Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Regret!
Bunion and hammer toe surgery, results for bunion were good. Hammer toe results were TERRIBLE! The pin Dr Ashdown put in my toe was at least an inch too long. I complained for two weeks that it felt like I was stepping on a nail, turns out I was! He pulled it out part way and cut off an inch of the metal with a wire cutter. The toe is hammered and stiff. Numb and tingling at night. I’m scheduling another surgery to fix with a different surgeon!! Office staff was very nice, they get the star. Do not let him operate on you!

LostIt
Nice office staff. Ease of making appt. Won't go back because the Dr cut my foot while shaving callus with the scalpel. Very painful and bleed like a stick pig thru the bandaid he applied.

Integrity Issues and terrible service
Terrible experience. They want to charge a dollar for a mask that is not even an n95 mask. They want you to sign to agree to pay out of pocket for procedures that you are not there to be seen for. The logic of having to pay for supplies like masks and gloves that should be considered the cost of doing business for the practice is insane. I’m sure the Dr. is a train wreck simply based on his front office staff and policies. Clearly some integrity issues.

Very Disappointed! Did not treat symptoms, lack of compassion and respect, and made my condition worse. Very opinionated.

The office staff were friendly and professional. The doctor was professional and friendly. He did a thorough assessment and treated my condition quickly and without pain. I would not hesitate to return for any future needs.

What a crappy office. The tacky, tilted decor came across more professional than Dr. Ashdown. Don't bother going to this place.
