Wonderful experience! Very friendly and efficient staff. Dr. Urteaga was very caring and listened to my concerns. He then gave me choices in my treatment.
He gave me instructions about follow up maintenance to hopefully prevent the problem again. The office is centrally located with plenty of parking in the back.
Highly recommended!

My husband has been a patient for about 10 years. Diabetic wounds, calluses, and recently surgery resulting in amputation. Dr Alex has been patient, honest and always straightforward with his diagnosis and treatments. He has never made my husband feel degraded for not being able to adhere to treatment protocols to the letter. He did everything he could to minimize the leg loss. Once we knew we could not save the foot, Dr Urteaga recommended a surgeon and still came to visit in hospital after the surgeries. Highly recommend ALL the staff here. Wonderful people.

I had a severe ankle break while out of town. They fit me in the same day I got back to town. Although the Dr. was booked on his normal surgery day they were able to get me in on Wednesday first thing in the morning. Everything was explained in detailed and all questions were answered. I feel as if I’m in great hands.

I cut my achilles tendon in half and then shuffled around for 2 months uncomfortably because my wife and I had trips planned during the summer. I got the name of a doctor in San Antonio who was supposed to be good. I called and set up an appointment for a month later. I looked up Urteaga and read the reviews that were either great or there were scheduling and front office problems. I decided to call because I did not want to go to San Antonio several times if I could help it. I figured I would take a chance and see about attitude and schedule.
The receptionist was amazing and worked me in two

This was my first visit and I was very pleased with the service I received. They took me in right away, they went into great detail with what was going on with my ankle. They requested that I provide them with the original X-rays as well as the original report just in case we might need those with further evaluations and requests for Social Security. Couldn’t have asked for better service. Thank you!

Dr. Urteaga has treated me several times in the last 5 or 6 years, and my husband as well, and we have been so pleased. He takes very good care of us, and we feel like we are well-informed in making decisions when we have treatment options to consider. We have never felt pressured to resort to surgery when other less invasion treatment is possible.

Excellent doctor! Dr. Urteaga is Knowledgeable and professional. He takes the time to explain everything concerning your visit thoroughly. I originally sought treatment for a sports injury. I was so impressed with the quality of care I received, I returned for orthotics. The staff is friendly and efficient. Look no further for a highly trained foot and ankle specialist.
