Dr. Kent Mercado is an outstanding, kind generous and brilliant podiatrist. I had seen numerous podiatrist in an effort to resolve a serve foot problem I had for years.Dr.Mercado performed surgery on my foot using a technique which he developed and it resolved the problem. Other podiatrists were baffled. They had no idea what to do. In 1 visit Dr. Mercado developed an action plan and began implementation on the following visit. I had other health problems unrelated to my foot, yet he worked and performed surgery with those issues foremost on his mind. The Operating Room was filled with other podiatrists and staff, that Doctor was teaching his technique too. BTW, he cleared this with me prior to surgery. He does medical missions for the poor, starving people in the world. He is a very generous man with his ability and time. His bed side manner is outstanding. I am getting better on every passing visit and I feel bad as I have look foreword to seeing him and his team every time I go in for follow up. He is an old school doctor with high tech and modern medical techniques. I can’t recommend him high enough.
