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.

Very good at his profession
Over 10 years ago DR. Hotchkiss helped me. He had tailor made orthotic foot supports made for me. My wearing of his custom orthotic supports have greatly improved my ability to walk without pain.

My daughter's visit
Dr. Hotchkiss was extremely pleasant and knowledgeable. He was able to bring clarity and get my daughter the immediate care she needed. He built rapport right away and we truly enjoyed meeting with him. I appreciated his expertise, it was obvious right away that he's been doing this for years. The staff was also friendly and patient! Thank you!

After being a patient of Dr. Larry Hotchkiss for several years, I am very disappointed in the way I was treated. I was 2 minutes late for my appointment when I was called and told I'd have to re-schedule. I was in the parking lot! I've never been late before and you treat me like this? Then you won't return my call? There are too many doctors to choose from to be treated like garbage by one.

I felt like he was just phoning it in. He came into the office looking tired and bored; wrapped my foot up even though it wasn't necessary and said he had to in order to get insurance to pay. Then charged me copays for every visit, even if I was just picking up orthotics which had been in for repair. Wanted me to schedule an appt with the doctor (for another copay and insurance bill) to drop off orthotics which were brand new and squeaking. The whole thing is ridiculous.
