“I am really grateful to the staff and doctor!”
This place is awesome! I’ve had problems with ingrown nails forever and Dr. Petkov took care of them without any pain. The staff is really nice and so the doctor.
*the bonus they gave me awesome fuzzy socks at the end of my procedure*

“A+”
The Premier Podiatry staff excels in the customer service department. They truly put your comfort as a patient first. My daughter was extremely upset and fussy when I first brought her here. But the staff is so patient, caring, and professional that I have to recommend them. My family members will forever be loyal patients of Dr. Petkov.

“Professional, caring & honest”
I brought my mother for an ankle sprain (after I had seen the doctor myself months ago.) She was just as happy with him as I was. Xrays were taken in the office which saved us a trip to an imaging center. Dr. Petkov showed them to us and went over all the details. Him and his medical assistant took great care of my mom. I am very thankful!!! She is all better thanks to their care and attention.
