Domenick Calise's Online Review Report Card

He has no compassion, and all he cares about is his ego. He wants to be known for having a perfect record of saving feet, but if he can’t save yours, then he doesn’t care. He’ll leave you in the dirt. He also thinks he’s smarter than an MRI machine. Personally.. he holds grudges big time. He’s got the personality of a fish. Never laughs, never smiles, always grumpy, and always bad news. He’s also violent, and has thrown stuff at nurses and techs in hospitals, as well as insulted them. He claims that he’s the number one Charcot correctional surgeon in Pasco county, but from the evidence I’ve found, he hasn't even done any osteotomy and fusions to realign the foot. Instead, all he does is surgical debridement and the only reason he puts you to sleep is because he doesn’t want you to know what he’s doing. He won’t give you any details after the surgery either. Plus.. if you have Charcot deformity, and want it. corrected, he’ll try to intimidate you and say you’ll die during surgery!

My Dad Virgil Bliss was in the Hospital November 9 thru November 22nd. He had been battling a foot ulcer since May 2022 with a different Podiatrist. To no avail his foot was not getting any better. So when Dr.Calise cam to the Hospital to see my dad he was very thorough with his findings. he had X-rays taken of the Right Foot for himself because he said he trusts his own findings not anyone else’s. My Dad had Foot Surgery on Nov 15. My Dad was in a Rehab Center from November until January 22nd. He did have to have another Surgery on his Foot and it went well and is continuing to get Better. Dr. Calise is very please with the Healing Process and he does not push the Patient to start walking or putting weight on his foot. Until he says it is ready. Dr. Calise. Is my Dad’s Guardian Angel. He had said he wished he had seen My Dad back in May. So if you need a Great Podiatrist please call Total Foot and Ankle in Zephyrhills you will be glad that you did.Thank you to Dr. Calise.

Two other doctors said amuputation. He saved my leg and I am once again walking using two legs. A whole lot of surgery but the infection in the right leg is gone and has never returned. I have complete movement with no issues. Without him, I wouldn't be where I am today. Thank you doctor Calisi and his incredible staff.

Six weeks post op and no pain or swelling. Dr Caliese is kind, knowledgeable, thorough, and patiently addressed all of my concerns.

Very happy with efficiency and friendliness of office staff. It’s happy and though they may be very busy, they make each patient feel important.

In 2018 I had a bunionectomy and hammer toe surgery that were not done properly and let me in pain and difficulty to walk for years. I consulted with 3 different specialists who did not want to do the surgery or had their doubts. I moved to Zephyrhills one year ago and my PDP referred me to Dr Domenick Calise. In my first visit he told me: "I can do it" He explained to me what he will do to correct the previous surgery. The surgery was successfully performed by Dr Calise on 07/08/22. After 2 months I started to walk again. My toes are aligned, and I feel more confident when walking. Thanks God and Dr Calise for his confidence, professionalism and excellent job.

Dr. Calise is a thoughtful and thorough podiatrist. He takes the time to explain things and genuinely cares about his patients. The office staff is friendly and helpful.

He’s an amazing dr but when it comes to surgery I’m always in hospital for weeks and when it comes to having surgery it’s always delayed and canceled so have to stay in hospital longer

Dr. Calise is rude and a butcher. Please choose a different doctor to take care of your loved ones. His methods cost my husband lmultiple amputation. He yelled at my husband and dismissed him during a difficult time...after losing his foot and left him in tears. Dr. Calise telling at my husband and telling him he would no longer take care of him was fir the best. We found a new and better podiatrist that respects my husband and he has gotten better care. Dr. Caluse is prone to angry tempertantrums and unconventional methods that don't work for the patients. I'm surprised no one has sued him and that he is still allowed to practice medicine and traumatize patients.

Words cannot express my great appreciation for the time and effort that Dr. Calise afforded to my eighty nine year old mother. My mom, a diabetic, almost lost her toe if not for the heroic efforts of Dr. Calise. He was very patient and spent additional time in order to prevent her from losing her toe. Next time, if he is a few minutes late for your appointment, please forgive him because he is assisting a patient, like my mom, that needs additional time due to their medical condition.
