Called to see this podiatrist and everything was pleasant on the phone until Becky asked about my insurance. I told her ambetter and she responded with "we don't take those kinds of insurance". I asked what kinds were those and she replied with "Obamacare or I mean Bidencare". I explained that my job doesn't offer insurance and the only place for me to get insurance was the marketplace. But by her tone you could tell she holds some type of opinion towards people that have marketplace insurance. I would assume by the way she spoke to me at this point her opinion would be lesser of anyone that has

I had 2 visits here & Doctor & staff treated me awesome. I got there early both times & was taken back & seen right away. Doctor Wittock listened to me with compassion & took his time. He is very knowledgeable & helped me to solve my issues. After 2 visits I feel I am on the road to recovery, which as a runner am relieved. If I have any more problems I will definitely go back.

Then I could have my husband fax copies of her card and current ID to the office before we arrived. I also offered to have them call her primary care physician to verify insurance. Additionally

I used to like this office until my most recent experience. First, I had to call back six times to get an appointment. I left several messages trying to get in. Finally, I was lucky enough to get someone to answer, and made the appointment. We showed up to the appointment but forgot our insurance card. I didn't think it would be huge deal, because we were recently there with all of our info the being the same. The nurse behind the desk told us that they couldn't see us without the insurance card on hand, even though they had everything they needed on file. I offered to have someone bring the card
