I would not recommend Dr. Byrne to ANYONE! The wait in his office was normally 45 minutes to an hour. He is quick to recommend surgery without totally assessing the foot. He is a bunion machine and throws you to surgery right away and says you’ll be good as new. My surgery never fused at all and I required another more extensive surgery, which I had from a specialist. I lost a year of my life, 7 months off work, and still feel the ramifications from his improper surgery. Save yourself and go to a real doctor… an orthopedic surgery who knows what they are doing. I know many people that are still paying for his lack of surgery skills. Ask around before you go… he has many unhappy customers. I would not step a foot in his door.

Dr. Byrnes and his team are just incredible. I went to him for one small issue and came to find that it was being caused by an injury that happened over 15 years ago. Treated, had surgery, recovered and am now 98% better. I love them because they never promise what they can’t deliver, they do the absolute best work and it is nice walking into an office and see employees that are genuinely happy.

Not impressed. After waiting to get into this doctor at their San Luis Obispo location I was sorely dissapointed in the level of service and care. I was told by another physician that this Doctor was very good but was warned he is a «cutter». I have been having trouble with my foot for several months due to a work injury. I wasnt seeking surgical intervention but(hopefully) an agressive treatment plan to try and resolve the injury. Here are the problems I have with this office: 1. Asked for an appointment reminder; office didnt call. 2. Office was supposed to request my medical record from the referring Doctor; not only did they not request it, when I called to confirm my own appointment the day of the appointment the girl didnt know who I was or that she was supposed to request the record. 3. Doctor ran about an hour late. 4. Not 30 seconds after the doctor walked in he was talking about surgery; I asked what kind of surgery and wasnt really given an answer. 5. After refusing the surgical route he said I needed better shoes, thats great but a couple of things– I was a professional runner by trade; I know shoes. My shoes were not even 10 days old when I came to the appointment. SHOCKINGLY he reccomended the exact same shoe type I was currently wearing in a different brand(brooks); and wouldnt you know it The Practice is Partnered with/Co-Owns a shoe store(attached to the North county practice) and reffered me there to replace my already new shoes… nice sales pitch. I wouldnt reccomend this Doctor, he may be an excellent surgeon but as a chronic injury diagnostician I am very wary of his bedside manner as it includes sales pitches to support his side business and leaps to surgical intervention before even trying other options.

I have great respect and trust for Dr Byrne. He just completed a surgery for a ganglion in my foot. It was so well executed, I recovered quickly, and his kind manner cannot be better. I really trust this doctor. His staff is also fine and helpful. When you call in with a comment or question they are thorough and make sure that the doctor gets the message.

My wife had a ganglion removed from her foot and I was with her every step of the way, both before and after the surgery. Additionally I have been the nurse at hope during the recovery process. The results have been nothing short of spectacular! There was no pain to speak during the entire process. As unbelievable as it sounds this is the way it went for her and I was there every step of the way. We are in complete awe of the quality of the operation and of the wonderful nature of this surgeon and his staff.

If this app would allow for zero stars, that would be the rating. This Doctors office lacks the most basic of appointment management skills. The Doctor is never on time and the wait has exceeded one hour. My son was initially seen for a foot issue that has yet to be resolved and we will be seeking another Podiatrist. I could go about the absolute lack of professionalism exhibited by this office but will leave it with an absolute recommendation to avoid this office.
