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 seen him for 3 years now. Am a diabetic and I trust Dr Childers with my feet. He is honest and very nice. His wife saw me one time & I also like her.

After two surgeries my mom was left with a pain on her toe and his solution is to cut her toes off. Avoid Dr. Childers for surgeries.

I was having lots of pain in my left foot. After properly diagnosing my condition, he performed surgery. He was very honest and open when discussing my care. His staff is very professional and courteous. It was like having a conversation with a friend. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is having problems with their feet. I will return to him on the future if the situation warrants it.

I have been seeing DR.Childers for quite a few months now. I have to say this man is absolutely amazing From the moment I met him, I KNEW he was the Dr for me. Before I have been through 5 surgeries after a wreck, with another DR. I had a fusion and bone graft surgery yesterday, and He was absolutely amazing. He was all about saving everything he could with my ankle. IF YOU need a foot doctor THIS man is all you need. Best bedside manner, an he truly compassionately care about his patients! TY
