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.

I have to say that, I always check reviews. Dr Richter is one of the best. He listens, explains and is very caring. Wants the best for you.

Would highly recommend Dr. Richter. He is a miracle worker. Had a severe case of Achilles tendinitis and he has really helped alleviate my problem. My foot is feeling better than ever. I just picked up my new custom orthotics and can’t wait to try them.

I have had past issues with other places regarding my toe and there was always a problem. Got a referral here and I can't lie I was very anxious awaiting the procedure but it was over before I even knew it began. It was completely painless and one of the most smoothest appointments I have ever had. Thank you

I had a thorn stuck in my foot, the hospital told me it would naturally work its way out, after a week my foot gained a big bump with pus so I came to DR. Paul Richter podiatrist office who gave me a new routine ( 3 times a day apply a warm compress, antibiotics ointment) after day 4 the thorn did work its way out! Thank you guys so much!

Dr. Richter has been my Podiatrist for at least 15 years. He was recommended by my primary doctor because I was having problems following foot surgery performed by another doctor. Dr. Richter agreed that it was a correctable problem and took care of it. About nine months ago I again had foot surgery for another problem and I can honestly say it was done so well that I hardly remember there was a problem. Thank you Dr. Richter!

Today was my first visit to this practice. I am very happy that I came. The office is clean and well kept. The staff are very friendly & informed. Quite helpful as I was having balance problems & one member even made sure I got safely to my car. Dr. Richter is kind & caring & assured me that my toe was going to be fine & told me how to take care of it. I would feel good about referring family & friends to this office.??

I came in November for a toe fungus I've had for a couple of months. Dr. Richter recommended some options and decided to trust him and go with the best option. And 4 months later it's almost clear!! I AM SOOOOOOO HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS. Absolutely friendly staff! I love that the doctor is available on Saturdays. I am so happy I came to Doctor Richter.

Very nice, professional gentleman whose staff are very much user friendly. They called before the appointment as a reminder, something other Doctors staff couldn't be bothered to do. I think you will have a good overall experience with Dr. Richter, Sophia and the rest of his staff.

I would highly recommend Dr Richter to my family and friends. He made a believer out me after eliminating some very acute foot pain with some simple, painless, non-narcotic fixes. In response to my inquiry, I also greatly appreciated his recommendation on shoe selection for working out and running. with hundreds (if not thousands) of sports shoes on the market, it is not to have an expert explain some of the differences and those differences impact my feet with my arch, etc. 5 star doctor!
