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.

Hello! I am thankful and proud to support Dr. Reister and staff including Marci and Lesly. Upon entry to the comfortable waiting area I am always greeted with the smile of Marci who cares about me. I am able to efficiently take care of billing details with her while waiting to be seen. Sometimes there is even time to have a small chat about the goodness of life. I recognize that I am not their only patient even though I am made to feel that way. My scheduled appointment times have always been respected and honored. Next, Lesly opens the door to the waiting area and in a welcoming gesture leads me to my private examination room. She intelligently, compassionately and thoughtfully asks about the reason for my visit and enters notes into the computer. Again, I have the feeling that she cares. Finally I see the smile and hear the friendly voice of Dr. Reister. He is thoughtful, attentive and full of expert advice. I always feel confident after discussing and acting on his vast knowledge. I

Thank you Judy!

Dr Reister is ok. Front office staff was horrible. Ignored when walking in. Let me set for 30 minutes then tell me I should have "hollered" when I asked about it. The old lady is especially mean. Tells me I need to wait for the doctor before I pick up my prosthesis. The other lady had to correct her. Never going back there and would not recommend. There are plenty of good podiatrists around with office staff that know how to treat people.

Dr Reister was very patient with my very scared 12 year old when she needed her ingrown toenail treated. He did a great job and clearly knows his stuff. His office staff is extremely kind as well.

This is Marie B. I'm writing this on a friend's computer. I had a 10 AM appointment today with Dr. R. The staff was friendly and made me feel very comfortable. Dr. R was easy to talk to as I would talk to a friend. He answered all my questions and I didn't feel like I was rushed. Great appointment! Thank you!

I was a patient first & I brought my 14 year old daughter when she had an ingrown toenail. After a bad experience with another doctor she didn't want to get this one treated. I explained it when I made the appointment & when we came in everyone in the office was incredible & made sure she had a good visit. Dr. Reister was patient & very slowly numbed her toe to keep her pain free. He joked with her & worked at a speed she was comfortable with. He won us over with his compassion and skill.

I'd like to start by saying that this review is purely referring to the office staff I spoke with on the phone. I called to try and get an appointment for a foot wound I needed treated. The knowledge, friendliness and overall attitude of the staff I spoke with was incredible. She went above and beyond to get me the help I needed, and was even able to explain how the doctor would treat my injury when I saw him. Unfortunately I found out later that they were out of network with my insurance, but b

I came across Dr. Reister through a friend who heard about a 'toe problem' I had been experiencing for several years. I am pleased with the service I received from Dr. Reister and his team. He resolved the issue and it has not returned.
