Tracey

Neuroma Patient

"I first started coming to Dr. Polansky about a year and a half ago for pain in my left foot and it was discovered that I had two neuromas and I had a very tiny bone in my foot that was problematic, ultimately, we discovered that it was cracked. Dr. Polansky was able to keep me relatively pain free but ultimately, I knew that surgery was going to be the final fix, so I put it off as long as I could, finally told him I was ready to have it done. The girls were great; the girls explained everything to me, the surgery went exactly how he said it would. It took care of the problem, I’ve had a full recovery and I couldn’t be happier."

Alice

Scarring Patient

"I started seeing Dr. Polansky in 2000 I believe and they call it I believe Keloid scarring which grows out of its boundart instead of like you know some peoples scars are white and this is like pink and very thick and very tender to touch. Then in the arch of my foot, it is really hard to get it under control because all of its weight and stuff, but Dr. Polansky would inject it. Dr. Polansky would wrap it in a wet cast for three solid years every week and he gave me medication, orthotics, I have braces to put pressure on it to try to shrink it within my skin and I had stepped on a piece of glass when I was sixteen and then I reinjured it in ’94 and I just didn’t want no more surgery because I had already had eight and it just gets bigger and bigger. He had come up with this treatment, Dr. Polansky came up with this treatment to try to shrink it without surgery, which he’s done."

Barbara

Flat Feet / Fracture

"Well I had gone to other doctor’s, especially there was two other ones and both of them had said alright well we’ll do that later, we’ll fix that part later and they were concentrating on my hammertoe or something else, they wasn’t talking about my flat foot and that’s what was the turning end when I was walking on the side of the bone and when I came to Dr. Polansky, all he did was look at it and right away he said “well here’s what we need to do, how does this feel?,” and he fixed it and I was afraid of the brace but there was no problem at all there, it was exactly the way he said it would be and I have been walking ever since, I stand in line without any pain, I mean I can walk now like normal people can and you come to Dr. Polansky for something and he will find it out every time because I came in and did not realize I had a fractured foot, my left foot was fractured and he was x-raying the right one to make sure the bone was getting alright and that’s when he found out the foot was fractured, so he fixed that too, I mean anything wrong with your feet, he knows it and he can fix it right away. You’re going to be okay then."

Diana

Arch Implant Patient

"I came to Dr. Polansky back in 2005 and I was having pain in my left foot and we tried two different procedures, he tried the foot inserts first and that helped out a great deal, but it didn’t totally get rid of the problem. We used the night splint and that helped somewhat too. It still didn’t get rid of the problem so we decided to go ahead and have the surgery in 2006. He built me a new arch and not it’s so much better. I was having pain in my foot anytime I walked and periodically throughout the day and now basically I am pain free. I can do anything I want, I can do jogging, exercising, bicycling and basic things that I just couldn’t do before the surgery, so it’s helped out a great deal."

Herb

Diabetic Patient

"Quite a few years ago, I had some trouble with my feet and I had another foot doctor, we lived over in another town, but since we moved here and had a doctor here and when I started having, I got diabetes and they don’t want me trimming my toenails, so my doctor recommended Dr. Polansky, so I’ve been coming here for that ever since and any other foot problems I have, he’s taken care of and I’m more than satisfied with everything that’s been done with me here."

Linda

Foot Infection

"It started out that I had something on my foot, on my left foot and it was between the toes and I thought, what is this? So I thought, well I don’t know what it is but it was all red and everything, so I thought well Dr. Polansky is a foot doctor, I will take, you know go out there and call him and see if he can get me in to see it. So I did and all of a sudden, he just looked at it and he pressed on it and the infection came out and I went and then I had to come back and Dr. Holsopple, that was one of the people that he had, she said she didn’t even know what it was. But, I came back again he said within three days, he says that will be well and it was, I don’t what he, he put something on it and he wrapped it up and he did very well on it and everybody that was concerned in his office does a very great job, they know their business, they do not you know spend any more time with you than they absolutely have to, but they are wonderful people and I give them and A+ all the way around."

Marcia

Crohn’s Disease Patient

"Originally I came to Dr. Swan because I had an ulceration on my right big toe that would not heal, so Dr. Swan treated that in an effort to try to get it to heel on its own. Unfortunately, I ended up having surgery about 18 months ago which I recovered from very well. I’ve also have to had, Dr. Swan also had different problems with my ingrown toenails mainly my biggest problem is just if I get a cut or any type of problem with my feet, then Dr. Swan has been treating those. I have difficulty sometimes in being on my feet because come to find out, I have a vascular problem and Dr. Swan has been very good about taking tests and referring me to the right specialist and things like that."

