Aaron K. Seiter's Online Review Report Card

I have had extremely painful fasciitis. I went to Dr Sieter for my right foot, after shots, we decided the best next step was surgery. I had a great experience with his work. I was walking right after surgery and In 2 weeks back to almost normal. In 3 weeks back to normal and great results. 7 years later, same thing with the other foot. Same results, great experience!! He has a fantastic personality and bedside manner, he explained everything in detail. His staff is very friendly and accommodating. I would recommend him and his office to everyone. I will not go anywhere else.

Warning: Don't casually mention to the receptionist that you're nervous, or else you may be given treatment without a consultation first! (It's taken me a year or so to decide that I'd post this warning, because I thought the doctor was nice and I truly enjoyed our conversation during and after the surgery. And surprise shots are *technically* an effective technique for eliminating anxiety. BUT, I've ended up thinking about it numerous times in the nearly 2 years since then and my concerns about the ethics have not faded.) An extra 5 minutes while I heard about my condition and had treatments explained would not have made any difference to my anxiety levels in the grand scheme of things--I'd already waited weeks for an open appointment!) Still, I don't "not" recommend this doctor...just be aware of a few things so that you can avoid them if they would be problematic to you. Since I'd already researched on my own a LOT in the weeks before seeking treatment. I was especially interested in talking about different treatment options beforehand, particularly since a common one was surgery. I may well have decided to choose surgery as a best course of action, but not even getting the opportunity for that was frustrating. I feel like I should need to provide CONSENT to a procedure before it begins, yet I wasn't even told *what* the procedure was before the first step happened. Perhaps there's an argument for implicit consent when walking into an exam room? 🤔 Not to me, but I'm no ethicist. I'm not a medical professional, but it makes me wonder if this doctor may opt for surgeries excessively, since he automatically decided on it without any discussion first. Surgery just doesn't seem like it should be a one-size-fits-all solution, even if it's a relatively minor surgery. And the bill for surgery was–unsurprisingly–not small! Even after insurance. Two particular concerns I wanted to discuss before considering surgery were about the recovery time and the visual aesthetics of the area after it had healed. I immediately stopped him and asked about these after the surprise numbing shot and was told it would be unnoticeable after healing. I disagree, and do not love how the edge of my nail looks over a year later...but I'm probably the only one who will pay attention. Still...foot models beware, I guess? Recovery time was minimal, though, as promised, and I was even able to drive home with no problem. I want to emphasize that the doc seems like a pretty cool dude, and I think I still recommend him. Just be aware of this stuff so that you can get an actual consultation first. (Err... I'm assuming he does those at least sometimes.)

Greatest foot doctor I know!!

Highly recommend Dr. Seiter! He goes above and beyond for his clients. Him and his staff are extremely helpful, friendly, and knowledgeable. I've seen him several times this year and genuinely enjoyed each visit.

Super friendly doctor and staff, very knowledgeable, really listened to my description

I am so glad that I made the switch over to Dr.Seiter! I just had my gastroc recession last Friday and this has been the best and easiest recovery and the simplest pain recovery ever! I have not had hardly any pain at all after this! My incision is so clean and I scar so easily and this is just absolute perfection! I won’t go to anyone else! Thank you so much for everything Dr.Seiter!!! 😊😊😊

If I could leave no stars, I would. Just an FYI for people like me. I go in, with no mask, I don't carry them with me. After reviewing my information with me, the receptionist asked if I had one and I said no. She asked if I was vaxed. I said that I had received one but have a religious exception going forward on them. She refused me service and I left to my car. A few min later I went in and asked if she could define "fully vaxed" . I reminded her of my situation and all she could do was stumble over words. She COULD NOT EXPLAIN THEIR definition of fully vaxed! I guess I should have know better but I hate switching dr. I also went here a couple years ago for the same reason as today, Mortons neuroma, a steroid shot in my foot, and while he did listen to my complaint he DID NOT put it in the correct spot (I've had these several times) and it ended up being more painful when he did it along with not being fully effective and not lasting as long as it should.

Courteous & easy to talk to. Explains best options for treatment & answers any questions.

Excellent. From the moment I walked in, until I left. Everyone was pleasant and helpful. Dr. Seiter removed my toenail in just a few minutes, no pain and clear instructions. Very satisfied.

I felt very fortunate to have done a Google search, read the great reviews and picked Dr. Seiter. It can be daunting to find a podiatrist for at times, we sometimes put off what needs to be taken care of. Thank you, Dr. Seiter, I am pain free and very thankful for your care. His staff was so kind, courteous and caring. If I need foot or ankle care in the future, I will call Dr. Seiter.
