The office itself is a study in muted colors and can give you the impression it hasn't been redecorated in a while, which I would take off half a star for, but alas, I only have the option of one star and I'm not going to do that over his interior decorating. Honestly, the moment he starts asking questions it makes you feel way less weird to have someone fiddling around with your toes. He's friendly and was great about answering all my questions. We even got to chatting about hiking and cross-country skiing. I'm going back in a month for a check-in to make sure my new orthotics are working out fine, and I'm certain that if I have any more questions, he'll have a very thorough answer. Now if only I can work in a conversation about adding some pastels.

There's a real lack of reviews online for good podiatrists, and so I decided to share my experience to help others who may be experiencing anything foot or ankle related: I'm 27 and literally 10 days after my 27th birthday I fell over my dog and broke some tiny bones in my foot. Of course, I went to the hospital in pain and was told I was fine - no breaks. Then I went to my week follow up and was told I was "babying it" and needed to start walking on it. None of these docs had solid reviews online, so I blindly trusted them until my large toe went completely numb. The pain was awful! I went for a third and then fourth opinion and was ignored, told my foot was fine after X-ray review, and then sent for an MRI. Doctor #4 didn't explain what happened to me or what to do. He then wrapped my foot and said to stay off it and to make another appt (which took 3weeks to coordinate) all the while I had no idea what to do. In comes my boss who recommends Dr. Kania!! My first visit he clearly saw there was an issue with the foot. He reviewed my MRI and had me do a standing X-ray (where you could see more). He explained to me that it's hard to see the breaks because of the layers of bone in the foot. Standing for the X-ray allowed him to see one break clearly and the other somewhat clear. He put me in a soft cast, wrote me a note for Lollapalooza so I could still attend in a wheelchair (after nearly 2.5 months of suffering, I finally found a really awesome podiatrist) Dr. Kania worked with me for 2/3 months helping me find solutions to attend my friend's wedding, Lolla, and used laser therapy to help reduce pain and swelling in the foot. We met nearly weekly until the X-ray showed I was doing better. He was excellent at explaining the X-rays, all my options, and coming up with solutions! Even after I was doing better, Dr. Kania and his awesome office assistant, Christine, were always available via phone to answer questions I had. I cannot recommend them enough! My last visit was in January because of swelling after working out maybe a bit too hard and wearing bad shoes. Christine worked to get me into the office the same week and Dr. Kania examined my foot carefully, took an X-ray just to be sure all bones were still ok and then saw it was doing well but suggested better shoes/not over exerting until I felt better. As a runner, spin cyclist, hiker I love being active and this injury was not easy. Dr. Kania and the lovely Christine really helped turn things around for me! I didn't like being broken (no one does) but they truly made the experience manageable. I'm healed up pretty well now and I owe it to them! I can not recommend them enough, and I hope this review helps guide ppl that way!

I searched throughout my insurance network and this was the one podiatrist office that didn't complicate getting an appointment. I was able to get an appointment with only a short wait time. The office is located in a convenient location, it's right off Lincoln Ave and a block off Damen. There is a train stop, Irving Park, not to far from the office and several buses run near the office. It was easy to get to the office. During my visit I was paired with Dr. Heidi Hoffman, she is amazing! I arrived a few minutes before they opened and Dr. Heidi Hoffman allowed me to come in so I didn't have to wait outside. She was friendly and very educational. As I mentioned above, I came into the office for toe pain that was making it hard to use shoes. She listened to my issue and quickly noticed what could be causing the pain. She was able to give me a instant short-term pain relief and gathered whatever was needed for additional tests. She was also able to help me understand more things about my foot. After the appointment, I was updated roughly a week later about the results of the test and given instructions on how to deal with the continuous toe trauma that she discovered. It's been a few months and my toe barely aches when I put on shoes. I can press on the toe that had the issue and it doesn't hurt. It was the complete opposite a few short months ago. I would highly recommend coming to Lincoln Foot and Ankle Center for all of your needs.

Then a few days later called to say he ran my insurance and xyz is what would be covered for custom orthotics and asked when could I come in for measurements. It felt shady so I decided to go somewhere else. Then I went to Dr. Hoffman. She spent a lot of time with me. She took x-rays and went over them with me. We talked about my foot shape and what I should be looking for in a shoe. She recommended going to Fleet Feet for a (free) foot measurement and shoe consultation. She then made a conservative plan of treatment (better shoes, stretches, PT) that could be elevated to custom orthotics if this doesn't work. She diagnosed a nerve issue that can only really be treated by PT/form change while exercising (aka not orthotics). She was encouraging of PT ASAP because as I've had a baby this year...I've already hit my insurance out of pocket max. It's a small thing but just made me feel confident that she was looking out for my best interests. She also gave me personal anecdotes about her own experience with plantar fasciitis as it related to my own case that made me feel hopeful and like I won't be in pain forever. I really value feeling "cared for" by the medical professionals I see, and this is what I got from Dr. Hoffman.
