Howard Gale's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Gale is awesome.. I had plantar fasciitis surgery and release. From the very beginning he listened to everything I had to say. My goal was to fix the problem. He did ultrasound and X-rays. It was bad. A week later I had the surgery. I had surgery 4 years ago on my other foot so I knew what to expect, however this foot was worse. Dr Gale told me no putting Weight on my foot. I absolutely listened!!! … knee roller is the best to be mobile, but not use leg or calf. It was hard but I could function.. 4 weeks out.. stitches out and I’m walking well already, but not over doing it. If you have this done. Listen to Dr. Gale.. he knows his stuff:) :) Thank You Dr.Gale Barbara Brown

I have a few underlying conditions that makes me quite the problem patient. Dr. Gale called to check on me and then met me at his office on a Saturday morning. I cannot say enough good things about that visit and Dr Gale. His patience, compassion, gentleness and genuine concern was amazing. He performed test and took the time to explain and answer questions about a very concerning pre-existing condition. Dr Gail took the time to really listen to me and make me feel very safe in his care.

No communication at all between the doctor and the staff. Everyone I talked to gave me different information. I could not get anyone to return my calls or answer my questions. I finally gave up and went to a different doctor.

Dr. Gale is excellent!! Saw him today, got officially released after surgery on August 24. It was a long road but he and staff took great care of me. Will recommend him to anyone. He's a sweetie and very knowledgeable. Thank you so much Dr. Gale!!

All I can say is that during the visit, Dr. Gale tried to sell me a bottle of a type of anti-biotic cleanser that costs $18 a bottle that he would have added to my bill if I wanted it. I thought Doctors usually gave prescriptions for these things???It's not like he's not making enough from my insurance but he has to try to pedal something plus the visit???I paid my insurance co-pay but I still received an additional bill for the visit from his office???Also I tried to address an additional problem I'm having with my feet He told me that we would see about "that" on my next visit I'm looking for another Podiatrist as I type this...

I have been having foot pain for years. After a couple of visits and a new pair of custom orthotics, the difference is just incredible. No more random shooting pains. No more aches. I could not be more pleased.

Not rating him highly because it took 3 months to get a pair of orthotics. It seems that he doesn’t communicate well with his staff. My insurance told me that it was delayed because he had not given the notes that were usually required. My condition worsened unnecessarily as I waited. The staff is friendly and kind so I did not want to give 0 stars.

Blotched surgery for plantar fasciitis which of course was a total failure. Still suffer and now have hole in leg as a reminder of a truly painful experience.

Such a great doctor. I was having extreme foot pain during exercise and could not get it to go away. Dr. Gale helped get me custom orthotics and all my pain went away. Great and friendly team to work with, would recommend this group!

I went to see Dr Gale because I was experiencing extreme heel pain. He took an ultrasound of my heel the same day and it was determined I had Plantar fasciitis. I was in a lot of pain and could barely walk. He gave me an injection the same day and I felt so much better. He is an incredible Dr and I was thrilled that I didn’t have to keep returning repeatedly for other steps that was taken for my care. He listened to me and took action. He also took a mold of my foot and ordered me an orthotic to wear in my shoes. He’s the Best. Thank you very much Dr Howard Gale.
