Advanced Foot and Ankle Wellness Center

"Had recently seen Dr.Melissa for problems with severe foot arthritis. She was really able to see what my problem was and made suggestion for foot orthotics. These orthotics were very helpful. I found her very caring and helpful."

"I got serious glass in my foot and after ER failed to read X-ray before stitching me I came here and they fit me in, dug the glass out after X-ray on site. They were pleasant and thorough and caring. My foot is happy now."

"I was treated around 7/13 for an injury and provided health insurance. Subsequently, I was sent for additional test and screenings due to the severity of my injury along with a follow up appointment for 2 weeks later. The day before the appointment, the office made a confirmation call and stated a balance was on my account. I asked the amount of the balance and was told I had a total of 30 days to pay. Keep in mind, no bill was mailed so there was no knowledge of the bill. Upon check in, I was handed a bill just shy of $300. After inquiring, it was said to be a “deductible “. When additional questions of how much my insurance paid, I was told that “someone had to check with billing”. I asked if I could pay the balance in 48 hours and was told no. Further, treatment was refused. I find it completely unethical to handle this billing matter this way. Pay upon demand in this world is unbelievable when it was not even known. I can’t help to state the obvious of being a minority woman of color. I wonder if my appearance was different if I would have been treated/handled differently. There is right and wrong…. This was wrong!"

"I had my first visit with Dr. Wawrzynek based on what I read of her holistic approach to mobility and wellness. I am very encouraged. She took time to read my history, review my images (taken on-site) and to discuss my concerns with me. She explained several biomechanical factors that might be contributing to my difficulties and explained to me the possible chain of cause and effect. She is one of those special doctors who takes the time to dig deeper into root causes and work step-wise to restore health. I didn't come in expecting a quick fix and she didn't promise one. What I found was the first step in a healing partnership which is based in good science and an understanding of root causes. I have some specific actions to take on my own, and I have a deeper understanding of my situation. I look forward to working toward better health and strength with Dr. Wawrzynek's guidance. The office is well run and pleasant as well. Very nice practice all the way around."

"Dr. Melissa is wonderful and I would highly recommend her. I was hesitant going to see a doctor during Covid but was struggling with foot pain for months and was starting to effect my daily life. Dr. Melissa and her office followed strict guidelines and I felt at ease. She was able to diagnose my issue by noticing my callus pattern. I didn’t think I was going to learn anything but she was extremely knowledgeable. A few days after my visit my feel started to improve. I was beyond impressed with her professionalism and kindness. Plus I can walk comfortably again! 10/10"
