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.

Quick, Efficient, Nice
Dr. Couluris is a very nice doctor but his appts can be a bit quick/rushed feeling. He has compassion but the office feels a bit like its rushing to move patient through - fine if you have a common problem but not great if you need more time.

I cannot review the doctor or how my appointment went. After waiting more than 45 minutes in the office to be seen I left. I understand doctors get busy and run late but there was zero communication or consideration from the front staff letting me know anything. 6 patients left and no one was called back for over 15 mins and still I sat there. There are too many doctors to choose from to deal with this anywhere. I doubt the doctor will even be informed this happened.

On several occasions, Dr. Couluris has treated with competence and caring, various ailments with my feet, which included surgery on two occasions. With every encounter, Dr. Couluris has provided pleasant, caring attitude, and a full explanation of the procedure and objectives of care following the procedure. He knows how to elicit understanding by the patient, as well as fully explaining the patient’s role in aftercare and any and all anticipated follow up. Thanks, Dr. C!

I was having trouble with my ankle and for years had been seeking help from other podiatrists. They basically said I had arthritis and there was nothing I could do. When it became disabling I sought Dr. Couluris' help. He has been able to help me and I have regained use of my ankle. I will be forever grateful.

I saw Dr. Couluris today regarding a painful broken toe and ingrown toenails. Not only did he spend extra time to make sure that I was comfortable, he went above and beyond to ensure that my procedure was done as pain-free as possible. His sense of humor and his staff made what could have been a very difficult, painful, and unpleasant experience as easy as it could be. Thanks doc.

Dr Couluris was recommended to me by a friend who had him do her bunionectomy. He is energetic, friendly, & good at what he does. I have hyper flexibility issues so a different procedure was done on my feet. Left one done Nov 28/16; right = Mar 17/17 (still recovering). Couldn't be happier with the results; to think my right foot is now completely pain free for the 1st time in over 17 years is wonderful. Straightest incision, too, with a nearly invisible scar. Thanks Dr. C

Had foot pain for a month. Had an idea of what it was but went to Dr. Couluris to verify. He confirmed that I had planters fascitis. I felt rushed when I saw him. I told him that my foot only hurt when I stretched it. He decided to give me a shot anyway, without saying much and his assistant tried to sell me the boot. I guess when you have insurance they will sell you anything. I got the brochure on exercises and bought the foot insert. Doing better. In good health and exercise regularly.
