This was honestly one of the best Dr.'s visits I've ever had. Dr. Ternent and her nurse were a well oiled team. They worked fast and incredibly efficient to remove 2 ingrown toenails. She absolutely knew what she was doing and stayed focused, while at the same time being outgoing, funny and kind.
Highly recommend her for any podiatry issues you might have!

Dr. Ternent was excellent. I had been dealing with problems and issues with my feet for almost two years. She recommended potential solutions, answered my questions, and made me confident that I could get better by following her advice. I will definitely continue going to her for medical care.

If you have any orthopedic assistance, Katherine should be the go-to. She explained everything and her attention to detail was perfect. I have no doubt she can help you get back on track! Thank you! :)

Dr. Ternant and her assistant were both so amazing. My tween daughter had an ingrown toenail and has a big fear of needles. They were understanding and explained the process in a way that didn’t increase her anxiety. The procedure was quick and easy. Everyone was very personable.
