This was what I thought was a follow-up visit to my previous one three months prior. He had asked me to make the appointment after I saw him in May. Dr. Ciotola walks into the exam room and barely says hi and then immediately goes to his instrument tray and takes out the clippers. He then starts cutting my toenails which didn’t really need cutting. My nails are now down to my skin. When I asked about a culture taken during the previous visit he asked if he had called me. When I said no, he said, then it must have been ok. He did go to check to make sure and came back with the findings..
He should have been prepared with my history, etc. from the previous appointment when he walked into my exam room. My whole impression of the visit is He could have cared less about me. My reasons for seeing him were not significant enough or of real interest to him.
Will I be returning, NO!

Dr. Ryan is caring, Pleasant to talk to. Has helped me greatly with a tendinitis issue. Also a fractured toe. Best podiatrist I’ve had! I’d recommend him to anyone needing help. Office staff are very pleasant and helpful also. I’m very glad I found this practice and Dr Ryan.

This was my first visit with Dr Ryan. I knew as soon as he came into the room I was in good hands. He takes time to listen and offers good advise with options. I had a cortisone shot for a pinched nerve and he did such a great job that I didn’t feel any pain at all. I’ll definitely continue to be a patient of his and highly recommend him.

My Dad is 98 and is pretty sensitive when it come to having his nails cut and Dr. Ryan takes his time and is very gentle.
Previous Dr’s were not so gentle and Dad was frequently jumping up from his seat. This does not happen with Dr. Ryan.
I highly recommend Dr. Ryan @ Methuen Podiatry

Seen Dr. Ryan 3x's. First time, no problem, personable, friendly, I was impressed. 2nd time, I was very disappointed as he hurt me while cutting my toes. Although, I said he was hurting me, it seemed to go on deaf ears, however, he did apologize at the end. I was very close to cancelling my 3rd appt.,, but went and told him I was upset last time, and to be very careful this time as to not hurt me. He sure listened, and was as gentle as anyone can be cutting toenails. Impressed that he listened, and made a 4th appt.

I was having terrible back pain due to my painful bunions.I had a non invasive bilateral bunion surgery. I had great results. It was a day surgery and was able to return to work in two weeks. After only 4 1/2 months I am back in comfortable shoes with no pain . Dr. Ciotala was professional and explained the procedure and results in details. I am very pleased with my results. Highly recommend this procedure.

I had terrible back pain going to the chiropractor twice a week until I had my double bunionectomy. Literally changed my life. I was walking with crutches the next day post surgery and within weeks on my own two feet. Four months in I am wearing regular athletic shoes and no pain. Dr Ciotala did an amazing job

Overall a good visit with Dr. Mishra! He explained things in a direct manner to address my ingrown toenail. He had to administer a numbing solution with a few shots. He advised me that the shots would be painful, to take some deep breaths. He made me feel better that other patients have taken these shots much more fearful and that I did well with it. He showed me the ingrown toenail and it made me realize why I was being bothered by it. He gave me instructions how to care for my toenail at home for recovery.

Outstanding experience, Dr. Ciotola was very professional and answered all my questions remarkably. I love the plan of treatment and his honesty when proposing treatment options. My daughter came to him and because of his extortionary work when it came time to address my feet issues there was not one better that I wanted as my doctor!

I was having pain in every step I took and I went to see Dr. Ciotola. He quickly diagnosed me with having a bunion. I had my surgery in September 2023 and didn’t even need the crutches or pain meds. My recovery was quick and I am now pain free and 100% better. Thanks to Dr. Ciotola for fixing my foot!

I first met Dr. Ryan at the Holy Family Hospital in Methuen, MA after being admitted with a severely infected left foot. Dr. Ryan, against the odds, was able to perform surgery successfully , and with the help of antibiotics and excellent after-care, my foot remains intact and has healed. The prognosis was initially poor, and it was touch-and-go for awhile during the healing process, but due to his prescribed care, medical expertise, knowledge, and diligence as well as the care of the fabulous nursing staff, I walk again. In addition, he is kind, honest, and professional. I highly recommend him.

My appointments were honored as well as my desire to be contacted in the event of a cancellation, which did occur. Jackie from the office called and I had about 9 days to prepare. Dr. Ciotola wrote me notes to be out of work and to get my money back for an expensive out of town concert. All of this was successful.
My surgery was at Lawrence General Hospital and the doctors, nurses, secretaries, and staff were all amazing.
Dr. Ciotola took the stitches out of my foot yesterday, one week after surgery and told me I could ditch the crutches, so I would maintain muscle strength in that leg.
Today, eight days later, I am walking without assistance, but with a lightweight boot on.
I will continue to bring a crutch or cain with me, but only use it if I need it.
I highly recommend Methuen Podiatry, Dr. Ciotola, and Lawrence General Hospital.

The entire office was professional. My intake provider was pleasant, kind and very pleasant. The actual intake questionnaire was three pages long and the most comprehensive I’ve ever encountered.
Because of my position dealing with many whom battle SUD, I am convinced if more PCP utilized this type MORE honest dialogue could happen and more could be helped.
Dr Ryan is prompt, extremely knowledgeable and immediately ordered a battery of exams to get to the root cause of my personal problem. Bravo
