Dr. Parekh is a fantastic podiatrist and was extremely professional. He instantly made me feel at ease and had a great bedside manner. He was able to quickly treat my problem with minimal discomfort. I truly appreciate how caring and kind he is. I would highly recommend him to anyone in the Chicago area. He is easily one of the best doctors I have ever been to.

I was barely able to do normal daily activities and had given up running when I came to Bucktown Foot & Ankle. Dr. P. quickly diagnosed a torn plantar fascia and applied non-surgical treatment to repair it. Then the work began.Through core strength, stability work, balance work, massage, and other methods these guys have changed how I walk and run. I am much stronger, more stable, and more efficient. In short, I was healed and taught how to stay healthy while running farther faster.

I procrastinated going to a doctor because I have zero tolerance for pain and my toes are sensitive. Then an ingrown nail started to become painful. Searched the web, read glowing reviews of Doctor Para. All true. I didn’t even realize he was done clipping- that’s how good this Doc is with his skillful care.

Dr P has pretty much seen every member of my family at one time or another. Hes great about teaching/explaining what the cause of your problem is and talking to you about your options.

Best podiatrist experiences I have had in the longest time with Dr. Parekh. The clinic parking lot is small and shared but other than that I love that I can contact the actual doctor for any question anytime! He gets back to you very quickly. He is also very accommodating with scheduling. To top it off if he is running late he texts in advance. I have had 3 emergency toe nail removals and he is always happy to book me in asap.Very child friendly as well! The wait time is virtually nothing and the procedures run very quick. Dr. Parekh is very professional and very clean. I have been here a good 6 times and expect more in the future. Would highly recommend.

Very strange experience. I came in for an emergency appointment after I thought I fractured a small bone in my big toe. I was very concerned as I had that exact thing happen on the opposite foot and it was a very long and annoying healing process. The appointment in general was fine and as expected. We determined it was just a small sprain and was told to wrap the toe and not do yoga for a few days. I paid the copay at the office and we verbally mentioned a follow up appointment for the following week. I never received a confirmation/reminder call or email. Come the following week, I receive a text from Dr. Parakh asking if I could come in early. I did not say he could use my cell number for this kind of communication. He didnt even say who he was; I had to ask who was texting me. I said I wasnt going to come in, which was fine, then mentioned he ordered a brace for my foot/toe and I needed to come in the make sure it fit/pick it up. He ordered this brace without my knowledge/approval. Next I got the bill. I was charged for the brace (something I never requested, approved, or needed...it was a sprained toe for goodness sake), I was charged for the second appointment that I never went to (nor was ever scheduled as far as Im concerned), I was also charged for the copay that I had covered at the appointment. I called to dispute the charges, and they were edited. I was ultimately charged for the ultrasound and the athletic tape.Initial bedside manner was fine, but texting me about an appointment no one confirmed, ordering supplies without my knowledge and charging me, and the bogus bill was all in very poor taste and I will not be going to Dr. Parakh again or recommending his practice.

One of the worse experiences with any so called proffesional. Paras gave me a prescription for an mri for my sprained ankle. I had the mri done and have not heard from him since the 8th of march( when i had mri done). I continued to call and try to follow up with him for an update and nothing yet since. I decided to go to a REAL proffesional today that got the mri report from the same place which said i had a fracture its now been over a month since the mri and just now i know why its been hurting so much. He had me in a wrong boot causing more damage. Making it harder to heal, the bone is now shifted healing at a angle making it harder for a professional to fix. The least he could of done was let me know what the damage was. I dont know how he has so many good rating must be family and friends that do that for him. He is not professional at all and i dont reccomend to anyone .
