Gregory Grant, DPM

I agree with Janet. Dr. Grant IS a caring individual and I can’t complain one bit over the treatment I have received. I have seen Dr. Grant twice, once for a loose toenail and this last time for a severe ulcer under one toe.

This was NOT my experience with Dr. Grant. I found him very warm and caring. I wouldn’t hesitate to see him again or recommend him to family and friends.

If I could give Dr. Grant less than one star, I would. I had an appointment with him about 6 years ago, on a strong recommendation from a doctor at Pac Med that I really trust.
I have a stiff big toe, hallux limitus, if you will. Which just means stiff toe. It’s been developing for the last 14 years now, and had been developing for 8 years at the time of my appointment with this doctor.
He barely looked at my foot. He didn’t lay a finger on it. He didn’t request an x-​ray. What he did tell me, and I quote, was this, «Mrs. Benson, your problem is that you don’t want to get old.»
Really, doctor who claims to love mountaineering on his website? That’s my problem? I was 32 years old, fit, a newly wed and I couldn’t even walk a few miles –much less mountaineer — because I was in so much pain. He told me there was nothing I could do beyond fusing the joint and that only an orthotic would help (it didn’t). I left his office crying, he was such a jerk.
6 more years and my hip, pelvic floor, and knee completely out of whack because of my condition, I steeled myself to the mission of finding a foot doctor who would at the very least x-​ray my foot and give me an opinion that was something more than «You are getting old». My new doctor, the first one I saw, ordered x-​rays immediately, took one look, and said I should’ve had surgery years ago.
I am one week out from having the spur on my joint removed, and my toe already has more mobility than it has in YEARS. I am so excited to be able to walk more than a mile again after I heal more. I just can’t believe I took this Dr. Grant’s word for that long and did nothing but damage the cartilage a little further. Don’t make the same mistake I did! See someone else who is truly into preserving the body after an injury so that you can be active for years to come.
I would strongly recommend my podiatrist in favor of Dr. Grant, but I’ve relocated to the Bay Area so she’s down here! Good luck in your search for someone who cares and isn’t an agist, sexist jerk.
