These guys got me out on the right foot! I have had pain in my right foot for years when I went in I found out that I have had a fracture in a bone for a very long time. Scheduling for the appointment was super easy, just a phone call and they got me in within the week. The nursing staff was friendly and very helpful. They assisted me with getting my footwear adjusted properly. Dr. Renier was very knowledgeable and was not afraid to share that knowledge with me. No matter how technical and even frustratingly common my questions were Dr. Renier answered them with joy in his voice. The conversations

Dr Nelson did an exceptional job as expected. She is professional, caring, and always receptive to any questions / concerns. Dr Nelson is a number#1 surgeon in my opinion based on the result of my January surgery on my left foot, and how I currently feel after my surgery three days ago on my right foot.
I had zero concerns with the surgery or recovery process. Once again, I was comforted by Dr Nelson taking the time to call me the night of the surgery to assure I was doing well and didn't have questions.
Thank you Dr Nelson!!

The entire experience was pleasant. I was well received, at the front desk, and the waiting room is comfortable and very clean. Everyone was friendly and attentive. The doctor was swift and thorough with his diagnosis. If you have options, for your treatment clinics this is one you should consider.

First time we had been to St. Cloud Foot and Ankle clinic. Very nice friendly staff and a wonderful doctor who engaged my 89 year old mother in his conversation about her treatment. The procedure went just as planned and follow up instructions were clear and manageable for the nursing home to continue care for my mom’s toe.
Highly recommend this clinic!

I waited in the lobby for 25 minutes after my appointed time when my chart was misplaced. Apology given as well as a Caribou gift card (I don’t drink coffee but will find something else there I am sure).
I am satisfied with the care I have received, having had bunion surgery on both feet. Doctor Patenaude has taken excellent care of me explaining everything well, although I should have recorded him at times since he is a fast talker.
Pleasant staff.

Doctor Ellis has helped me with several foot issues over the past 15 years and I trust his expertise totally. He listens to my concerns, talks with me about treatment options and follows through with me until my healing is complete. He is patient and spends time explaining things while making sure to answer all my questions.
I would certainly recommend Doctor Ellis to anyone who has any foot and ankle problems. He is an excellent doctor and certainly a very kind and cordial man.

This was my first visit to the Foot and Ankle center. I received a Prompt check-in and then shortly thereafter I was taken to an exam room. They did a few checks and the Doctor appeared and took care of my concern. She discussed her recommended medications and answered all of my questions. I felt comfortable and well attended to during my visit. I highly recommend them to anybody in the area who has a foot or ankle concern.
