Dr. Goodeill is an outstanding podiatrist. I put off having my extremely painful foot issue addressed, thinking it would just "go away". It did not. After weeks of severe foot pain, I finally called for an appointment, was seen within six hours of my phone call. After x-rays and ultrasounds were taken of my feel, Dr. Goodeill came into the examination room where I was waiting and after looking at my x-rays, he immediately recognized what my problem was. He explained everything to me, began treatment, and within a few minutes he had already greatly reduced the pain in my foot. I highly recommend anyone with a foot/ankle problem to go to your closest Foot + Ankle Specialty Center for help. I am confident that they can help you, too.
