Dr. Ryan Carter, DPM Patient Testimonials,

Dr. Carter encompasses all the invaluable traits that make him a great Doctor; compassion, knowledge, relatability, sincerity, honorability. Hopefully these qualities will rub off on a seasoned Doctor who places money before the wellbeing of the practice’s pstients.

I recently had a visit to see Dr. Carter. Everything went very smooth. He was able to perform my procedure the same day without any issues. Very impressed with the office and the staff. Highly recommended for any foot or ankle problem!

Dr. Carter was great. From the moment he entered the room, he was very professional but friendly. As a guy who often overlooks his feet, it is a little awkward to be sitting/laying in a very elevated chair and having another guy handling my feet. Dr. Carter was very calming and took the awkwardness out of it by casually conversing with me the entire time about mutual interests while also explaining what he was doing, and afterwards explaining what I could do to prevent a repeat. The nurse or physician's assistant who initially called me in to the exam room was equally professional. The first receptionist who checked me in and provided me with the paperwork to complete was friendly and nice. Unfortunately she did not return. Another receptionist took over for her and seemed to have a more abrasive personality. Her answers to my questions were curt and very short. She does not represent your practice as well as everyone else I interacted with.

Dr. Ryan Carter is the best! It is awkward to have another guy handling your feet, but Dr. Carter explained everything that he was doing and how/when I might feel pain. Then he found items of mutual interest for us to talk about. Afterwards there was a little bruising, but three days later I was good as new. Almost everyone I interacted with was very pleasant except for one woman at the reception desk. The woman who checked me in for my appointment was friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately another woman took over for her, and the second woman was a little curt in her responses and was unfriendly.

I will be returning and there is no higher endorsement on my part. If I am not satisfied with medical services I do not hesitate to change providers. Simply put, Dr. Carter was terrific and the staff was very efficient and courteous.

Coming to your Santa Monica office on Feb. 20 was very hard time wise. We got stuck in traffic along Santa Monica Blvd. for 2 hours.

My next appointment will be at 1245 Wilshire Blvd., Los Angeles.

Dr. Carter and the staff were very nice and communicated everything clearly. Never felt rushed. Wait time wasn't too bad. Felt that Dr. Carter explained everything and took all the steps necessary to address my condition and make me feel good about my outcome.
