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 had a infection in my toe, he numbed it and lanced it but didn’t lance the whole area, on my second visit right before I was leaving, he said to come back if I wanted the lower part done. What the heck? He should have done it all the first time. I was charged in full, had to go through the numbing shots and he didn’t even do it all? Why? So I could pay 2 times? I would not recommend a doctor like this. Also, Dr. Carter’s office requires you to pay upfront and then files insurance and makes you either receive a credit for their office or call them and wait months to get a refund.

I am so happy since my visit with Dr. Carter. I woke up in the middle of the night with nagging pain in my toe. By morning, I could hardly put any pressure on it or walk. I called his office and they got me in that morning. He immediately diagnosed my problem and within minutes I was having a procedure. I left there PAIN FREE. He was very professional and his staff was awesome!! I highly recommend this office!!!

So thankful for the staff at Georgia Foot & Ankle! We were able to get in right away for an appointment and Dr Carter was quick to diagnose the problem my son was having. After treatment and a short rehab, my son was back on the court to finish his senior year!! ??

If it was an option I'd give NO Stars! I think dr. Carter is rude! Why make a woman leave your office in tears because you couldn't stop going on about her weight when she's only there to see you about an ingrown toenail! I don't think he should tell someone how much weight they should lose and how you'll feel like a brand new woman if you would lose x amount of pounds and on and on.... May I add all his rude out of line weight comments were made immediately after introducing himself!

The entire doctor's visit was wonderful! I was referred by my primary doctor to this office. From the front desk to the nurse that got me started to Dr. Carter, they were all great. I wish I had gone 8 weeks earlier for my ingrown toe nail. I have really suffered and now that pain is gone. Thank you SO MUCH Dr. Carter! You are a God send!!
