Reading Foot & Ankle Specialists, PC

I am actually writing a review of Dr. Kellerman’s new business partner, Dr. Caroline Gauthier, DPM. Dr. Gauthier performed complex, flat foot reconstruction surgery on my 14 year old daughter last July. She did an amazing job, putting an arch in my daughter’s foot where there previously was none. Besides her surgical skills, which I am not as educated to laud, her bedside manner is amazing! How uncommon to find a surgeon with wonderful bedside skills. She truly cares about her patients. She will perform the same surgery on my daughter’s other foot this spring. We would trust no one else.
Of note, Dr. Gauthier was with her former practice in Chelmsford when she first treated my daughter. She has made a better move for herself in joining this established, albeit a bit old school practice. She was legally prevented from telling her existing patients that she was leaving, threatened with lawsuits by her former employer. In telling us her story, she was near tears in her regrets that she could not contact patients who had just had surgery or were pending surgery. It took a bit of searching for us to locate her, finally finding her on Linked In.
She is worth the search! She is not in it to make a few extra bucks off of you, suggesting all kinds of sprays, lotions, special nail polish – that you may not necessarily need. I got this feeling from her former practice.
I would recommend Dr. Gauthier to anyone with chronic foot problems and I am trusting her with my child once again.
She is able to admit to Lowell General for the year as well as Winchester Hospital.
Congratulations to Dr. Kellerman for making a great choice in adding Dr. Gauthier to his practice.

I had been having severe pain in my left foot and the achilles area for over a year before I went to see Dr. Kellerman. I had let it go untreated because I’ve gained some weight over the past few years and I assumed that was what was causing it. I also figured there was no sense seeking treatment until i lost the weight, so I basically just lived with the pain.
Anyway, I went to see Dr. Kellerman for a different problem (an ingrown toenail) and seeing as I was already there, I mentioned the foot/​leg problem to him. He checked it out and told me he could fix me up in a few weeks. Having been in pain for over a year, I was skeptical.
Anyway, he gave me some anti-​inflammatory medicine and some exercises to do, as well as some inserts for my shoes. Also recommended a particular type of shoe. I followed all of his instructions and within two or three weeks the pain was completely gone. I couldn’t believe it — it feels like it was never injured at all.
Dr. Kellerman and his staff were all great. I can’t recommend highly enough.
