After seeing Dr. WelIens briefly, she left and the assistant came into the room twice and I was told both times that because I had some several ongoing critical issues with my feet and toes, I should purchase an assortment of products from them (totaling over $600) that were supposedly not covered by my insurance, which is an excellent Blue Cross PPO policy. When I asked for more clarification, I was told to sign a form which stated that the only reason I wasn't proceeding with care is because of the cost. I was then instructed that there was no further care that was available and was shown the door.

I was able to find another foot doctor here in Lakeland and have made an appointment to see them next week. This was a bad experience and I will not return or advise others to come here for treatment.

I would not recommend Central Florida Foot and Ankle Center. Though they have performed several…read moreprevious surgeries on both of my Achilles, and other tendons, the results have not been as expected. Dr. Wellens performed a Tendoscopy on my left Achilles and perennial tendons, only to have to have another open surgery 12 months later because the surgery did not solve the issues. I still have pain following that surgery almost 1 1/2 years later. Do not get Amniox injections unless you have a few grand to throw away. They were not honest about what insurance would cover as I learned after. Their billing office is not great also. The last draw was when she said multiple times that I had a tear on my right Achilles following my MRI. I decided to go to another surgeon at LRMC for a second opinion. THERE WAS NO TEAR. I will not be going back. Unfortunately I should have done this a decade ago when I started going to them.

I scheduled a visit with Dr. Wellens on a recommendation from a friend. I had been experiencing…read moreworsening pain in the first joint of my big toe for about two years, and it had become so stiff that I couldn't bend it. This problem had started to take a toll on my active lifestyle: I had begun to dread long runs, I couldn't surf the same, and my pickleball game had gone downhill. Mentally, I was trying to accept this condition as part of growing older. Right off the bat, Dr. Wellens made me feel very comfortable and confident in her expertise. She examined my toe with X-Ray images and an ultrasound machine, discovering lots of bone spurs in the joint. She called my condition "turf toe," and told me I had a few different options for treatment. The one she recommended was shock wave therapy on the affected joint, along with an amniotic stem cell injection directly into the joint. The main drawback to this treatment was that it would cost $4,000, and my insurance would not cover it. After some deliberation, I decided to go ahead with the expensive treatment. Let me tell you: BEST DECISION EVER. I came back the following week for the first of three shock wave therapy sessions, and the stem cell injection. Dr. Wellens gave me a lidocaine shot in the affected joint, and the nurse administered shock wave therapy, which took about 5 minutes. She told me the shock wave therapy on my toe would cause major inflammation, and that my body would then send its resources to heal the area. She said it would also break up some of the bone spurs, and my toe would continue to heal for about 6 weeks. Immediately after the stem cell injection and first shock wave session, I could bend my big toe again. It was unbelievable. The doctor told me to take it easy at first, but I felt like running and jumping for joy. My toe was fixed! I couldn't believe it. I went back to the office for my remaining two shock wave therapy sessions, and my toe continued to gain mobility each time. After another ultrasound examination, Dr. Wellens concluded that 80% of my bone spurs are gone. I have absolutely no pain in my toe joint now, and I can bend it as much as I can bend the other one. I can even stand on my tippy toes.... Something I never would have dreamed possible. I am so grateful for the treatment I received from Dr. Wellens and her staff.... It was without a doubt WORTH EVERY PENNY!
