“I saw Gus for my heel pain a few months ago after consulting other options previously with little benefit. I thought that my bad feet would be something that I would have to put up with forever. But now I don’t give my feet a second thought and am even able to wear heels without pain! Something I could have never imagined. Thank you Gus” – Janet

His authentiticy, his professionism, combined with his beautiful manner make the entire process of foot surgery as minimally invasive as possible. His skills are brilliant and I feel that he is a perfectionist. ” – Joan M.
