Best care anywhere. Outstanding bedside manner & follow-up to ensure recovery is going as expected and you're doing your part. (Yes, YOU play a role in your recovery, and Doctor is going to know if you're fibbing.) Can't recommend these folks more. read more

I just called twice and their phone system sucks! It has you participate in a survey and then it hangs up on you. You can't even schedule an appointment or ask anyone a question. read more

They are impossible to get hold of, they lie and they are taking money that doesn't belong to them. Charged my wife for services even though she'd been in the hospital! Said they would return my call, but nothing. TERRIBLE customer service read more

It took me a while to figure out how to create a yelp account but I want to write review because I thought it was important to know how your male staff treat the ladies in the office.while I was at my appointment on last week the male coworker was rudely speaking to all his employees and using foul language and I was able to hear it while I was in my room , this just was just overall just not behavior you should be having in a professional setting the care I was given was great love the dr au but your male staff horribly rude I never knew a man can speak to his fellow workers like that very disappointing. And I'm reading the old reviews and it seems this behavior must be aloud cause there has no been Cambio. read more

Their billing department is the worst. I will never use Upperline Health and will deter anyone from ever using them ever again. I've called their billing department hundreds of times, they don't pick up, they don't return voicemails, and they don't do what they say they are going to do. Worst customer service ever. I hope they are ashamed of themselves. read more

It's my first "appointment" here and already I'm not impressed. It is 9:46am my appointment was at 9am. When I got here there were only 2 gentlemen waiting I was asked to fill out paperwork as I did that a few others checked in. It didn't take me long to fill out the paperwork yet around 5 people were called in who showed up after me. What's the point of making an appointment? I wasn't even first come first serve. It is now 9:50... I could give this place some grace if the girl working the check in was at least kind welcoming and polite but she was absolutely not. read more

First time patient and won't come back. I showed up 15 mins early for my appointment at 9am. And they didn't take me in until 9:42 even though there was only 2 other patients in the waiting room with me at 8:45am. After that I kept seeing more patients came in after me but got helped before me. I went to ask the front girl and she said those patients are for a different doctor. When I finally called in the room, Doctor was rushed on me and spent less than 3 mins and rushed out. She told me to go home and wait for the insurance to approve the X-ray order she requested for me. And no one went into the room to lead me out of the exit. I was like a lost patient wandering around looking for the exit. As soon as I left the office, I called my PCP to request a referral to a different doctor, Dr Eugene Cheng. The experience with Dr Cheng is way more pleasant and better. He has a very good bed side manner and spent time to explain and answer all my questions. And he could order me an X-ray which I took on the same day after seeing him. Oh Upperline health didn't call me until 4 weeks later to say that my X-ray was approved by my insurance..smh I would not recommend this place. read more

Waiting period is full/ there is no Covid in this facility + after one month waiting they gave me with different doctor + Dr Desantis did the surgery. They are having a rude reception! There is no list of Doctor on the wall or doors + no cards. read more

Horrible! Waited 1 hour 30 minutes past my appointment time and still waiting. No update from the front desk. Was told to just wait.

I had come with a friend of mine for an appointment a while back and I overheard an employee being extremely rude to a fellow coworker and talking down to them. I was appalled by the behavior. I told my friend about the experience and they told me that they remember the scheduler who was being treated disrespectfully as a sweet caring and hardworking young lady but I don't know if she is still there or not. This place needs to train their employees better on how to behave towards a fellow coworker I was appalled by what I saw! read more

I saw the reviews about the wait being horrible and the office staff not being friendly so I was a bit nervous but the front desk girl was super nice! And I waited maybe 5 minutes before getting called into see the dr. Dr DeSantis was very nice and listened to my concerns and we came up with a game plan. read more

