"Appointment time was 9:40 but signed in at 9:13. FINALLY got called back about 10:06. It’s now 10:37 & we are still waiting on the doctor."

"Went there at 8:30am Jan 10th to have an Authorization to Work Form filled out on behalf of my employer for arthritis. They told me the form didn’t really apply to me because my appointment was not that serious as it wasn’t for an injury, however my employer needed the form for me to continue work. I went back to my employer to inform them that this office said the form didn’t apply for not being serious enough. My employer insisted it be filled out and told them to disregard the parts that did not apply, so I returned to Dr. Morgan’s office at 9:00am to insist they fill out this form with no more than 10 questions. They said to wait. I then began to wait until 11:45am to then be told they would call. So, I had waited there in-person patiently for almost 3 hours at that point for a brief form in which most questions they wanted to disregard. I needed that form as this position was for temporary work, so this morning of the 11th of Jan I return to Dr. Morgan’s office to be told they haven’t gotten around to filling out the form which would have taken less than 5 minutes to fill-out! They wanted to tell me that it could take up to 2 weeks! I protested and asked to speak to Dr. Morgan, but instead they pushed me off onto the office manager who then wished to blame the public for being lazy (“people don’t want to work”) as they were short staffed (the IRONY!) and that was why it could take up to two weeks. I push them to atleast fill out the form by the end of the day, however received an e-mail from my employer saying I was denied for work for something they said wasn’t severe enough to fill-out the form in the first place! DON’T GO HERE!"

"Business office is barely competent nor even ethical since they seem to think it’s perfectly okay to over bill patients, in-spite of a clear contractual agreement with Blue Cross Blue Shield in order to qualify as a “preferred provider” then hold your over payment refund for MONTHS without interest or the very same penalties they would assign to a patient’s late payment. This old federal fraud investigator also strongly suspects I may never have gotten that money back had I not noticed the mistake and pointed it out to their office manager - Ms. D. Sizemore. BTW: For those of you with financial backgrounds this review should remind you of the Ponzi-like scheme known as floating another's funds - while I get full benefit of my investments in said - inflation not withstanding."

"Wonderful office staff and great podiatrist, I've had toe fungus for years and almost quit trying to get help because my last, former podiatrist actually tickled my feet..Dr. Johnson is very professional, and the first to send clipping of my nails to help identify the fungus. I was there by accident by going a day early, but they managed to work me in. I think they called Dr. Johnson to get him back in. Above and beyond, very friendly staff"

"If you want an hour wait, standing in a tiny crowded waiting room (can you say... over booking?), or stand outside as several people were, this is the place to go. They also do not do courteous calls to remind you of appointments and will then certainly bug you about paying $50 for not showing. Try the foot clinic in Daphne - very nice staff- Southeast Podiatry"
