I've been to Coastal Orthopedic for two different reasons…read more The first was tennis elbow which they took care of and I haven't had a problem or any pain since! it's been about 2-2 1/2 years. Dr. Merlin was awesome! My second time was for my knee, torn meniscus. I had it repaired and had no problem so far (2 days will be a month since the surgery) with the surgery. It's healed great, minimal pain and bruising. Still going to PT and will be out of work for another month but no complaints about any of it!! Dr. Schyeler was amazing! He wasn't even sure he'd be able to repair it because it was so bad, but he did!!!! Thank you Coastal Orthopedic for all you guys do!!

They called me back at 2:55,. I told them we should be there in about 10/15 minutes. Office person said if you are 10 minutes late we will have to reschedule. I begged her. She said well let's see. We got to the building at 3:05. I ran into building and asked front desk 208 podiatry. He gave me directions. Got to where he said. Guess what no podiatry in this building. Next one over. Called them at 312 and said we went to wrong building. She said well it's too late. We will have to reschedule. I told her I had already pre-registered. Sorry too late. So ridiculous. I am sure I probably would still be sitting in waiting room if I had been on time. Things happen. I do not know what the drs are like but their office people have no empathy.

We have only dealt with Dr Allara and Dr Yoon over the last 25+ years. My wife has very complicated…read morehealth issues Drs Allara and Yoon have taken the time and effort to become familiar with these issues. I usually don't care for the way most doctors treat patients but Allara and Yoon are exceptional, they actually treat patients as patients not numbers. My wife and I have had horrible experiences with medical professionals but never have we had one complaint with Allara and Yoon. These guys understand that all patients are not the same. They understand that what is normal for one patient is not necessarily normal for another. They actually put some thought into your problems instead of just running down a check list. At one time I thought proper medical treatment was no existent North of Boston but after 25+ years of dealing with MFM Health I know that good health care can be found.

I feel compelled to write this review and warn the community after just completing an extremely…read morebizarre and unprofessional job interview process. I want to preface my review by explicitly stating that I fully understand MFM's mission of bringing accessible and coordinated care to the local setting. However, it appears as though MFM is expanding very rapidly and their operations cannot keep pace, which has downstream effects on both care quality and observable culture, which they are apparently trying to resolve through hiring instead of addressing the root causes of these issues. I applied for two positions at MFM Health. I will keep identifying details confidential to protect the privacy of those involved. For the first position I applied to, I was contacted by the hiring manager via a "Do Not Reply" email. She provided a phone number and asked me to call to set up an interview. I was unsure why the interview arrangements could not be worked out over email, but I nevertheless called the number only to find out that it was not a direct line. I called this number several times and was never able to reach the hiring manager despite a valiant attempt. Many negative reviews of this practice state it is difficult to contact staff by phone, I would say this assessment is accurate. When I was contacted about the second position, I was excited to find out that it was in a specialty department that I had several years of experience in on top of my 10+ years of relevant experience. One of the things I immediately noticed was that staff availability for interviews was limited, and, for the most part, they told you when you would be coming in. I understand that healthcare and volume are synonymous these days, but some flexibility would have been appreciated to allow me to prepare adequately. The screening interview was uneventful, but things became a bit strange during the in-person interview. As such, the supervising physician bluntly told me they are "very burned out" and cannot handle their patient load yet "they keep sending me more." I asked if any continuing education opportunities are offered and I was told no. This concerns me as organizations that do not invest in the growth and development of their staff typically experience high turnover and low morale. Despite these oddities, the hiring manager assured me that the team in fact, was impressed by my background and did appear to like me. However, the next day, I was abruptly informed that I would have to do another interview and was given only a day to prepare. Given that the staff had endorsed such strong feelings of burnout during the previous interview, I decided a morale boost may be appropriate. I purchased some healthy snacks and cold beverages and brought them to the second interview. I also included two handwritten and personalized thank-you cards for the clinical team. On the day of this next interview, I arrived with my snacks and drinks in tow. I was shown to the conference room where I set everything up. I was informed that the hiring manager would not be present for the meeting as the interview was scheduled last minute in the middle of their workday. Here is the crux of my review: I met with two stone-faced support staff members who made no attempts to reciprocate my efforts to engage with them. One staffer was engrossed in his laptop and barely participated. The other staffer asked me a handful of inappropriate questions with largely subjective answers that depended on training. After about ten minutes of awkward questioning, I was dismissed, without any expression of thanks for the snacks/drinks, which were left unopened and untouched on the table. There was no follow-up from the hiring manager. After the interview, I reached out to the hiring team to share some additional information about my background that we did not have time to cover in the interviews. I did not receive a response. Two days later, I received a rejection letter stating I was "not a strong enough candidate," despite having co-authored a paper in the field.

I did not have a podiatrist, I called my PCP for a recommendation. He referred me to Dr Richard Eisner. I called his office. the staff was very understanding and accommodating.

Dr. Eisner is extremely thorough, gentile and informative. An expert in his field. I have been to many podiatrist over the years and he is the best.

I went to Dr. Jewett in June 2015, because I had residual pain after having a neuromectomy in July…read more2014. He mis-diagnosed me with a neuroma, and in spite of me having several unsuccessful cortisone shots in this foot and that there was no evidence of a neuroma in my mri, he felt that another injection was a good idea. Against my better judgement, I went ahead with his suggestion, & as a result can't walk without pain (4 months after the injection). 4 years of foot school & the only diagnosis he can come up with is a neuroma. I have tried to call the office to discuss this, and the office manager is offensive & rude. She told me that I had already taken enough of his time, and that usually patients come in and leave and their problem is fixed. Dr. Jewett also mentioned to me that he took 45 minutes with me, for a 15 minute appointment. It then became clear to me, why he was so quick to give me a cortisone injection. Dr. Jewett wanted to go back in to surgically remove a neuroma that is not even there! It is one of his very few bags of tricks & he wanted me out of there quickly as I had already taken up too much of his time. After going to other doctors, it looks like I have a plantar plate tear & the injection made it significantly worse. His hastiness in diagnosing (mis-diagnosing) me is clear. Dr. Jewett is not a good doctor. Had he taken more time to listen, consider my history, & look at the MRI, this terrible situation could have been avoided. I hate to write a negative reviews, but hopefully this will prevent someone else from having a similar situation with this doctor. Bottom line- avoid the factory docs like this one & cortisone injections.
