Dr. Jeffrey A Szczepanski

I am a retired, 100% Disabled Air Force Veteran. I have seen and dealt with 100s of doctors over my 25 years in the military and the 13 I have been retired. The bottom line up front is, I would NOT recommend this office/doctor to anyone!!! I have called my insurance company to cancel my approved visits. The following are the reasons: 1) Dr-- Patient interaction. I had a referred appointment back in Oct (2022) and it lasted all of 5 mins. The doctor was quick to assess and when I offered background/photos, he cut me off, saying it doesn't matter, he already knows what he wants to do. He said he would get radiology pics but the order has yet to be submitted although I have called several times. 2) Patient Customer Service- I have called and left several messages. In the beginning, I did speak with someone and they had a hard time finding my record and even admitted the notes didn't make sense. I was told I would be called back i have not, yet. We have choices and I choose to not give my time, medical welfare, not my insurance money to any place were the above seems to be the norm.

This was several years ago, but he operated on bone spurs in my left ankle. He did such a lousy job that I’ve since had SIX more surgeries on it, and last week had to have the joint replaced. Bedside manner was poor - I complained of pain, he did it was normal. Wrote him after one the subsequent procedures to let him know what he’d done to me. Gave him specific times NOT to all as I recuperated. He called me at exactly that time — I believe so he could leave a message an say he tried. Very unprofessional. Stay away!

dr S. is a very talented, knowledgeable podiatrist. he's taken care of my diabetic neuropathy feet for more then 5 years. happy to say both feet yet.

Doctor saw me for 2 minutes, charged me $100 and refused to treat my problem. Receptionist lied when I asked if a preexisting condition would be a problem and brought me in under false pretenses.

Staff was very nice when I went in there. Had an appointment in July, called a month later (as the Dr asked me to do) to tell them my fractured foot is getting worse and was curious what the next step was. I left a message on the nurses line, didn't hear anything so I called a week later and asked the receptionist to have someone call me back. She said she would take care of it. A month later I still haven't heard anything and just scheduled an appointment with a different podiatrist in town. I would not reccomend them to anyone. They don't care about their patients. Since there is no way to reply to your comment I will here. You called me yesterday after I posted this. It shouldn't have had to take this to get you to call me.

Dr. Jeff is very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. He took time to educate me about my foot ailment in a simple and understandable way. It was my 1st experience with a podiatrist and I would highly recommend him if you are having any problems with your feet

He took care of my severely arthritic big toe and explained everything he was going to do before surgery.

I went to a prominent orthopedic surgeon with an unstable and very painful ankle and was told it was arthritis and, basically, to learn to live with it. It was near constant pain and I could not walk distances or on sand at all, which is terrible in Northern Michigan. Devastated, I avoided a second opinion for a year. I am so glad I did get a second opinion from Dr. Szczepanski, who said, "I think I can help." I had ankle repair surgery two years ago, and even immediately after surgery I had less pain than I did going in. Now, two years post-op, I have ZERO ankle pain or instability. I have my life back! THANK YOU!

Amazing experience seeing Dr. Szczepanski! He is very knowledgeable, kind, patient and explains everything very well. Gave multiple treatment options and didn't pressure me into having surgery (which was my concern in seeing a podiatrist in the first place).

He was so caring, kind, and truly gave me high quality care. Best bedside manner out of any doctor I have ever been to. Truly considers all options for treatment and puts the patient first.
