Dr. Standa, after a brief examination, misdiagnosed my problem. He treated me for an ingrown toe nail, cutting away part of the nail. After several weeks of discomfort, it was clear the diagnosis and treatment were wrong. On a follow-up appointment he acknowledged that he had done more harm than good, but seemed disinterested (perhaps incapable?) of getting to the root of the problem. He struck me as less than diligent in a number of his responses to questions. I can't recommend him.

I have never been so dismissed b a doctor before, and found his arroganc

Was told appt would last 15mins, it lasted 2 hours. Most of that time repeating my medical history nothing to do with my feet. Condescending, did not listen to me at all, no instructions, basically told me my plantar fasciitis is my fault for being blue-collar but was reluctant to write me a note outlining accommodation at work. Dismissed my EDS as not mattering to the diagnosis he gave. Orthotics did not fit. Was told I could get braces before leaving, did not get them. Waste of time!!!
