Every procedure has been top notch for everyone in my family. This past weekend I ripped my big toenail loose. Contacted their office and the squeezed me right in and removed the nail totally painless. The receptionist is probably the best I have ever dealt with and the nursing staff is top notch. Highly recommend.

Dr Lawlor is one of the best doctors and podiatrists anywhere. He is dynamic and hard working. As a Diabetic patient, he has taken excellent care of me and my feet for several years now. He is knowledgeable, experienced, and pleasant to work with under all circumstances. He is relatively painless, dynamic and hard-working. His staff are professional and personable. Located in attractive, well-designed offices, It is worth going the extra mile for him. He has literally saved my foot following a random pedicurist accident.

Dr Schmidl was very personal, professional and listened, then asked lots of questions before examining me, doing ultrasound on both ankles/Achilles tendons and giving his diagnosis and recommendations.

The office of Dr Hansen is 100% quality care. From the minute you walk in the door, you feel like you are not just a number but a name. Dr. Hansen himself is very competent and has a very nice disposition. He puts you at ease. I am glad I’m in the hands of such a caring office and doctor.

This was my first visit to the Ft Myers office. . I have been in the practice for over two years and saw Dr Martyka but since he moved it was not convenient for me. So I moved to this office . From the minute I walked in the door I got a warm welcome and a confident feeling arose within me. Dr Hansen emanates knowledge and caring. It’s nice to know that I’m once again with a good practitioner.

I love it when a doctor sees you and you just know they're there for you and not just another patient to work with. Once the door closes she spent as much time as needed for my husband and myself to fully understand everything about my husbands foot needs and what was going to take place moving forward. Dr. Ola Sheik Roberts is wonderful, caring and awesome to work with. Her staff; the receptionist and the the MA are exceptional in their positions as well. Great communicators!!!

Jorge Diaz

Dr. Hansen is in favor of saving my toe by shaving off the deformed area to help straighten it while 2 other doctors want to either cut it off or do an even more complicated surgery of inserting a steel pin. Dr. Hansen gets my vote for coming up with this idea no one else thought of! In addition he has previously cleared up another infection on .y left big toe and straightened a hammer toe on my right foot simply snipping its tenden. Clever and pain free. He has a super attitude and is really nice as well. I highly recommend him.
