Report
Literally, the worst and most dishonest doctor I have ever met. He incorrectly diagnosed me with a broken bone so he could gouge my insurance. Four other doctors said it obviously wasn't broken. He used all of my insurance benefits so I was forced to use all of my savings to pay for the real treatment I needed. I went home home with many things I didn't actually need. Also, I am still getting bills and finding out he charged my insurance for things he never even gave me.
Also, his secretary makes his orthotics, not him. They were so useless, I had to throw them away and pay for new ones

I broke my heel and had surgery which went well but I had persisting problems with the wound and pain in my heel. Turns out I had an infection around the screws off and on for three years after the initial surgery. I saw three other doctors who basically said it was just slowly healing and didn't pursue further action. He actually diagnosed the infection by doing cultures and an MRI and was honest and helpful throughout the process of combatting the infection. The situation was very serious because it was a bone infection. Within a month or so, he performed surgery to remove the two screws causing

Skilled doctor.but dishonest. While his face is dripping with sincerity and he is telling you all he wants is for you to feel better, he is trying to sell you something you do not need. Dr. Nik is obsessed with selling cash items. He'll tell you you can get your money back if you aren't satisfied but it's usually a lie because they'll say it's used. He will do anything to sell you crap that may not have anything to do with what's wrong with you. Can't afford his over-priced stuff, no problem, they'll take 2 payments? Still no? They'll give you a discount

Dr. Nikravesh is the only Podiatrist I consider for any emergencies. He has helped me with a left ankle fracture and a second time he helped me with a ligament issue. Both times, he treated me with 100% professionalism and dedication. I have referred loved ones to him and everyone is very satisfied.
