DR. RICHARD LAVIGNA, DPM - BAY AREA FOOT CARE REVIEWS
Dr. Lavigne is great. His staff is very friendly and efficient. I got an appointment and got in to see the doctor very quickly. The exam went well, he asked me a bunch of questions about the pain that I was experiencing. He has an excellent bed-side manner. And he gave me a diagnosis, offered me some suggestions, and asked me how I wanted to proceed. I elected for PT over wearing orthotics, which I have tried to use in the past and am not fond of. Now I’m on the road to recovery and feeling better - all thanks to Dr. Lavigna. If you need to see a podiatrist, I highly recommend Dr. Lavigna.

DR. JASON HIATT, DPM - BAY AREA FOOT CARE REVIEWS
First time with this Bay Area Foot Care location. I felt comfortable with Dr. Hiatt. He was efficient and straightforward. He removed my damaged toenail, which was the best thing to do; it was relatively painless. He also took a look at a toe with a callous that had a deep painful spot for a couple years. He was willing to explore to the spot and found it not to be the usual callous but a small speck of something that had gotten in there. Originally I suspected that there was something embedded in the toe, but no one dug down to see. Getting that out was a nice bonus to my visit. That toe doesn’t hurt at all but the toe without the nail is a little cranky right now.
The staff are professional and my treatment with Dr Hiatt went very well. It was my first visit in a series of 3-5. My foot pain was gone immediately and Dr Hiatt believes this treatment will cure the pain and discomfort I have been suffering from for years. That evening I went to my tap classes from 6:30-9:00pm and danced more than I have in ages. Thank you Dr Hiatt.
Dr Hiatt was considerate and explained every aspect of my problem, surgical intervention and recovery process quite clearly. When you have an appointment, you never feel rushed. He allows you to ask any question. I would definitely return if I had another foot issue.

DR. AJITHA NAIR, DPM, MPH - PROPEL FOOT AND ANKLE REVIEWS
Dr. Nair is a wonderful, brilliant podiatrist. She took great care in her foot assessment of my feet, recommended exercises that would benefit my feet and fit me for orthotics. Dr. Nair is very easy to talk to and a great educator. I am a Registered Nurse and highly recommend her to all nurses and professionals and anyone who has foot problems.
Dr. Nair took the time to sit and get to know me as a new patient. She was informative, thoughtful, and provided more options for treating my foot problems that other doctors I have seen for the problem. I just recommended her to a friend.
I was so pleased that I randomly chose Dr. Nair, I felt so well cared for. Dr. Nair took lots of time gathering my history, assessing my feet and my gait and then explaining the different types of orthotics. She is very friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to answer any questions.
