How likely are you to recommend Dr. Tellam?
Yesterday was the first time I've needed Podiatric care as an adult, and I wanted to share my experience with this office. While my foot pain was not emergent, I did want to be seen same day. I called this office around 8:30 am and was given a 9:15 am appointment. I arrived early but was seen shortly after filling out paperwork. I met with the nurse, who was very warm and chipper. She asked what was wrong and then took x-rays. I sat in an exam room maybe 10 minutes or less before Dr. Tellam came in to talk me through what he suspected. He was very gentle and I felt comfortable talking with him. He gave a diagnosis of tendonitis and many options for pain treatment. I opted for a shot to ease my pain/ inflammation (the nurse even held my hand because I have needle fear) and a boot to walk more easily. I actually left this office pain free, all within an hour. Overall, the speed, quality, and ease of care will assuredly bring me back to this office should I need further podiatric care!
