Testimonials

Dr.Palmer was awesome thru the whole process. very professional and understanding. I highly recommend him to anyone with feet problems. Thank you

This was not my first time to see Dr. Smith. He is such a caring and personable doctor and listens to his patients. Even after several years, he still remembered who I was and my family. The procedure he performed on my foot was done quickly and the follow up went well. I would highly recommend Dr. Smith.

He knew exactly but I was talking about when I told him about the pain in the ball of my foot under my toes. He gave me the option of oral steroids or a shot, I chose the shot. I've been pain free ever since. Thank you Dr. T

I had been having awful foot pain to the point I could hardly stand to get up to walk. It had been going on for some time and I decided to go see a Dr. Got appoint and Dr palmer was so good and took his time checking out my foot. Turns out it wasn't even the foot causing problem but the side of my ankle. needless to say but I just about healed. I can get up out of bed or chair and put my foot all the way down like you should. I would highly recommend Gateway Foot & Ankle if you are having problems.

Dr Benjamín took his time explaining the problem Im having with toe nail as well as recommending the solution. Very sweet caring helpful team.

I like his attention to detail Johnny on the spot very good Doctor

I went to Dr Bridges for toe nail fungus; she had me on meds for three months and now I can stop. I see a great improvement in my nails. She tells me the medicine will continue to work in my system for some time.

Excellent service.

Very attentive to my issues, and provided a plan to remedy. Very nice and considerate. Look forward to proceeding with treatment plan.

very easy comfotable and on time

Dr. Palmer is very professional in his demeanor but he is also very down to earth and explains things so that they are understandable. He listens to his patients and considers all possbile options for treatments.

Great Doctor which I have seen numerous times over the years.

Dr. T. is great! Knew exactly what the issue was and how to resolve it in a timely fashion.

Sympathetic to your needs and tries to provide a solution on your first visit.

Dr. Palmer was very concerning, friendly, and extremely helpful. I am so grateful to him. And I recommend him highly. Thank You!

The doctor was nice, however nothing was resolved with my foot issues. The 1st visit was ok, the second follow up visit was useless, they didn't seem to know why I was there. My foot still hurts

Very thorough and pleasant doctor.My husband has been seeing him for awhile now.Which is why I asked my primary care doctor to be referred to him.The Orthopedic practice just needs a bigger building.

so far staff & Dr. hAVE BEEN awesome very friendly concerned over my injury,Dr. has people skills bonds with patient, jokes not so tense in a visit I enjoy going to my visits not dread them.

Dr. Smith took exceptional time with my husband and I. He showed interest in us. We really appreciated that. We will return and recommend! Thank you Pat Cobb

Went through all the steps and detail felt at ease and comfortable

He’s brutally honest and direct, but I need that!

Dr T explained everything concerning my foot problem and what options we could considered to try to resolve my issue.

Did a great job explaining the upcoming surgery by going over xrays, foot anatomy and function, and having knowledge of medicine within the Army.

Went in for fungus problem. The doctor said would be better to remove the toenail. I been have trouble with it a long time. It’s pretty thick toenail, he gave me the option of remove the toenail and properly come thick again or he could kill the root and skin would grow over it. It’s been super sensitive for years, so I opted for the permanent removal. Since I am 73, going on 74. Now it’s healing and not sensitive like it used to be, and no fungus problem now

The appointment that I had was my first one. I think that everyone was professional, and I have every intention to follow up with Dr.Smith. He listened to my concerns and made me feel like he cares. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of care. Thank you!

I had my first visit with Dr Bridges earlier this year and had to return after lab work was done. She was very professional and explained thoroughly what I was experiencing. There will be an opportunity to return for additional treatment and I have no qualms about doing so.

Dr.T. is always patient and understanding in all my concerns. He always answers all my questions and concerns. He is one of the best doctors I have.

