Dr. Paden is a fantastic doctor and person. Very honest with all pros &cons of procedures. From my in-grown toenail today, and serious tendon injuries, broken bones in the past, I would recommend him or any of his partners for a person's foot pain. Thanks Dr. Matt!
Always have a good experience with Dr.padden.

Dr.Paden was on time for our appointment, explained in detail my ankle injury, discussed options for treatment and made a plan for my care. He proceeded collaboratively with me in compassion for my needs. I highly recommend him.
Very quick and professional
I had surgery in October 2021. I was warmly accepted and treated in January 2023 when I had trouble. Dr Paden was very willing to help me with my ankle problem. He is as understand ing and concerned today as he was in 2021. He is the very best and I highly recommend him
Dr. Paden was again great! I appreciate his no nonsense, practical, get it fixed approach. He’s made orthotics for me which helped tons with an inflamed nerve. I’m now training for a 200 mile hike and needed the next level of support with the said nerve. I’m truly grateful for his expertise!
Thorough examination and treatment plan.
