I have been going to Cortese Foot and Ankle for many years. Dr. Carl and his staff are professional in the work they do. I have been going for regular 3 month checkups. I recently had to have a procedure (an A.B.I.) done on my feet at the Bloomington office. I had a 12:30 pm appointment and was whisked into the room within 5 minutes of the time of my arrival. The procedure took approximately 20 minutes. Dr. Carl they came in to talk about the results and said the x-rays would be ready in about 2 weeks. If you have any foot or ankle related problems, I suggest you to your friends and acquaintances to use Cortese Foot and Ankle in either Pontiac or Bloomington. You will be treated like a person, not like another patient on an assembly line. Dr. Carl will talk to you one-on-one and make the necessary recommendations about you treatment and care.

Dr. Craig Cortese was great! Upfront and honest about my entire "process". It took a while to destroy the callous that was very painful for 5 years. He came up with a plan during the first appointment and he stuck to it 100%. I won't lie, removal was painful at times but he offered pain meds if I wanted them. I will go back if I ever need to and would recommend it to anyone!

I was recently treated for a sports related injury and very grateful for Dr. Carl Cortese and staff for taking the time to zero in on the injury and provide ample information on ways to recover quickly, safely, and effectively. Thank you so much!

Cortese Foot & Ankle Clinic has helped me with plantar fasciitis. Since Dr. Craig Cortese did surgery on my foot, it has been pain free. I love the shoe store where they carry Naot brand shoes designed for plantar fasciitis - it's so nice to be able to wear fashionable shoes again. The whole office staff is very nice and professional and I would highly recommend the clinic for anyone having foot problems.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Cortese and the staff here. They have gone above and beyond. The foot issues I had been dealing with for YEARS only took a couple of months to resolve under their care. Thank you!

Dr. Carl Cortese and his staff are very professional and personable. I came to the foot and ankle clinic after months of dealing with pain in my foot. After only a few weeks of care and physical therapy my foot is almost normal again. I would highly recommend Cortese Foot and Ankle Clinic. If you have foot pain, don't wait-get it checked out by Cortese Foot and Ankle Clinic.

I would like to tell everyone about Dr.Carl Cortese and Dr. Craig Cortese as they have operated on my hammertoes and I couldn't be happier with the results. You can tell they really care and take the time to listen to you and what you want, thank you doctors. The next thing everyone should know about is the awesome shoes they sell at the Sole Savers Shoe Store. Mary is in charge of the shoe store and always has a big smile and a hug if you want! She will measure your feet and get the right shoes for you. First of all you say shoes in the foot doctors office, yes, and no worries we have lost some great shoe stores, but because these shoes are the top of the line and right in style, we have gained a shoe store. I have 30 pairs so far from brands like Naot, Alegria, Altra, Wolky, Taos and Vionic. The comfort is wonderful! Watch for their grand re-opening in late March, as they are expanding so you can see more and try on more, I know I can't hardly wait. Here I am going on and on about the shoes I love and I haven't told you about the great staff they have, you will love all of them. Stop in to Cortese and Sole Savers Shoe Store and get acquainted you won't be sorry that you did! Thank you again.

I want to thank you Dr. Carl Cortese. Because of you, I was able to walk for extended periods all throughout Italy and without pain! You helped make my trip so enjoyable. Also, I loved Venice.
