ron debruyne: Dear Dr. Patel,You changed the path of my life and now I'm hiking every day!! I could not have dreamt this two years ago.I'm writing this to thank you for all of your help and to let you know that your are my favorite superhero.When I came to see you I was 55 years old and had suffered from foot pain for over twenty years. The pain was getting to a point where I could barely walk anymore, and I was truly afraid that I soon end up having to use a motorized mobility scooter for the rest of my life. It was a really scary thought.The transformation is nothing short of a miracle, and I will spend the rest of my life, thanking you and Dr. Roth for giving it back to me!!When I met you for the first time, at your clinic in Vancouver, I felt hope for the first time in a very long time.  Over the previous twenty years I had countless appointments with doctors and specialists where I was ignored, or simply sold another pair of expensive custom insoles.  You were the first person who ever ACTUALLY listened and ACTUALLY cared, and from that first meeting on, I felt like I was in good hands.You helped find ways to temporarily reduce the pain from my neuromas and plantar fasciitis and sent me for X-Rays, Ultrasounds, and an MRI.  Together we worked to diagnose my Moron's Neuroma and Morton's Toes, and when I could no longer take the wait for the Canadian medical system, you made arrangements for me to be treated by your colleague Dr. Roth in Boulder Colorado.  I trusted your guidance, and took the leap of faith, and I'm so glad that I did.  Your per-op and post-op followup and coordination with Dr. Roth was amazing, and I have you to thank for how good I feel now.Thank you both so much for all that you do.  I imagine that there are times when you go to work and, because for you it's "just another day", you might occasionally lose sight of the impact that you have on your patient's lives.So I want you to know that the impact you've had on THIS life is completely transformational.  For the first time in 20+ years I have NO foot pain. I had forgotten what it was like to not have pain.  Now I can get back to living, hiking and playing with my grand-daughters.My heartfelt thanks to both of you for all that you've done.Ron deBruyne.

Ann Wu: I wish I had a better experience.Dr. Gracen is friendly, professional, and gentle.However, I ran into numerous obstacles which made me decide to go to else next week.Summary: disorgnized and snarky assistantLong version:At my initial appoitnment, Dr. Gracen advised that a x-ray (spine and hip) is required for her to determine whether orthotics would be helpful for my situation.I was asked to go to Downtown Radiology (in Chinatown) it. The radiology place told me that they don't do full-body x-ray there and sent me to Footbridge Centre for Integrated Orthopaedic Care Inc. The receptionist there said they only do x-ray for their clients. I asked her to double-check and she then said I could get it.My follow-up appointment was on Feb 28th. I remember because it was the last day of Feb. Of course I also had it noted in my calendar. It was quite snowy that day so I called the clinic number a few times first thing in the morning to ask if they would be rescheduling the appointments. I got no calls or emails from them so I attended my appointment. The door was locked and no one was at the clinic when I arrived. I called again and there's still no response. After a few days, they called to reschedule the "cancelled appointment" with me. I advised that the appointment was never cancelled. The lady said,"what do you mean? we call you and left a message". My call history shows otherwise. She then offered March 21st and I asked if she had anything sooner. She offered March 9th which was easy to remember because that's my birthday.On March 9th, I attended my appointment and found that the Dr. was not in the country. The lady said they wouldn't have booked any appointment that day because the Dr was in the States. She also said that it could be booked by the other receptionist. She re-booked my appointment for March 20th.On March 20th, I attended my appointment with the hope to review the x-ray result and learning about if and how orthotics could help. Dr. Gracen stated that there was no x-ray result but they will ask for them. Dr. Gracen did the casting for me and said I will hear from them.On April 27th, I called to ask if there's any update. The receptionist said the order has been sent and it will take a few months for the orthotics to be made and delivered. I was a bit confused as I thought I would hear about the result and Dr. Gracen's professional opinion first. I asked to confirm that they got the x-ray result before they put in the order. She said "of course".On May 13th, I got a call from the receoptionist saying the orthotics were ready to be picked up. I asked her if they got my x-ray and what did Dr. Gracen think. The receoptionist said there isn't x-ray and then said there's a part of the x-ray. I asked how did Dr. Gracen know what to order without the full x-ray. The receoptionist asked "are you saying the doctor never told you this?". I dont remember the exact words said by her but the attitude has been quite snarky since the "cancelled appointment". She did ask the Dr. and got back to me with some answers though.On May 18th, I went to pick up the orthotics. I was not given any directions or recommendations. I asked the receptionist and she seemed confused. She said "are you saying the doctor has never told you?" again. She didn't know what I wanted so I gave examples like "what if they don't fit? and what benefits can I expect? how often should I review the orthotics" and more. She provided some information in a way that makes me feel it's something that I should have known because "of course" I would want to get them refurbished in a few years for $65 USD.The receptionists were never rude to the point where I felt the need to call her out. However, intentionally or not, her attitudes were not friendly and made me feel like I was an unreasonable customer.I don't know if Dr. Gracen is aware of any of this but I just want to write an updated review with factual information and then move on with my life. Afterall, I am glad to have the orthotics and hope they will help with my back pain.

The Stomach: I went to Dr. Dedhar about 5 years ago after injuring my foot. I got an appointment the next day, and he fixed my toenail so that I was able to walk properly again. It was a positive experience from start to finish, and it healed up quickly. He even let my kid watch the procedure.
