Matthew Cole is a wonderful doctor. He listens and truly cares about his patients. I have already recommended him to my daughter.

This provider is very personable and thorough. I will definitely return, if I'm ever again in need of a foot surgeon. My comfort level with the results of my care would be even higher if an X-ray had been taken after the doctor reset my toe, to confirm that the bone is now in the correct position.

Matt pulled up my XRays and went over changes from a year ago. Explained well. Discussed potential for future treatment and had staff check on insurance coverage. Matt is kind and professional. You can tell he cares!

I felt like I was heard during my appointment and reassured that I am on the right track. We went over what I can do to improve my condition. I did not feel rushed and that I was able to ask pointed questions.
