Drucker Mark DPM

I had a short, yet comprehensive visit with Dr. Drucker and he was courteous, knowledgable and made a copy of my x-​rays on CD. He assured me my feet were not very bad (nothing like I feared) and that was a relief. I appreciated him and his kind staff, who seemed to understand my tears of relief. Based on my experience, I would recommend him!

I have been seeing Dr. Drucker for over 22 years. He is an excellent practitioner and knows his stuff! I had a very successful bilateral bunionectomy 22 years ago and I’m so appreciative that I have been able to travel and walk everywhere. He’s the best!

I appreciated Dr. Drucker’s office fitting me in a couple of days before Thanksgiving, even though I had never been to the office before. Dr. Drucker was quick and efficient in checking out a broken toe, showing me how to bandage it, and dealing with an ingrown toenail that had turned nasty. His staff are friendly and efficient. Aside from the quirk of not taking credit cards, there was nothing unexpected and my toes are much happier for visiting Dr. Drucker. I’ll definitely go back if any other issues arise.

After living with a very painful joint in my foot for several months, I was diagnosed with a condition known as hallux limitis or hallux rigidus. As a very active person, I knew I needed to do something to alleviate the pain and allow me to get back to my regular level of activity. After talking with both podiatrists & orthopedists, and being offered a multitude of treatments (physical therapy, orthotics, anti-​inflammatory med, cortisone injection) several friends recommended Dr. Drucker in San Rafael. He listened to my concerns and then recommended a joint replacement as the best procedure for me. I learned that he has been doing this particular procedure for over 20 years. I guess experience really does matter, as I am now pain free and back to my normal activities.

Bare minimum care here. I met the doctor and made an point to explain my concerns and share my need for quality foot care. With incredibly high arches, I experience ongoing pain in several parts of my feet & ankles.
Dr Drucker acted uninterested in hearing what I had to say, then ordered orthotics (a good thing) and sent me home, never to call and check up on me again. Needless to say, the orthotics are not helping and my feet require further care. When I called the office to inform the receptionist that I was picking up my X-​rays, she said she’d be in the office at 1pm after lunch. I arrived at 1:05pm to find the waiting room full of confused (mature) women waiting for their appointment, and nobody in the office. Two employees finally entered the building at 1:30pm saying «they had a really bad morning, and that was why they were 30 minutes late.» No apologies or explanations. Their voicemail message says they’re open from 9−5pm with lunch from 12−1pm. Apparently my appointment at 1:00pm wasn’t important to them because they were having a «bad day.» The doctor wasn’t in the office that day. I wonder if his receptionists take extra long lunches when he is there!
Unprofessional, and uninterested in anything but collecting your money.

What a great Doctor and as professional as it can be. The procedure was smooth with zero discomfort. (Major Right Toe Reverse Nail Growth From Bad Lazer Treatment) Also, a personality that makes your visit more enjoyable. The office staff is awesome. You will not be dissappointed.
Great practice.

Going back over 20 years to the 90s… Dr. Drucker did bunionectomies on both my feet (different years) and my feet turned out fabulous! He is a talented surgeon. I liked his directness. He told me my bones healed so quickly, that he brought my x-​rays back to a conference in NY to show them off!

Sadly, I think his time has come. He treated me for over a year for warts… when I asked him why they weren’t going away, he said «don’t worry, it’s not cancer.»
Finally found an amazing DPM in SF and after using the correct medicine, my feet look new!

I came back from a trip outside the country with a foot infection. I could not put any weight on my foot.
No one could have been more concerned about treatment than Dr. Drucker. He was monitoring the progress of the antibiotic treatment, called me at home to see how I was doing, and when the antibiotic did not seem to be working fully, he called in an infectious disease specialist to make certain the right antibiotic was applied. Needless to say, my foot was cured. He is one of a vanishing breed of doctors who care for their patients, not their pocketbooks. After the treatment finished, he told me the injury was serious enough that if the antibiotic had not worked, he thought I would end up requiring treatment in the hospital or facing death.

Be ware of Mark Drucker. Dr. Drucker did a routine bunion surgery on my foot, afterwards I still had pain. Finally gave up on Dr. Drucker and found a new podiatrist. It turns out that I did not have a simple bunion, but something much more complex. When the new doctor went in my foot to revise Dr. Drucker’s surgery and remove the screw he had put in my foot, it turned out that Dr. Drucker had stripped the screw head when he put it in my bone and it was impossible to take the screw out. Plus, because I wasted so much time with the first surgery and recovery the joint on my toe is completely worn down and will never recover.

I am three weeks into recovery after having foot surgery. Wow, I put in an end of the year request for surgery (the pain had become unbearable and we had met our out of pocket). Dr. Drucker’s incredible staff worked me in and he worked his surgical skills to give me an almost pain free experience. It’s only been 3 weeks and my foot feels and looks great.
Believe me, I’m a tough critic of doctors and I will not let poor medical care go unmentioned. I love it when it’s all great.
The surgery center was also top notch — not one complaint. My only disappointment was, the anesthesiologists were out of network and therefore not covered at all. Whatever, they used — was excellent. I woke up instantly with no side effects. I like that.
I would recommend Dr. Drucker to everyone — professional, skilled, nice and a good sense of humor and a great staff.
