Our Philosophy, and How We’re Different
Since 1917, San Mateo Podiatry Group has delivered excellence in foot and ankle care to generations of families across the San Francisco Peninsula.
We believe that excellent care requires time, transparency, and a partnership between patients and their Doctor. Most large hospital health systems and standard practices today are built on volume, catering to insurance companies with long wait times, rushed visits, and outdated treatments.
We reject that model to keep patients active and moving, helping them meet their goals with research-proven, state-of-the-art technology combined with expert counseling, real relationships, creating uncompromising results.
Our Commitment to You, and What We Deliver
- Upfront Financial Clarity: Medical billing should never cause you anxiety.
- We work to maximize your insurance benefits, but the reality is that health insurance coverage is never a guarantee of payment. We provide the most accurate, good-faith estimate possible.
- For our proprietary, state-of-the-art treatments, you will always receive exact, transparent pricing upfront.
- We Work for You, Not Insurance Companies: Our Doctor’s clinical decisions are driven strictly by what is best for you, not by what an insurance company policy dictates.
- Unhurried Clinical Excellence: Your time is valuable, and your time with the doctor is protected so you can be heard, accurately diagnosed, and thoroughly counseled.
- Research Proven Regenerative, Not Outdated, Care: We don’t just mask pain; we provide therapeutic value and hope for a full recovery. We utilize the most advanced, research-backed therapies to heal injuries at the fundamental level so you can get your life back.
Your Commitment to Us
- Partnership in Healing: Advanced medicine only works if you do your part. We expect our patients to communicate openly and actively follow their prescribed treatment protocols.
- Mutual Respect: Just as we protect your scheduled time, we expect the same respect for our clinic’s time, staff, and resources.
- Valuing Outcomes Over Mandates: We work with patients who want the absolute highest quality treatment for their foot and ankle, not just the cheapest, outdated treatment their insurance plan allows.
