My dad goes to Dr. Breth and probably took his breath away with how awesome his foot is recovering due to the red light therapy treatments offered at this office. My dad is looking forward to getting back to driving.

This is mostly a review of the front desk staff. The people there barely raised their eyes to me when I came in. I had to say something for them to look at me. OK, maybe they were busy. The woman who took my foot X-Rays was actually nice. After that I saw the doctor, which in general seemed to be a good experience. I had really old orthotics that I wanted to replace. He said that the front desk would send it to my insurance. He then sent me back to the front desk and I checked out and did my co-pay. No smiles, no conversation, just took my credit card and charged me.
Since then, over 2 months ago, I have been trying to get in touch with the office to see what the result with my insurance. I never heard from them. I tried to contact the front desk at least 6 times, and it always went through to an answering service. This was in the middle of the day and not before or after hours. I NEVER heard back from them. I was so frustrated I decided to go to another doctor. I couldn't bear to deal with them. Such a waste of co-pay money, which is $65 for me!! Do NOT go here!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - 146151284Sep 23, 2022
I should of did a bit more research before coming here. I did find good reviews for Dr Khana so that is a plus. However, this front desk is deplorable. If you don't ask you won't know. She checks you in and then you are sitting here and have no idea what happens next. My Father is here for surgery and we were told a certain time and 40 minutes later no communication unless I say hey how much longer will we be waiting. Then it's like just sit and wait. We are pretty patient however given we are the ONLY ones in this office.....I'm disappointed.
The doctor came in late. But I'm not even upset with that. I'm upset that it wasn't communicated "Dr is running late". Things happen so that wouldn't bother me, but communication is so important. So just let people sit and wait for 50 minutes and you say nothing? Is that okay???Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Holly H.Stamford, CT651Jul 16, 2023
Dr. Evan saw me in his office right away when I called told them about my issue. He has a very friendly manner and explained what my problem was and the course of action he recommended. He checked in with me to see how I was doing after my procedure and scheduled a follow up visit right away. I highly recommend him and his office staff who were super courteous and friendly.

Absolutely do not come here. Dr. Breth ignored my request for an MRI repeatedly since my first visit. He offered no help or advice other than to sit and wait and see if it heals. I did this for a month, and when it didn't approve I again requested an MRI. He said, let's give it another month and it felt slightly better and he cleared me to run. So I run for about a week and the pain returns, worse than before. He finally agrees an MRI might be warranted. The MRI showed were three things wrong with my ankle, all of which required corrective surgery. He presented me with two surgery options, did not mention any potential downsides to surgery (there were in fact many as I'd later learn).
I then got a second opinion from another podiatrist and they told me that under NYS law they weren't allowed to perform that kind of surgery and referred me to an orthopedic surgeon. My treatment at Breth's office was borderline criminal malpractice. If he had listened to me, I would've been fully recovered by now, but instead I have another four months of recovery ahead of me. And no doubt worsened my injury thanks to his suggestions.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Trey W.San Francisco, CA02Dec 3, 2020
Would also give zero stars if I could. I went in and he essentially gave me no help or advice whatsoever. Just said to rest my foot. Had to self remedy at home to figure out a brace to help my arch pain. That was all after I sat in the waiting room for 45 minutes.
I asked for the bill on my way out and was told there wasn't any.
10 months later out of the blue I get a collection agency asking me for $128 payment. Why was I never sent the bill? Why didn't they call? Apparently they imputed my address wrong, and had 253 instead of 252. So if they sent anything in the mail, I didn't get it...
The incompetence of the admins and the lack of help from the doctor make this place a must avoid.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Walker A.Tanque Verde, AZ583126490Aug 14, 2017
My Podiatrist was out of town and dr.khana now was covering from progressive podiatry. I left a message with their staff that she should call me because I needed antibiotics I left my phone number and the name of the antibiotics the doors and the pharmacy. What happened next was that this occur in the morning on Friday.
No one called in the prescription or called me back. I tried to call them back at 2pm but the phone was continuously busy and there was no voice mail.

I've come here twice for a foot injury. It was very clear that the practice was trying to "sell" me the crap shoe inserts when I already have custom orthotics made by my previous podiatrist. They insisted these premise packaged ones were better even though they were not molded to my feet. Both visits I did not feel cared for or listened to at all. They are just trying to make a buck and don't value their patients.

The stars are mostly for the doctor. The receptionist and assistant on the other hand lower the rating. Dr. Breth was amazing; attentive, caring and really wanted to get to the issue at hand. The girls working there although friendly are not very helpful. I've spent over two weeks on the phone with these women and have gotten no where. Putting my trust in them have cost me over $200 and my sanity. Had to put my foot down and go to them today. Love the office and efficiency but the absent minding is not fair.

Very professional service and care here!
Update: well, I'm here to change my previous review, sadly. I had a very good initial appointment with the doctor, but there were follow-up complications and I called the office three different times and spoke to the office staff who assured me the doctor would get back to me. Unfortunately, I never heard back from him.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0
