The first thing I was told to do was file my infected toenails until they were as thin as other toenails. I partly filed one toenail, and then my back hurt, So I stopped. My back continue to hurt for a few days, so I went to a chiropractor, I sent her a message via Piedmont, my chart, asking if they could file the nails for me because it hurt my back so much, she did not reply. I called the main office and ask them to ask her to reply to my message, she still did not. My back was still hurting so I went to the chiropractor again in two weeks. They told me some stretches to do several times each day, and after I did them for about 10 days, my back felt a lot better. At that one appointment, they sold me special soap to use on my toenails and some liquid to paint on my toenails to clear up the infection, the cost was $60! Now I need to go to a different podiatrist, who may or may not want me to use that same liquid, so the $60 may just be lost.

Dr. Jimenez is a fantastic podiatrist and an equally wonderful person. We've had the pleasure of…read moregetting to know her outside the office with our daughters playing volleyball together so, when our daughter needed care and advice for a foot condition sustained during practice/play, it was a no-brainer to reach out and schedule some time for her to take a look. She was super nice, and very straightforward, explaining our daughter's condition and the options for treatment, depending on how it progresses over time. And absolutely no pressure to consider surgery anytime soon, if ever. Not to be overlooked, even though our daughter is a minor, Dr. Jimenez made sure to speak directly to her, acknowledging her role as the patient and ensuring that she felt seen and heard. That, in and of itself, means a lot. And I cannot say enough about just how awesome of a person she is beyond the clinical setting, too. Additionally, her office staff are equally kind and eager to assist. Everyone there, from front office administrative to back office clinical staff, came across as happy and enjoying their roles there and that speaks volumes about the provider(s) they work for and the environment they have cultivated. You really can't ask for a better provider and I would not hesitate to wholeheartedly recommend her to those in need of a podiatrist in the Athens and surrounding areas. Go into it understanding that medicine is complex and every patient's situation is unique, and you won't be disappointed.

I had to hobble my pregnant self, in the middle of 2020 Covid, to the nearest and most readily available foot doctor in the area. Of course it was Dr. Phelps's office and now I know why. For starters, he has terrible bedside manner. Not understanding, very dismissive. The man told me two of my toes weren't moving because it was "in my mind" and that where I hurt my foot wouldn't cause that. Well I have news for him, those two toes on the end of my foot still don't bend with the rest of my toes. He talked to me like I was an idiot. I'm a 32 year old mother of 3 with advanced degrees. I am most assuredly not an idiot. Never mind it was very early into Covid, and I was very pregnant. Some sympathy and kindness would have been nice. The office staff were all very friendly; I will give them that. Well now here we are THREE YEARS LATER and I find out I've been sent to collections for a bill I paid IN FULL THREE YEARS AGO. I have the proof for the exact amount on my checking account. Unbelievable. So now I get to deal with the collections agency and dispute this for my credit record and I paid it when we received the bill THREE YEARS AGO. The kicker is I can't even call their office today to let them know how mad I am because they close at 1p for the day Absolutely do not ever go to this office. I see a recent claim on Google that they apparently hand out gift cards for good reviews, so don't believe the ones you see.

By the time someone answered, I was thinking I do not want to go through this to make an appointment in the future. The woman who answered was pleasant. I asked her if she were at the local office or at a centralized location. She told me the latter. I told her why I started my calling process and why I decided I was not going to be making an appointment. I asked her if there was anyone she could pass my comments on to. She was silent. Then I told I would just make a review such as this that I am doing now.
