Where to start... Dr. Borgman is a treasure. How do I thank someone who has basically given me my life back in so many ways. She listens very carefully and her answers to my questions have always made sense. She has steered me in the right directions and has been understanding about all my needs. She is a sincere woman. She has in many ways truly given me the ability to live my life with as little pain or worry as possible. Dr. Borgman is a one in a million. So fortunate to have found her. Yes, I recommend Dr. Borgman as often as I can. In fact I was recently told that someone I had recommend Dr. Borgman to had tried to make an appointment with her but could not be seen until '25. I encouraged her to call back and take the appointment anyway. She plans on doing that.

Dr. Winkler and the staff were professional and courteous. They were able to give a thorough exam while attending to my questions. I'll give them a great thumbs up! My second appointment with Dr. Winkler was great. The entire staff made me feel comfortable and confident. Dr Winkler is again, professional with a great consultation. I do not believe there is a better DPM. Thanks to all.

What a pleasant experience! From the moment I walked into the offices, The entire staff was so friendly and helpful. Did I mention friendly. I felt like I had been going there for years. Then meeting the Dr., He was unbelievably friendly, insightful and seemed to genuinely care about getting to the bottom of the issue rather than sending me home with a prescription bandage. I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Winkler and his staff.

Excellent experience with Dr. Winkler. Answered all my questions, gave excellent advice/suggestions for my foot pain. Never felt rushed as I do with other doctors. Very personable. Took the time to explain what was going on with my feet by reviewing my X-rays with me. Highly recommend Dr. Winkler.

I started going to this practice after going often with my Mom. Absolutely love Dr Winkler…and Evelyn at Thomaston office is always such a joy, she even helps walk mom out to car if needed..we enjoy a usual mundane medical office visit here!

Dr Winkler is an amazing podiatrist and amazing human being. He takes the time to listen to your concerns. Never feels like he's rushing me out of there. I have a lot of faith in him as a doctor

Dr. Winkler is a god send podiatrist and I truly cannot describe him in words but here’s a try. So after entering the premises and filling out the paperwork, my wife and I along with our baby boy were directed to the examination room where X-rays were taken on my right ankle that had been bothering me and everything was smooth. Five minutes later Dr. Winkler entered the room and right away put my mind to ease after carefully examining my foot. I wouldn’t be lying if I said to me he seemed literally like god no joke explaining my condition and calming me down throughout the conversation. Prescribed me physical therapy, gave me the option of custom made shoe inserts and orthotics, educated me on what sneakers to buy such as hokas, new balance etc., and explained me what to modify in my lifestyle depending on the condition. He is also great with family members that you bring in to the visit along with you. He is extremely knowledgeable, supportive, and just very friendly and kind who also knows a lot about modern day stressors to the foot and modern fashionable sneakers that can heal the issue. A deep Breath of fresh air is what you are Dr. Winkler and even if your office is an hour away and there being multiple podiatrists close to where I live, I will continue to come to you. Even if you moved to Denver, California, Utah or Texas I’d take a flight and come to you. You simply are the best and I was able to deduce that from one single visit. I truly urge everyone to try Dr. Winkler and his staff (Stephanie) and others if you’re going through any foot problems. They will not disappoint you I Guarantee that. Thank you Dr. Winkler for being a wonderful Doctor as well as a great human being. I wish you all the best in life and your practice. Cheers
