“AMAZING!!!”
As an ex-NFL Football player for 7 years I understand a thing or two about foot alignment, ingrown nails, and orthotics. When my 2 year old son broke his leg and had to walk with a cast from his ankle to his hip for a month he developed a bad habit of walking with his ankle turned out. I waited a month then decided to call for help. We found Dr. Rambacher online and set an appointment. In one visit, covered by insurance, he fixed it all! HE is a genius!! Orthotics are a game changer!!!

I had a toenail fungus for 6 years and over the years I saw many many doctors trying to get rid of it, but none of them were able to. I started seeing Dr. Rambacher a little over 2 years ago. In one year he was able to get rid of the fungus completely with lasers and medication. In the second year he got my toe nails to grow back completely healthy. I would recommend Dr. Rambacher to anyone!

I had a severe bunion in my left foot. I scheduled an appointment with an orthopedic surgeon to perform a bunionectomy which would have required me to stay off my foot for a whole month, before slowly integrating walking. I found Dr. Rambacher two weeks before that surgery, and immediately scheduled with him. Post-op was tough... but he made the process manageable. I was walking within 2 weeks. I have so much more mobility in my feet now and am very active - happy feet!

I remember hearing once that a patient will remember less than 20% of what they hear at a doctors office. This leads to a feeling of being confused and less confidence to continue ones own care. The first time I left Dr. Rambacher, he gave me clear and comprehensive directions. Upon future visits, he again would leave me with written homework or instructions. Now that I have come to expect this, I can rest assured that I am in good hands and that he knows and will guide me to any next steps.

Dr. Rambacher did an excellent job on my foot arch surgery. He applied a nerve block, and so I still have no pain 2 days later. I looked at the surgical site today at my follow-up appointment, and it looks great. It's not oozing, and my foot isn't even swollen. I highly recommend him.

One of the things I liked about Dr. Rambacher is he got directly to the problem without having to do too many tests, and it was all done in a timely manner. Getting an appointment was super easy, they were very accomadative with my schedule and getting a time that was convenient for me. I trust him completely.

I went to Dr. Rambacher for an unrelated issue and he picked up on a chronic issue I was having that my ortho doctor wasn't dealing with and did an assessment. He was right on with his assessment and pursued treatment that took care of the issue. My Ortho doc denied the problem but eventually agreed with everything Dr Rambacher said. Dr Rambacker is thorough in his review, treatments and explanations. I cannot say enough wonderful things about him.

Dr Rambacher spends time examining and talking to you. I have never felt rushed. He thoroughly explains the diagnosis and treatment plan. During my treatment he had read new research about my diagnosis and changed the treatment plan to meet these new guidelines. I have visited him for plantar fasciitis and toenail issues. His office staff is friendly and helpful. Love this office and would highly recommend him to anyone!

The process was easy, comfortable and did not impact my schedule. I was very confident in Dr. Rambacher's direction and ability to preform the surgery. I was so satisfied that I had both feet treated by him and I would advise anyone who is in need of a podiatrist or surgical procedure to seek consultation with Dr. Rambacher.

After having my bunions removed, I didn't realize how bad my feet actually were before. I was so used to do dealing with pain in my feet from surfing. I can't even believe this is how a foot normally feels. And my toes are straight, it may sound stupid but I really didn't think my feet could look and feel like this. Not only did DrRambacher make me feel comfortable. He treated me like I was the only patient he had that day. He took the time to sit down and listen to all my concerns. I'm ecstatic

i came to Dr Rambacher, thinking i had a fungal issue with my toenail. another Dr had treated it previously with no results. Dr Rambacher investigated more thoroughly and determined it was nothing fungal related and instead suggested another course of treatment. i'm thrilled to have a normal looking toenail again!
