Nice and to the point.
Good
I was really hoping Dr. Maehrer and Dr. Cook would be able to help me. But in both times with the contact cast, I felt they stopped the boot short of the heel healing. They do not see that the skin meets but forms a soft scab. Both times the scab fell off and the ulcer opened up again. I am now treating this on my own and will have to seek another doctor who can help me. I was so hopeful and sure that they could help - but now just disappointed.
every thing you could sk for your doctor. Caring, understanding and compassionate. Would not have any other doctor take care of my amputated foot but him
Best explanation I've had about the structural problems creating pain in foot, and noninvasive remedies to start. Thank you!
He is the best
He's great! My only reservation is that he spoke a little too fast. I had to pay very close attention to what he was saying. I know he probably says the same things many times a day but, it sounded a bit automatic which made it difficult to follow at times. I was comprehending at about a quarter of a second delay of his delivery. Not a major crime but, just saying ...
Dr. Cook is a very kind and caring doctor who explains everything to you. I would recommend him without hesitation.
