Mark Golec is a very terrible doctor if you have a foot fracture do not gp to him please he is not knowledgeable at treating this problem he is lucky i didn't sue him . Christine

I was admitted to the hospital with a problem with my foot. Previous doctors wanted to amputate my foot. He asked me if I would trust him and if I would follow his instructions to the letter. I figured what did I have to lose so I said yes. I still have a fully functioning foot and even regain sensation in my foot.