It was a pleasant experience,

Dr Palmer he’s awesome

Dr Turscello was exceptional at diagnosing and explaining my heal spur issue. 2nd visit was even better as the guided steroid injection was excellent and almost no heal pain for 2 weeks now. I highly recommend Dr T

I’ve been coming here for about a year now, being treated by Dr. Palmer. I must say that he’s such a great Dr., and a person. He’s very professional, yet has a very humbling personality. He’s always treated me with respect and advised me of my issues , along with the pros and cons of his recommendations. He listens to me each and every time during my appointments with him, and has always gone over and beyond to assist me. He performed a surgery on me to correct another surgeon’s mishap from 17 years ago, which originated from an injury sustained while serving in the USMC. I actually recovered faster than expected, and the surgery was with minimal pain, which was a great thing! I would highly recommend him to anyone who asks; without hesitation.

Despite running late due to dealing with surgery patent. Dr T apologized and still had time for me. I understand his busy schedule and filled with the unexpected, he is still my favorite Dr. As a senior, he always makes me feel special. Thank you for all you do!

They were all so very nice to me and they treated me with respect and kindness. They are very a knowledgeable with EDS, which makes me very happy and definitely want to recommend them to anyone that I know that has it.

My wife and I have nails trimmed every 2 1/2 months, very satisfied with our experiences

I'm not a patient but my Dad is a Doctor Smith has always been professional and has always answered my questions and concerns about my dad.

Dr. Palmer is the best! He is very knowledgeable and kind. Great place!

Dr Truscello and staff are the best---they will do everything possible to help you solve your problem (s). Dr. Truscello is a no nonsense physician-you can believe what he tells you is upfront and truthful.

Dr. T is always thorough and listens to any questions I may have. Takes enough time to discuss any issues I may have.

Always have a great experience here.

Dr. Palmer is such an open, funny, straightforward, and friendly individual. During my first visit with him he heard me out and didn’t insult me unlike my last podiatrist did from Shuller. He seen the problem, listen to my complaints, found a solution, and welcomed my feedback. I really loved being apart of my treatment plan. He heard me out completely and didn’t try to downplay my concerns with his degree. I respect Dr. Palmer whole heartedly and will continue y respect him and this practice. This is the only podiatrist that I would ever see here in Clarksville!!

Friendly atmosphere! Dr. Bridges answers all my questions and is always willing to take as much time as needed. The only issue is the crowded waiting room and tight corridors.

Dr. Bridges and her team are true professionals that go beyond the scope of their duties.

I feel that aDr Palmer is a very good Dr and very nice. I feel that he takes good care of me

Good experience. She took good care off me. Explained everything she wanted to do.

First time there. It was good

Both the staff and Dr. Palmer's professionalism, and dedication was/is great. With a full case load, making sure each patient is treated as individuals was clearly a priority. This positive attitude is not always present in other medical offices.

It was good.

Really liked Dr. Bridges. Very informative & took time to answer my questions. I would recommend anyone who’s looking for a good foot/ankle doctor to consider seeing her.

very caring

Everyone was very friendly yet professional.

Dr. Bridges did a minor outpatient surgery on my son which went extremely well. Within a couple days following prescribed treatment the area is healing nicely and and shows much improvement. I would recommend Christina Bridges, DPM to anyone I'm the future. Sincerely.

The hest of the best

Ok

Please with treatment I received

Dr. Palmer and his staff are wonderful. They are extremely helpful, accommodating with my schedule and easy to work with. Dr. Palmer renders great care in a friendly compassionate manner. You couldn’t ask for a better provider.

The staff and the doctor were very compassionate and professional I came with one issue and they were able to help me with another medical concern that I had for a long time that wasn't relevant to what I really came there for.

Great at explaining questions I had. Exceptionally helpful and informative. I enjoyed my visit with him.

Helpful and informative

Great Dr know is stuff

GOOD

Staff is very attentive to me. As a senior this act of kindness is very appreciative. I like the online service for check in. It is an added benefit. As a diabetic the checkups are thorough and unrushed. Keep up the great work

Dr Palmer was so gentle with my sore toe. I have diabetes and neuropathy in my feet and somehow badly bruised my big toe. He looked it over and told me nothing was broken but it would take a while to heal. He explained everything to me. I always saw Dr Smith in the past and he was great but I thought a new doctor needed patients of his own to start. The whole staff here are great!!!

