West Beverly Podiatry Group

I give Dr. Vega 10 stars if I could… And his office staff is amazing. You just need to have a good attitude in your own personal life.
I had a bone spur in my heel. I work on my feet all day long. I work in Surgery. I began having pain almost a year ago. The pain was so bad, it took my smile and my laughter away. I didn’t find Dr. Vega until I needed a second opinion. I had 3 injections into my foot by the first Podiatrist, and he said I would need surgery if the injections fail. That would have meant 2 months off of work for me… I work for a professional medical agency, no paid time off if, I had to go to surgery…
I am also an avid Golfer… so to have 2 months off for surgery would have been more time off to play my favorite sport.
I thank Dr. Vega. for all his support and listening to my needs…
I will not have to surgery because of his efforts.
Dr. Vega does not believe in sending his patients straight to surgery without putting forth his medical knowledge to cure you first through his office practices.
Thank you Dr. Vega for all you have done for me.
If you want a Podiatrist that cares, go see Dr. Vega,

I am so happy to have found Dr. Michael Vega at West Beverly Podiatry Group. I have suffered from severe ingrown toenail’s for years. The pain was so great at times I couldn’t even walk. It affected my track career and my work. I went to see Dr. Vega and was extremely pleased. His office staff were so kind and helpful at booking an appointment with my hectic schedule. Dr vega was very professional and knowledgeable. He treated my toenails on both feet and have not had a problem with my feet ever sense. I’m so happy to look at my toes and see pretty toes instead of infected painful ones. Thank you Dr. Vega and west Beverly for all that you did for me. Your Comunity is lucky to have you and I will be referring my friends with a happy heart

Dr Vega is awesome. Very professional, and knows what he’s talking about. Honestly the reviews I read almost made me deter, but when you really read them its about the front desk, and not the doctor or should I say doctors. The reviews that mention the doctors say their doctor experience was actually good. I personally had no issues with the front desk, so again not sure if these reviews are 100% true, or more about bad experiences from a combination of events. My only issue was my insurance needed to authorize the visit, and that took forever due to my insurance, but again that wasn’t the doctor’s fault. Anyway, I highly recommend. I was in and out quickly, and had a great convo with Dr Vega, which made it a great experience all around.

Dr. Vega is a very professional and caring doctor. Im not sure why there are bad reviews about the front desk, but they do their job with no problems. Yes they are female but that doesnt automatically make them a «b! $#&». Females are everywhere and i felt very welcomed when i visited. And im pretty sure them getting laid is really nobodys buisness. Thanks Dr. Vega! Your a terrific doctor

This place is horrible they dont even deserve my review but i don’t want people going there thinking they will get good care. The front staff is very unprofessional and i agree with everyones comments about the front staff. They really need to hire someone more qualified for this kind of job.

Personally I liked Dr Gath but that front office staff has to go they are flakey, unprofessional, unfriendly and they bully the patients, I can stand my own but I feel bad for the elderly patients who can’t defend themselves.
Two comments:
#1 — If there is an office policy make sure it is posted somewhere for all the patients to see and be aware of prior or described on the new patient paperwork
#2 — If you are going to charge for a cancelled appt not within the 24hrs you better be sure the appts are running on time, because if a patient has to wait an hour or more to see the Doctor, it is not fair to the patient as their time is valuable as well

Dr. Michael Vega is an excelente Podiatrist (foot doctor) and surgent… he help my 16 year old daughter get her feet back to normal. At 14 yrs old, she had flat feet and bunions but because of the flat feet her bunions was forced out so far that her feet looked deformed. First they made her orthotics to creare an arch and then he perform a detailed surgery to correct her feet. Now her feet look normal and her scars are barely noticable :)
I highly recommend the professional Doctor.

I have to say that Dr. Vega was really good and he took care of my concerns.
I am very happy with the outcome of my visit and my orthotics.
I would definitely return if needed.
Very professional and clean office and very knowledgable doctor.
The only reason why I did not give him a 5 star was because the girls in the front aren’t as friendly as can be and kind of stuck up I agree.

Wow. The comment below stating that nothing but «hostile females working here» is dead on. Even on the phone they are extremely rude and they talk over you and cut you off. I paid a $ 50.00 hold fee in Feb. It took them months to return my phone calls. I was finally fed up and told them I wanted a refund. Thats when they said they would have a manager call me back. Its July and I am just now getting my appointment for surgery.
I am editing my review to include that the doctor that I dealt with was very nice and addressed my concerns. I have no issues there. If fact, the doctors get FOUR stars! However, my comment about the girls at the front desk stands.

Came to visit Dr. Vega twice already, I thought maybe the poor front desk service was terrible due to it being my first visit because of all paperwork I had to deal with, so I brushed it off… But this time around, it’s confirmed All members at the front desk are horrible! It’s a group of nothing but hostile females… Perhaps they need to get laid or something before clocking in?! I over heard the appointment clerk on the phone scheduling an appointment, once she hung up the phone she was mocking the patient and called her a B***h and rambled on to the girl next to her and they laughed about it! If I hadn’t paid for half of my insoles I would have never come back to this place! Unless you can bypass these idiots that work at the front desk — make an appointment. Oh yeah and these morons have you waiting over an hour pass your appointment time before you can see the doctor.

I have been going to Dr. Michael Vega for many years and have taken family members also. He is a knowledgeable, kind and thoughtful doctor. He is professional and treats his patients with great care. He answers all your questions and explains everything before he does anything. The office is clean, neat and very well organized. His staff are wonderful! Their professionalism is a an asset to the office. They are very thoughtful and kind. I highly recommend this office if you need foot care. You are in wonderful hands with the physician and the staff.

The Dr Ung is great the staff is not very good they call several times to verify ins
