I'm a big fan of Dr. Novella. I met with him 3 years ago for Hallux Limitus and have visited multiple times since for followups. He does not perform surgery. I specifically wanted to meet with a non-surgeon to get an unbiased opinion. He was caring, extremely knowledgeable and displays really great common sense (sounds silly but I greatly appreciate this in a Dr.) At times his manner can be a bit abrupt (aka when I had decided to do a dif calf stretch than the one he recommended, he was a bit crabby about it) but I take it a as a sign that he actually cares and is vested in his patients. He recommended insoles for me instead of surgery and referred me to an excellent physical therapist. I do still have some issues with my foot so surgery may be something I need in the future, but his advice was sound and accurate. At my last visit he did give me names of two of the best surgeons so I could meet with them and explore that option. For me he's a trusted caregiver.
My app'ts usually start EXACTLY to the minute as scheduled. His staff is helpful - went above and beyond to assist me when my insurance company messed up several things even though they don't accept my insurance. Again, they also seem to genuinely care and are conscientious individuals.