Michelle

Son’s Treatment

"My son started playing football in third grade. In fourth grade, we noticed that he had a lot of problems with pain in his heels and it ran up his lower back. He would cry at the end of football practice with all of the running that they had to do, so we brought him to Dr. Polansky. Dr. Polansky did x-rays on him and it turned out that he had fractured growth plates in both of his feet. He fit him for orthotics, gave him some boots to stretch his muscles and he is doing fantastic. He is fourteen getting ready to go in to freshman football and just set a record time for his mile run."

Ida

Foot pain

"For many years, I’ve had really bad foot pain and Dr. Polansky put seven pins in the left foot to realign it and without that, I probably wouldn’t be walking today and I’ve had numerous other foot problems, he’s taken care of them and Dr. Polansky to me, is a great professional person. When you come in here and see the staff, you feel like your among family and with Dr. Polansky and I couldn’t ask for a better office and staff. I’ve been really treated good over the years and I really appreciate them."

Robert

Hammertoe Patient

"Hammertoes and my, one of my toes was going over my big foot. My big toe, so it was causing some problems. So when I came to see Dr. Polansky, he told me what to expect and everything and that he was going to schedule me for the surgery, so after the surgery I you know seen the staff and the people was treating me you know for everything and then Dr. Polansky you know after everything was done and the therapy and everything, everything turned out real well so I’m pretty happy with it and happy with Dr. Polansky, he’s like family to me and the staff."

Sandy

Plantar Fasciitis Patient

"Several years ago, I woke up one morning and experiencing just excruciating pain in both of my heels. It literally felt like there was a knife jammed up in my heels, I could barely walk and I remember vividly because it was the day before Thanksgiving. I called Trina here at the Huber Heights office at about 8 o’ clock in the morning and I said oh my God I think I might have fractured my feet, I’ve been exercising a lot, I’ve been on the treadmill and I can’t even walk and in my job as a salesperson, obviously I wear a lot of high heels and I though, oh my gosh I’m not going to be able to walk, I’m not going to be able to do anything. So fortunately, Trina got me in at 8:30 that morning and Dr. Polansky assured me that my feet were not broken, that it was actually plantar fasciitis and actually I think I recall his exact words were “Sandy, you have plantar fasciitis the size of the state of Las Vegas, Nevada” and I went in at that particular visit and he gave me a steroid injection in both of the heels, of course they numbed it first and they proceeded for the next eight weeks for me to come in for weekly steroid injections and put a walking cast on both of my feet because I told Dr. Polansky I didn’t want to be off work, I wanted to be able to work, what could be we do to give me the best relief in the shortest amount of time period that I could work and he assured me that I would not leave the office that day until my pain was significantly reduced and I am happy to say that two sets or orthotics later, I haven’t had any pain in the plantar fasciitis and I have been wearing my orthotics in both my tennis shoes as well as my pumps or high heels for ladies and thanks to Dr. Polansky, Dr. Jones and Dr. Swan, they’ve done a great job not only with me but with my son as well with some toe issues that he has had."

Barb

Neuropathy Patient

"Diabetes has caused neuropathy, which is a deadening of the nerve endings and they become very sensitive to the air. I was a barefooted person and I started to have to wear socks and I really should have been wearing shoes but I wore socks. Dr. Polansky, I started coming to him and he gave me meds, he checks my feet regular. He checks the pulse, they do a test then also that checks the nerve damages and he does that on a regular basis. It’s more widespread than just every office call comes every few months. Dr. Polansky has helped them when I have had an ulcer or anything. He has seen me regular on a regular basis and he never lets it go too far, he’s there as soon as I call, he has me in here and he starts working with me. He’s helped the neuropathy a lot. I also have it in my hands. I take a med for a prescription that he regularly gives me and it has helped a lot. It’s just in the overall, the diabetes helps as long as I can keep my blood sugar down and keep it going and I do my part and Dr. Polansky, it makes his job a lot easier. I have been coming to him for numerous years to Dr. Polansky and I just really, I have a lot of faith in not just Dr. Polansky, but also his staff, they are all very good. I am just very happy with what Dr. Polansky has been able to do for the neuropathy."

Violet

"I have had Rheumatoid arthritis since I was 19 years old and I am now 59 and about 6 years ago, I was having really bad problems with my right foot and my toes were kind of deformed and everything and I went to an orthopedic surgeon who recommended that I call Dr. Polansky’s office. So, I called Dr. Polansky’s office and I got in and they couldn’t have done a better job for me. He did the surgery, I have never been happier, as a matter of fact when he did it, he informed me that had I not have the surgery, I may have lost my big toe because the bone was already black at that time so he recommended a bone enhancement machine that I wore for several months and it’s been amazing, the transformation from my feet and now that I am back again, I have just had foot surgery two weeks ago and I never took one pain pill the first time I had surgery or the second time after I have had the surgery. It’s just, he just does an incredible job and the staff here, they are amazing and I am just so please that I was able to find him."