My mom had surgery on her foot almost 1 month ago. Prior to the surgery she was walking around Universal Studios. Now she is in constant 8-10/10 pain. Cries and cries everywhere because of the pain. Did she get pain meds? No. How about physical therapy? No. Well surely she needed the surgery? If she was walking around previously and now is not; this surgery was pushed for the financial greed of the podiatrist. In this case this is maleficence. "Do no harm" to your patients. This is 100% grounds for a lawsuit as they have physically and emotionally damaged the patient. She has had several visits back to the office post-surgery. What did they do? Take off the wrap, put on a new wrap. Bye bye. Schedule another visit in a week. Same thing. Wrap on. Wrap off. Bye bye. On top of that they will shuffle you between doctors of the practice so not even the same doctor sees you. What have they done? Absolutely nothing. Run Forest RUN!!! Run as far away from this practice and these hacks of a doctor. Not only does the customer service suck, but the actual care by these "doctors" is sub-standard. You are better off seeing the Chinese medicine doctor on the street. Not joking. read more

I went to this office because I had broken 2 bones in my foot. I received decent care and the staff was friendly. I am giving this place one star for what happened after my appointments with the doctor. I was given a boot to walk in for the next few weeks. Recently, I received a bill for the boot. They charged me $ 484.00 for the L4361 Walking boot. That same exact boot retails at under $50 on amazon. I spoke to the staff about my boot. After talking with the same people that seemed so kind at first, I learned that I had been scammed out of over 400 dollars. This is not simple overcharging, this is fraud and thievery. They refused to refund me the extra money I had given them and failed to apologize. Please be careful about going to this location in the future. read more

Waited for over 1hr 15 min. to finally be seen by a Doctor. Young Dr...I forget his name...knew his stuff but was rude and impatient. NEVER AGAIN!!! read more

Got here at 917am. Waited an hour just to be seen. New patient and I will not go back. And I was the only patient there. Not sure why it took so long. I pretty much got up and told them I had to go after I saw the Dr. I definitely won't go there again. read more

This place is HORRIBLE. From the office staff to some of the nurses. I'm waiting sometimes upto an hour past my appt times. They are money hungry. On my first visit absolutely nothing was done for me and they still charged my $50 copay and aren't willing to work anything out with you. Communication is horrible. My ins got cut off since I was out of work for over 12 weeks so I because a cash payment, since let's be honest cobra is so unaffordable, and I told them nothing more than just the visit to check my ankle. The dr told me the xrays were part of the office visit price so I let them do it. Come to find out there were trying to charge me for the X-ray! As soon as my ankle is completely healed I will def not be coming back to this place. I will find another dr and get another referral. read more

This is an insurance scam posing as a foot doctor. Here is how the scam works. They submit a huge bill to your insurance company. That bill is denied by your provider. You however are still responsible for your portion. Which is a percentage of the overall bill. So, what would have normally been just a small co-pay turns out to be $250. You can't dispute it because, ultimately the patient is responsible for any billing. Also, your provider won't get involved because they denied the claim. I saw the doctor for 5min. He rushed in and out and I left disappointed. A little while later I got the bill and called for an explanation. They don't answer the billing line. I did finally speak with someone, and I could tell the person I spoke with deals with calls just like mine all day long. You have been warned! read more

This office went downhill. My PCP referred me to Dr DeSantis a few years ago and he was great. I was referred back earlier this year and unfortunately I saw another Dr. Dr Patel is the worst. He has no bedside manner. He didn't take my condition seriously even though I followed his treatment and recommendations and there are X-rays to show my condition. He seems very disinterested and uncaring. I saw him several times and it's been an unpleasant experience each time. Today was the straw that broke the camel's back and I called my insurance to file a complaint against him. The office is also disorganized. It took 5-6 messages over the course of 4 days so that I could speak to someone. I don't know what happened to the efficient running office and the caring Dr DeSantis that was there before. read more

I have given this facility two tries and both times I've been disappointed. The office is very unorganized, always running late and referrals aren't completed in a timely manner. My son saw two different podiatrist. Dr. DeSantis was the second one and said my son was misdiagnosed with an old people's disease. He did order an MRI which took 6 weeks to get scheduled. On the day of the appointment for his results his staff calls me at 1:30pm to let me know he was in a conference and no available appts until 3 weeks. Our appt was at 3pm. I missed work for nothing. This was very inconsiderate. We are never going back. read more

