  • Doppler, wound care and patient information & sincere care contacting the associates who will be involved to save my leg*.

“Dr. Harwood was the point-man. Medically speaking things just where not happening. He personally called (now after 6pm) an associate to come back and do a Doppler on my leg*. She was kind and without a doubt concerned. Wish I could have got her name but regardless surgery will be scheduled Tuesday Dec.16 to have a procedure called a Fem-Pop By -Pass. Thank-you to Dr. Harwood and your Medical personnel who really helped. There were tests and other professionals involved but a heart felt thanks to Dr. Harwood.”

  • Plantar Fasciitis

“I've never written a review, but I feel strongly about the outstanding care I received from this doctor. Dr. Harwood treated me for plantar fasciitis with outstanding results. My job requires me to be on my feet almost ten hours a day. The pain I was experiencing was very intense. So much so, it hurt to drive. Dr. Harwood LISTENED to my concerns, spoke in terms that do not require a medical degree and provided me with a solid course of action. His care was spot on, and my pain has been under control. Additionally, the office staff is very nice and seem to be happy to see every person that walks through the door.