John

Longtime Patient

"Yes I’ve been with Dr. Polansky over 20 years. No matter what I come for, he always gets it fixed one way or the other, never no operations but heel spurs. Just my feet are getting old, I am an old retired Green Beret, a lot of fire shoot jumps, the feet had a lot of soreness in it so he always does a great job for me. The needles never hurt; I feel a little sting but nothing big beyond that, nothing to fear. The staff that he has is a super staff; the ladies are just fabulous as far as I’m concerned. Every time I come here, I feel like I am just coming to see family members."

Cardine

Fungal Nail Patient

"I had had this fungus in my toes for about 20 years and it just kept getting worse my toenails raised I had ingrown toenails and I couldn’t wear shoes, I couldn’t wear my heels and finally I came to Dr. Polansky and he took all the toenails off my left foot and that went so well that I asked him how soon he could do the right foot. He did the right foot and it heeled and I had no more pain in my toes and last Sunday, I wore my heels to church for the first time in about five years."

Betty

Arthritis Patient

"I came because of misalignment of my foot and deterioration due to arthritis. The pain was causing sharp pains going all the way up to my hip all the way up the side. Dr. Polansky corrected the problem with surgery and he did a great job. Pain level has been minimal from even the day of the surgery and he and his staff I would definitely recommend for anyone else that needs to correct their feet problems."

Barbara

Foot pain

"Dr. Polansky is an excellent surgeon; he came recommended by a previous patient to my husband. I was gimping around, I had a whole laundry list of problems and because of him he has done, well two what I consider complete foot rebuilds and my husband and I have a better quality of life. We are able to do ballroom dancing which we did long before the Dancing with the Stars, but because of my foot pain, we were not able to do that, but were back at it and it’s the entire staff. He’s a fine surgeon, he is a fine doctor, but it’s everyone here that works as a team. My care was par excellence and my quality of life I cannot imagine what it would have been had I not known about him. I’ve referred three people that I know of. Anyone who says that they have sore feet, they get his business card because no one should have to hobble around life."

Judy

Diabetic Patient

"I’m a diabetic and my diabetic doctor, he referred me to Dr. Polansky and he decided then that they would do the wrap for me and his girls have been great and the wrap, I couldn’t believe it has shrunk my one leg since I’ve had open heart surgery, that leg would swell so bad that it would seep and Dr. Polansky’s wrap has brought it down to where I have a leg again, it matches the other leg, in fact it’s even thinner than the other leg and Dr. Polansky has been wonderful, I go in every week once a week and the girls, they change it and it starts out then with the gauze with the I don’t know what it’s called but it’s like a plaster paris that hardens and then they put the ace bandage on it and it even makes my feet feel better and I couldn’t say enough to praise them because of how kind they are, they treat me like I am just one of the family. Dr. Polansky comes in and checks it every time to make sure there is nothing going on like any redness or anything like that, checks my feet also which is good I feel. They cut my toenails and I feel like I’m really in good care there because I know as a diabetic you need that checked, they couldn’t be any kinder."

Kevin

Fracture Patient

"About two and a half years ago, I broke my foot and when I broke my foot, I didn’t realize it. I had arthritis for 31 years and I went and saw an Orthopedic Surgeon and he tried fixing my foot and didn’t succeed so it lasted about a year and a half and within that year and a half, it kept getting worse, so living in Huber Heights, I saw Dr. Polansky’s office, come in, staff was great, started taking care of me right away, been a patient ever since, that’s been since July of ’08 and Dr. Polansky is great, takes you step-by-step, shows you exactly what he is going to do he’s going to let you know everything up front, he’s great, he takes care of everything that he says he is going to take care of and does everything he says he’s going to do, makes you know exactly what you’re going to get, when you’re going to get it."

Shari

Surgical Patient

"Well I started having a foot problem in 2001, visited several different doctors, a orthopedic doctor as well as a podiatrist, had two different surgeries. It started with a neuroma and I you know after a few years went by, my foot continued to deteriorate and give me problems and I heard about Dr. Polansky by a friend who worked with him and she was very complementary of him, explained to me how detailed he was, how particular he was about his patients, so I came to visit him and I was very impressed with his staff and how he explained my problem and he told me 99% he could fix my foot, so I thought that it was a pretty good percentage, so I thought well, let’s give it a try so he explained what needed to be done, we planned it and we went through it and I ended up being in a cast for eight weeks and I was so pleased that every Wednesday I would come here and they would change my cast, let me wash my leg and my foot and I really appreciated all the kindness and the support that the staff showed here and I felt like Dr. Polansky was very attentive to me, I didn’t feel that he was in a hurry, he gave me all the attention I needed when I came for my appointments and as I continue with my recovery, I will continue to come here and I have another problem with my other foot, so I guess I am going to keep coming here."

