threatened me with suit, and to ruin my credit. They claimed that I did not just owe him the contracted amount by the insurance, but I owed him his full rate, which was at least twice as much. I explained to them that I had insurance, and it must have been billed wrong. I asked the full name of their company, and their physical address, and their names. They refused to provide me with any of that. When I tried to look up this business to report them, I could not find them existing anywhere, except in their threatening calls and letters. They finally agreed to bill it again, and to no surprise, the insurance claimed that this was not a valid insurance number. They said "once may be a mistake, but on the second time, no mistake. You are lying about having insurance. Now you must pay us the full amount. This was accompanied by more threats of suit, ruining my credit, and again, they refused to give the full name of the company, nor their physical address. Neither Simon nor his thugs apparently entertained the possibility that the insurance number that he wrote down, was not what was printed on my card. I called his office several times, and left messages, but he did not return my calls. They continued to send me threatening letters. When I finally got ahold of him, he screamed at me, calling me a faker, and somehow claiming that I produced a counterfeit insurance card, instead of the simple answer that he wrote down the numbers wrong. So, we are left with podiatrist who was shocked to see a size 13 foot, wanted to do unnecessary surgery, did not even have a photocopy machine, cannot write down an insurance number correctly, and uses dirty collections to try to get even more money than he is entitled to, and screams at people who resist this fraudulent activity.

This is a follow-up review to the one I posted on 6/16/16. A few weeks after my visit I received…read morean invoice for $447.98 for items I never received nor did I order any of them. She charged me and the insurance company for Orthotics for my left and right foot, foot supports for my left and right foot, and ankle supports for my left and right foot. She also charged for ankle x-rays that really were not needed considering I was there for arthritis in my big toe. They also added in my $20.00 co-pay which I paid at the time of my visit. This case is now with the Special Investigating Unit of my insurance company. Stay far, far away from her!! find another doctor, and if you have gone to her check your invoice very carefully. She likes to bill for excess items.

The wait time for this office is beyond atrocious!! I had to wait over an hour from my appointment…read moretime to be seen. Plan ahead for extended wait times.