Dr. Smith is amazing. He is extremely personable and very patient centric. He wants what is best for every patient and is willing to take the time to go through all possibilities and options to ensure his patient can make the most informed decision for their medical treatment. The only downfall to Dr. Smith's amazing care is that there is always a long wait and you typically have to wait 30-60 minutes after your appointment time to be called back for your visit. I have been in Dr. Smith's care for about 5 years now and I am incredibly thankful that he is my doctor.

All staff are professional, knowledgeable and kind. I finally got relief from excruciating pain. I'm very grateful!

Dr. Truscello is super--no hidden problems he puts everything out for you to make a reasonable and rational decision. He cares about his patient and their problems- again a super individual !!!!!!!

They were very caring

She was very User Friendly and PROFESSIONAL. She was very thorough in explaining things to me and left room for questions. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a orthopedic specialist. Thanks Dr. Bridges

I’ve been a patient for a few years and had multiple procedures and appointments. Dr. T and his staff have been wonderful during my treatment and surgery!

Recently had foot surgery! All the staff was great

Great staff and very professional

Very nice been a patient sevetal yrs, they really care & listen.

It was a good experience. Everyone was curious & knowable. I was treated and fitted for new shoes. They are kind & respectful. Will recommend them to everyone

Everyone was courageous, I didn't have to wait long in the waiting room or exam room. Thanks to my doctor and staff for job well done.

Dr. Truscello was great. Took his time talking with me and seemed genuinely interested in helping with my feet issues. My only note was that he suggested some imaging that no one discussed with me at checkout and when I called to follow up on the status I was told there was nothing in my chart about it being done. It's not a big deal and we will discuss it at my next appointment, just slightly frustrating. Overall I'd still highly recommend him.

Dr was efficient. Gave me bandages for the sore on top of foot from boot.

Why.

Very good, can't wait to have bigger waiting room

Overall great experience with Dr. Smith, glad I found him when I did!

The doctors and staff are the best!

Dr. Truscello is a great doctor. He was really nice and had a great bedside manner..

Very good service

Was treated with respect and Curtesy. Makes my visit pleasant

Great the waiting room is a little tight

Dr. Janda does listen to his patients and their problems/ issues going on, he did with me anyway! He would try to figure out why I would have a pain in an area but partial tear on the other side. Surgery was/is my last option so he would try to help me every way possible. I would recommend going to him for foot and ankle problems!

Very nice.

Dr. Bridges was very kind and caring. She detected what was wrong with my swollen foot and ankle. She prescribed what was needed and put my foot in compression.

Staff and doctor have been fantastic. I would recommend this practice to everyone.

Very friendly staff. Doctor Trusecello is very helpful and answers all my questions.

I have already recommended you to a couple of folks. The therapy you ordered has really helped me get a "grip" on the importance of regular exercise and strengthening my ankles. I also bought some better tennis shoes from the Fleet Store at the recommendation of my therapist, Morgan. She is awesome. Thanks and see ya' soon!

Very friendly and very knowledgeable. Always answers any questions

Prompt and thorough.

Dr Smith knows his stuff. He has helped me heal my feet and toes which at one point I thought was hopeless.

Over all great service good people and Doctors

Dr. Smith has helped me to walk again! I’ve always taken his recommendations and advice, had 3 surgeries and numerous other things to improve my mobility. No more infections and pain when I walk. He’s the best!

Dr Smith listened with empathy to my concerns. He also provided several approaches to treatment and performed my surgery with care. I am pleased with the results.

Dr. Janda is a very caring and knowledgeable foot and ankle doctor. He is tenacious in finding a solution to any foot or ankle you may have.

I am well pleased with y visit with Dr. Truscello and staff. I was in and out quickly. Had no pro with my surgery. Thank a lot.

Dr Janda took care of my feet problems.

Dr. Janda is always patient and kind. He gives me his full attention each visit. He's a great doctor!

Dr. Bridges listened to me, understood my medical situation, and gave me helpful advice on how to deal with my condition. She also took the time to cut my toenails, which I appreciated, since I have no feeling in my toes due to peripheral neuropathy, I would highly recommend Dr.Bridges as a provider.

He amazing. He l listens and does great
