“Knowledgeable and personable”
Came in for a cyst (peanut sized) operation. Dr. Carter removed it and in 10 days time I returned to my routine. Her instructions were clear and concise. Incision healed and I have no pain! 5 STARS!!!

“A+ Podiatrist & Visit”
I have seen Dr. Carter twice for my foot problem. She always takes her time explaining in detail my condition and never makes the visit feel rushed. After seeing her, my foot was better within days and I was on my feet feeling better. I would definitely recommend her to friends and family.

“Dr. Carter gives quality care”
Dr. Carter was able to diagnose and clear the problem of a toe nail with fungus under neath that needed to be removed. Her followup was excellent and her advise is excellent. WE highly recommend her.
