Susan M.

Dr. Vargas recently did a bunion/hammertoe surgery on both of my feet. The outcome of this surgery is even better than what I had hoped for. Dr. Vargas is a very compassionate and caring surgeon. He listens to his patients and provides them with the best care possible. This surgery is allowing me to resume the active lifestyle that I want and I am pain free. I highly recommend Dr. Vargas and his staff.

Norma R.

I had foot surgery by Dr. Troy Vargas on March 29, 2018. I had a very positive experience & would highly recommend Dr. Vargas to anyone considering foot surgery. After hearing numerous negative comments regarding foot surgery outcomes I was quite apprehensive. Dr. Vargas explained my upcoming surgery in great detail and answered with patience all my questions and concerns. Following my surgery with each follow up appointment Dr. Vargas took the time to address any questions and concerns. He’s very personable & positive with a great sense of humor. He has an excellent support staff who you can count on to assist you in any way to make your experience a positive one. I’m in my third month of recovery and pleased with my progress while I’m in physical therapy. I look forward to a full recovery. Norma R.

I had 2 foot reconstructive surgeries performed by Dr. Vargas to fix a botched first surgery with a different doctor. I wouldn’t be where I am today without his care. I couldn’t have asked for a better doctor/surgeon who truly cares about his patients. He always gave me as much time as I needed to address any questions I had. He was confident in his plan of action and had a solution for everything. I had full faith in him. Thank you for everything you have helped me achieve, like playing soccer several times a week.

I had bilateral hammer toe surgery by Dr. Vargas on April 20, 2017 at Woodwinds and had exceptional results! All my toes are straight and after suffering for years with deformities and pain and wearing Dr. Comfort shoes and foam in between my toes, I am free of all of that and according to Dr. Vargas — I can wear whatever shoes I want!  Now I am only held back by my hips and my back, but my foot surgery was very successful and Dr. Vargas was caring and explained everything in a clear manner, and they were available if I needed to reach them. They are the best! I give them my highest endorsement!

I had foot surgery on May 6th, 2016. Dr. Vargas was my doctor and I can not say enough about the surgery. It took a short time. The surgery was to remove a bunion. It was painless and the recovery has been great. I am diabetic and have to be careful with my feet. No worries, with the care I received from Dr. Vargas and his assistant Jenna. Thanks to you both! Very happy.
