Looking for a podiatrist
townmom Never heard of Feet & Beyond, but I recommend Dr. Mullen at Foot Care Associates in Hastings.
I've had a stress fracture and plantar fasciitis and he really helped me get back on my feet quickly both times.

SK Dr. Mullen is a good doctor but the admin/payable people for insurance payment are terrible. It will take a long time to straighten out your bills. Check everything.

Stressed out My 93 year old father in law went to the one in Hastings Commons.
When they put his shoes back on and sent him out the door, they were on the wrong feet. They seemed more interested in making sure he got a pair of very expensive shoes from Medicare, because he could. This for a man who could barely walk.
tjs Also, the one on Hastings commons requires that you leave a "credit card on file" so that they can bill you - you either sign the release and leave the card on file or are told that you can "go to another doctor"!!!!
pmnsk Record that when they tell you , then request they put it in writing ...I am sure that would change their attitude.
Steven I wish that were so, Steven, it IS in writing - they have you fill out a release form and will not allow you to be seen without it.
Ralph H. that's the group, Ralph - service may be wonderful, but be prepared to leave your credit card with them, with your permission to make charges.... or they won't see you!
Just Saying.... Actually, when I went to Labcorp and was told to leave the card, I told them that I was uncomfortable with that and they did NOT insist. Services provided appropriately.
JL You can always ask t see their "security policy regarding retention of their patient information",..... most have nothing in place beyond a file cabinet and pc drive, which to me, is just not acceptable or realistic in this day and age...they may also attempt to take your picture or request a photo id....this is NOT part of your insurance companies requirement to grant coverage to you for the monies you and your employer pay for health care coverage.)
A+ for Dr Allesi. Caring and patient!
Not the first place to ask for a cc and wont be the last.
Bumping this up for any current thoughts on Feet & Beyond. I was going to Foot Care Associates but need to switch to a Tier 1 doctor. Also, anyone dealing with foot neuropathy, do they test to find the cause? I was told the testing wasn’t pleasant, any truth to that.
Bessie I go to Dr. Ngyen and Dr Zhu at Feet & Beyond and are very happy with them. I have also referred a few friends to them, and they are all pleased with their care as well!
CraftBeerBob Tier 1 is part of Horizons Omni Gold Plan. Tier 1 doctors have a set copay and would be less out of pocket for testing, procedures, etc. Tier 2 doctors charge what’s customary but is more than the copay on Tier 1 and is usually more out of pocket for other tests and procedures. Not sure if that makes sense..as if any medical insurance makes sense.
I go to Dr. Nguyen. She is wonderful, I like her a lot, very thorough, easy to talk to.
Rex Ryan takes loving care of feet. Not entirely sure that he’s certified, though.
JR I like DR Mullen but I too had billing issues which took months to clear because I trusted them to do it. Turned over to my insurance to fix, and now OK. But yeah, I jeep an extra eye on them. The credit card thing is not that unusual to me. No biggee, it’s easier to deny payment than it is for folks to bill.
StrangerDanger Love Dr. Nguyen, she's great! She is very thorough and makes me feel comfortable. Never felt rushed, listened to all of my concerns and is very pleasant.
The office staff and Dr Zhu are nice as well. Definitely a place I recommend.
