I will NEVER go back nor recommend this office for anything!! I'm telling all my family and friends who have any type of foot conditions to seriously consider traveling to Naples to the Family Foot & Leg Center.
He recommended someone and, quite frankly, she was a total disaster. He called personally to make sure I was recuperating properly.Went for a consultation on an issue with my foot, had 1 x-ray and a follow up review. As the profession and healthcare technology evolved round the world chiropodist in the USA were renamed podiatrists, D.P.M., Doctors of Podiatric Medicine and concentrated only on the foot and ankle.
I must admit, I probably should be stretching more. thanks doc!Even though many of my friends who have had the same surgery I was facing said I would be in great pain, I made a decision to have the foot surgery while in Naples. Consultation without leaving your home on your tablet, phone, or computer.
He and his staff were always friendly and cheerful. I paid the bill and have now received a bill for over $550 ANOTHER MONTH LATER.
Historically, podiatrists were called chiropodist, meaning those that treat hands and feet but mainly nonsurgically.
Family Foot & Leg Center owned by an unscrupulous Dr. Kevin Lam, located at the Mustang Building on 12250 Tamiami Trail East in Naples, FL.These UNETHICAL scam artists SCAMMED my 86 yro mother who was a new patient who went in for a basic maintenance medical pedicure, but charging her $619, and who LIED about taking a BIOPSY on a perfectly normal toe (which never happened and she would have …

The doctor was professional but the staff at this office cant even be held accountable for misinforming before the exam. Went in for ankle pain and was told by the front desk there was no amount due for the visit with my insurance other than for X-rays or injunctions ect if needed. I called only a few days ahead, saying I had another serious foot issue.. they squeezed me in.. performed the minor sugery..and I am now back on my way to NY..Dr. Lam is awesome! Received a bill for over $400 a MONTH later. With all the rumblings about differences of podiatrist vs orthopedist out there, the reality is that there are more similarities than differences in podiatrists of today vs prior.Residencies are at least 3 years now after a 4 year podiatric medical school concentration on plastics, vascular, general orthopedics and podiatric surgery.
He gave me motion back in my right big toe that has been painful and stiff for years. There are great foot and ankle orthopedic surgeons and podiatrists and some vice versa noted in both professions.
