I've been a patient of Dr. Funk's for roughly 4 years. He is absolutely amazing! He is thorough and has one of the best bedside manners I've ever encountered.Dr. Funk listens and also has a sense of humor. I wouldn't go to anyone else.

Dr. Funk has taken excellent care of me for 25 years now. I have recommended him to my friends and they actually thank me after becoming his patient. He truly cares and listens to your concerns. I cannot say enough good things about him.

Dr. Funk sees my parents every 3 months for diabetic foot checks and clipping their toenails.
He is super sweet and has a great bedside manner! I like his personality and the love that he has for his patients! Also has a good sense of humor. My kind of
guy! His staff is very friendly!

My 1st appointment with Dr Funk. He established an excellent/patient rapport. He was very thorough in explaining my issue’s options and treatments. Problem resolved without pain!

I'm a similar story to Cindy F. He flippantly told me for my Morton's Neuroma that I should 'get those darn things out of there'. Being trusting, I did, and I'll never be the same. I'm so much worse off now than before. This is a guy who is supposed to know better, and get patients like me to someone who actually knows how to do peripheral nerve surgery !

Don't let this guy do peripheral nerve surgery on your feet - BAD NEWS !!!

I had a nerve removed from my foot about 10 months ago. Prior to surgery I had no pain, only numbness in the bottom of my foot, but never any pain. Dr. Funk never checked my foot to see if I there was a bad nerve with any kind of medical test. He only felt my foot. I think he just assumed that I had a bad nerve between my toes, but never verified it. Today I still have the same problem with sometimes losing circulation in my leg which causes my foot to go numb on the bottom, which was the whole reason for the surgery to begin with. I think the doctor took out the wrong nerve! He even told me nothing looked wrong with the nerve when he took it out. Why would he still take it out if it looked OK? But the worst thing of all is my foot is much worse now than it ever was before surgery. Now not only do I have the same numbness but I also have awful pain, swelling, and stinging sensations from the surgery. I still do today 10 months later. I never had any of that before the surgery. I don’t know if my foot will ever be the same again. I wished I had never had it done. I heard that a second surgery to correct neuroma surgery will make your foot even worse. I have read and heard from other doctors that it is so bad to cut a nerve out of your foot and to never do it. I wished I would’ve done more investigating before having surgery but I trusted the doctor. I’m now stuck with a bum foot the rest of my life unless it miraculously gets better over the years. A big difference from what the doctor told me that I would be OK in a few weeks! It took me eight months after surgery to actually be able to walk on it without it killing me. Some days are better than others but I always can feel it and know there’s something more wrong with it now than ever before. Always get a second opinion. I wished I had.?

He is very friendly and open making for a good environment for a meaningful patient-Doctor discussion. He has a reasonable approach and is not quick to suggest expensive or invasive procedures, unlike some other Podiatrists . He was even open to the concept that my foot pain may originate as a compensation mechanism for the 1/2 inch my other leg lost from a total knee replacement. I sense no ego, allowing him to offer the best suggestions whether he came up with them or not.

I just love this doctor. He is very personable, empathetic, and knowledgeable. I was diagnosed with Halux Limitus recently and he explained everything, as well as gave me all options. I have seen him a few times, and plan on keeping him as my podiatrist
