Sharna Larson2025-04-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Thank you Dr. Statler!! I can’t believe I waited months to come in thinking I could tough it out. I was thinking you’d think I was crazy saying it felt like I had a rock in my shoe. Was I wrong! She put these little pads in my shoes and I got instant relief. She gave me oral steroids for the inflammation (I was too scared for the cortisone injection) and within a day I have 90% relief. Within 2 days I’m at 99% relief. I can walk without counting steps. I can go barefoot in the shower because the lump is mostly gone. I’m beyond happy. Thank you doesn’t cover it.