I have come in to see Dr. De Santis several times. He's cheerful and confident which makes the patient feel confident. He took x-rays to determine the problem and shortly he removed my two big toe nails and I couldn't sleep the night before out of worry. But he removed them with no trouble and its been 6 days and still no pain. When he's in both his Newport office and Orange office they both move swiftly and professionally. I highly recommend Dr. De Santis. read more

I have been leaving messages and calling for my son's MRI with the radiology dept. but they haven't returned any of the messages to neither of us and now I found out that the contact on yelp is no longer in service. read more

This clinic charge me 500.00 for orthotics that I can't pick up in this crazy season we are in and refuse to refund any of the 500.00. I told them that I understand they needed to paid for the product but the rest I think should be refunded back to me. Very unprofessional staff the 2 times I have been there. Very rude and just question the person who referred me. read more

Worst practice ever! I have had an unknown problem with my foot for over a month now. I saw one doctor here who saw me for a total of two minutes and did not even touch my foot. Had a second opinion from another doctor here and he saw me for a total of three minutes. Both doctors were very cold and I got herded in and out like a cow! If I weren't so anxious to get the results from my MRI, I would definitely change practices. I do not recommend coming here!!! read more

I take my daughter here for ingrown toe problems. Dr de santes is very nice. Very fast talking and working. So he's in And out quick but Very nice and informative. Has a cheery demeanor. Had to see dr hewlitt and he was a nice dr too! Really funny. I think it. Helped with my girls anxiety wondering if she had an infection. Easy to talk to. Which helps when your seeing another dr you don't know. Made you feel like you were always his patient. Love Lucy she is the receptionist who is bright and cheery. Great person to greet you with a smile on her face even when it's busy! read more

Please don't go to this clinic. I was tired of the pain of ingrown toenails so I had Dr. Negron remove my big toenails. They were supposed to grow back relatively normally, although smaller, but they didn't. (It's been over a year now.) Also, when I went back a week after the procedure to have him look at my toes, which I believed were infected, he took off ONE bandaid, and declared they were not infected. About three days later I went to urgent care. They were infected, and I needed to take antibiotics. I can only surmise this doctor's philosophy is get them in and out as quickly as possible and collect the insurance money. I'm still sorry I went to this clinic. Please find another one if you want to see a podiatrist. read more

I was referred to Dr. Negron for a cyst on my foot. After an MRI, we decided to remove a cyst because it was painful. The surgery was scheduled in a matter of weeks, and only took approximately one hour. I've seen Dr. Negron four times and want to say what an excellent physician he is. He is kind and compassionate, a great communicator, and generally runs on time. At one appointment, I had to wait 30 minutes, and he immediately apologized upon entering the room (having visited numerous doctors over the past 15 years, I have never had a doctor apologize for being late... that really meant a lot to me!) I will say that the office is undergoing a comprehensive remodel and it is presently approximately halfway completed. As such, it's a little dingy and dusty, but I'm sure it will be beautiful when it's complete. I'm just grateful that they are continuing to see patients while they are remodeling because I would've lost out on an excellent physician if I had judged him solely on the condition of the office. I highly encourage you to see Dr. Negron if you have any issues with your feet. read more

If I could give no stars I would. The workers are not people persons. Very rude and unorganized office. Office itself is a disaster and under construction i can't believe they can still see patients. I'm shocked this facility is part of Blue Shield network. Don't go here if you want speedy appointment. They told me 3:45 was last appt they take and left waiting 45 minutes. Never again! read more

Been here over an hour and still haven't been called back. The staff double book appointments and there is one Doctor. This waiting room is packed, the TV isn't working and 5o top it off the waiting room is so hot. Put the air on!!!!!! read more

