Dr. Tunnat is very polite and gentle to my feet and he also X-rayed my feet and I was able to see how badly deformed they were and it was kind of him to explain in case I'll need surgery. I came back to him after 20 years because I trust him to do the best and right treatment. Thank you

Sandra is thorough and polite, so you know you are off to a great start from the moment you make your appointment and throughout your office visit. Dr. Tunnat had the perfect bedside manner and will find out exactly what you need. When I first went to the Evanston Foot and Ankle Clinic 10 years ago my feet and ankles were in the worst shape--today they are strong and healthy!

Was told that there was no use removing callouses because they come back, true! Kennett told me to get exray Then he gave me a cortisone shot which did nothing. My new Doctor went straight to the problem and eleviated my pain instantly That I've endured over 4 months just by a visual diagnosis. All the running around and painful cortisone shot would have been avoided if if went to new Doctor first.

This is the second time I've seen Dr. Tunnat. The first was ok, not great. I was 15 minutes early and didn't have a long wait. He wrapped my foot for tendon pain. He charged me for a compression sock for the opposite leg. No receipt. I asked for a note to my supervisor explaining my difficulty in walking. He wrote a very general note that didn't sway or lessen the walking at all. Today, I had a 9am appointment. I walked in at 9:03. Yes, late. He says to his office staff, loud enough for me and another patient to hear, "She's late for her 9 o'clock appointment!" The office staff person said, "It