Dr. Polansky corrected the problem with surgery and he did a great job. Pain level has been minimal from even the day of the surgery and he and his staff I would definitely recommend for anyone else that needs to correct their feet problems."

Foot pain

"Dr. Polansky is an excellent surgeon; he came recommended by a previous patient to my husband. I was gimping around, I had a whole laundry list of problems and because of him he has done, well two what I consider complete foot rebuilds and my husband and I have a better quality of life. We are able to do ballroom dancing which we did long before the Dancing with the Stars, but because of my foot pain, we were not able to do that, but were back at it and it’s the entire staff. He’s a fine surgeon, he is a fine doctor, but it’s everyone here that works as a team. My care was par excellence and my quality of life I cannot imagine what it would have been had I not known about him. I’ve referred three people that I know of. Anyone who says that they have sore feet, they get his business card because no one should have to hobble around life."

Judy

Diabetic Patient

"I’m a diabetic and my diabetic doctor, he referred me to Dr. Polansky and he decided then that they would do the wrap for me and his girls have been great and the wrap, I couldn’t believe it has shrunk my one leg since I’ve had open heart surgery, that leg would swell so bad that it would seep and Dr. Polansky’s wrap has brought it down to where I have a leg again, it matches the other leg, in fact it’s even thinner than the other leg and Dr. Polansky has been wonderful, I go in every week once a week and the girls, they change it and it starts out then with the gauze with the I don’t know what it’s called but it’s like a plaster paris that hardens and then they put the ace bandage on it and it even makes my feet feel better and I couldn’t say enough to praise them because of how kind they are, they treat me like I am just one of the family. Dr. Polansky comes in and checks it every time to make sure there is nothing going on like any redness or anything like that, checks my feet also which is good I feel. They cut my toenails and I feel like I’m really in good care there because I know as a diabetic you need that checked, they couldn’t be any kinder."

Kevin

Fracture Patient

"About two and a half years ago, I broke my foot and when I broke my foot, I didn’t realize it. I had arthritis for 31 years and I went and saw an Orthopedic Surgeon and he tried fixing my foot and didn’t succeed so it lasted about a year and a half and within that year and a half, it kept getting worse, so living in Huber Heights, I saw Dr. Polansky’s office, come in, staff was great, started taking care of me right away, been a patient ever since, that’s been since July of ’08 and Dr. Polansky is great, takes you step-by-step, shows you exactly what he is going to do he’s going to let you know everything up front, he’s great, he takes care of everything that he says he is going to take care of and does everything he says he’s going to do, makes you know exactly what you’re going to get, when you’re going to get it."

Shari

Surgical Patient

"Well I started having a foot problem in 2001, visited several different doctors, a orthopedic doctor as well as a podiatrist, had two different surgeries. It started with a neuroma and I you know after a few years went by, my foot continued to deteriorate and give me problems and I heard about Dr. Polansky by a friend who worked with him and she was very complementary of him, explained to me how detailed he was, how particular he was about his patients, so I came to visit him and I was very impressed with his staff and how he explained my problem and he told me 99% he could fix my foot, so I thought that it was a pretty good percentage, so I thought well, let’s give it a try so he explained what needed to be done, we planned it and we went through it and I ended up being in a cast for eight weeks and I was so pleased that every Wednesday I would come here and they would change my cast, let me wash my leg and my foot and I really appreciated all the kindness and the support that the staff showed here and I felt like Dr. Polansky was very attentive to me, I didn’t feel that he was in a hurry, he gave me all the attention I needed when I came for my appointments and as I continue with my recovery, I will continue to come here and I have another problem with my other foot, so I guess I am going to keep coming here."

Tracey

Neuroma Patient

"I first started coming to Dr. Polansky about a year and a half ago for pain in my left foot and it was discovered that I had two neuromas and I had a very tiny bone in my foot that was problematic, ultimately, we discovered that it was cracked. Dr. Polansky was able to keep me relatively pain free but ultimately, I knew that surgery was going to be the final fix, so I put it off as long as I could, finally told him I was ready to have it done. The girls were great; the girls explained everything to me, the surgery went exactly how he said it would. It took care of the problem, I’ve had a full recovery and I couldn’t be happier."