My some and daughter saw Dr De Santis years ago. He was great. Now that they've gone under a new group it's just awful! First time there it took over an hour but Dr Patel did what was needed. Second time...still waiting for dr. It's been 45 minutes. If you value your time, don't come here. I don't understand why MD offices book appointments if they can't keep the time. Very annoying and inconsiderate. read more

Dr. Jeffrey Desantis and Dr. Howard Hewlett are both great doctors. They both have attended to my elderly mother in a caring compassionate manner. Both doctors and staff have always created a relaxed environment for her. My mother gets her toenails trimmed every two months. She always looks forward to her appointments. Outstanding care. read more

Be careful the doctors tell you that you're insurance is paying for a 2 sets of inserts as a pair, then after billing insurance for over $1200 in simple making molds of my flat feet and me paying out of packet over $300 ... I go to pick up my second set and find out that they give me wrong information and want $270 more. After I tell them forget it that's not what you said they tell me to bad we made them and you either pay or we send you to collection. Unbelievable, and I wonder what happens to all the orderly people that got to them?? Don't go!!! Find abetter places where you can trust your doctors word. read more

I find the doctors in this company to be excellent. As far as the other staff in the Orange location however, they are unhelpful and sometimes just unpleasant. There are times when it is obvious that they are not interested in being helpful in any way, shape or form, even in a critical situation. One exception is Marisol, she is always caring and helpful. The others are apparently just there for a paycheck. read more

Great place. Dr Hewlitt and Dr Wilson are the best! The two girls that are up front (Ivy and Michelle) are very sweet and made me feel warm and welcome. They treated me like I was family and seemed to love their job. Also whoever is responsible for the decorating is amazing. I love the different holiday celebrations! However, I almost wasn't going to return to Cambridge due to a past horrible experience with one of the girls there (Marlene). She was so rude and miserable and had such a fowl mouth it was a shame. I only returned because I heard she was no longer there and I just adore the rest of the staff. As long as they don't hire anyone like Marlene ever again I will stay a patient at Cambridge! read more

I had surgery scheduled for both my feet, and was just informed my doctor lost his operating room privileges. I dodged a bullet there.

I've been trying to schedule an appointment for weeks, I call and leave voicemails. I have also emailed them and my primary doctor has even tried calling several times to schedule. No response in three weeks. I haven't even been there and I'm dissapointed already. read more

The staff at Cambridge Foot and ankle need some serious patient communication training. They need to realize patients have various responsibility during the day that go beyond waiting an hour past their appointment time to be seen. It would be appreciated if they let waiting patients know the doctor is running behind. read more

cant believe we didn't make a review for here yet oh my.. several years back the better half needed a bone spur addressed and the recommended specialist was Dr DeSantis of Cambridge Foot and Ankle. Dr DeSantis explained everything, handled the surgery, and she has seen him for follow ups regularly since. The Cambridge team has taken GREAT care of her over the years and have been outstanding at maintaining and being proactive about her foot care. Since she is a diabetic it is vital that she be very attentive to her lower extremities and I have complete confidence in the Cambridge team. Thank you for taking great care of her! read more

Had a very frustrating experience tryin to obtain diabetic shoes my primary doctor's order was lost twice. The office been under remodeling for two years. I have had 4 different doctors over short period. The final straw was when the impressions for insoles and order for shoes were lost. At this point all the required paperwork for Medicare had expired. Upon discussing the situation with the office manager she suggested that I dreamed that I had had impressions and ordered shoes because the couldn't be found. It was not the fault of anyone in the office. I will never return. read more

Dr Jones and his staff are like God sent angels!!! I've been dealing with increasing worsening foot pain and within the first visit he nailed getting me the much needed relief to 1 of my many health issues. Bless him for his specialty training and outstanding practice. From the kind and warm patient care, to precise and prompt treatments; they're truly the best I've been to in a long time. I realize my insurance may not be considered the best but they made me feel like I was listened to and cared for, which means the world to me. thank you read more
