Dr. Milisits did an excellent job of explaining what was wrong and what my treatment was. It was something as simple as buying new new inserts to my shoes to help with the pain I was experiencing for 20+ years. I can’t wait till they come in so I can feel the relief thank you, Doctor.Patient Submitted Review

I will definitely see Dr. Milisits again. He actively listened to me, took my direct experience seriously, didn't rush me in and out, performed a thorough examination, and explained things in great detail. An all-around great first examination. Everyone I encountered (including the X-ray technician and other medical office staff) was extremely polite, respectful, friendly, and efficient. Based on this experience (which was my first), I would highly recommend Dr. Milisits and this office to anyone looking for a new podiatrist.rater8 Verified Patient

Dr Milisits really impressed me with his expertise and also his bedside manner. What a pleasure to see someone who not only knows his field but is willing to happily field patient questions. When I found out I needed to wear a boot for a break in my toe, I asked questions re how I could adapt my workout routine instead of just cutting off my activity since that’s important to me. Many doctors would have found these questions irritating, but Dr Milisits was so helpful in giving me some suggestions so I can still stay somewhat active while my foot is healing. He was kind and understanding of my concerns. The staff were very friendly, the office was well-staffed, and the appointment went smoothly with everything on time. X-rays were done right there so that was a huge convenience. Great experience all-around!Patient Submitted Review
