I felt relatively pain-free immediately following TT and PF surgery and was overly confident in my activities, thinking I was just fine. Dr. McKenna warned that the pain would increase over a period of time following surgery before it started to feel better. He was accurate, and it hurt like heck for a while, especially after a busy day. But I never lost hope while doing PT to work through the pain. Now, after 3 mo. Post-surgery, I am doing everything that I want to do, including exercise, and have essentially no pain. I am really happy with the outcome of the surgery and being advised properly on what to expect while recovering from this invasive procedure.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this doctor and his entire staff. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed, valued, and truly cared for. The doctor took his time, listened carefully to my concerns, and explained everything in a way that made me feel comfortable and confident in my care. The staff was just as incredible kind, professional, and genuinely compassionate. It’s rare to find a medical office where every single person goes above and beyond, but that’s exactly what I experienced here. I’m so grateful for the level of attention and care I received. Highly recommend!

I have had other surgeries and this by far was the most peaceful, calm, and comforting experience I’ve ever experienced. Dr. McKenna is the most professional, caring, kind, and personable doctor I have ever encountered together with his nurse Johnna. Johnna gave me her cell phone number and that gave me a whole lot less anxiety knowing I could speak with her at anytime after my surgery; what a caring staff that gave me unmeasurable comfort that allowed me to healing without anxiety. She called and FaceTime me to give me instruction after my surgery. Dr McKenna is the absolute best surgeon/doctor I have ever encountered. He’s personable, soft spoken, caring, and takes his time making sure I can ask anything and fully explained my diagnosis making sure I fully understood. As a surgeon he made sure I had the best outcome. He is an incredible human being and tenderly cares for his patients. His staff mimics him beautifully. May God continue to bless Dr McKenna and his staff.
What could have been done to improve this visit?
Nothing! Dr McKenna and his entire staff are wonderful, professional, personable, kind and most respectful group I’ve ever encountered. I had never been so at peace having surgery knowing I was safe in their hands. What a comfort they all were.

Dr McKenna was extremely compassionate and understanding. He took time to listen thoroughly to my history and explained my condition and treatment plan. I’ve had a horrible experience with a Podiatrist in the past and have suffered with pain for a long time. I’m very satisfied with my experience and results so far. So glad my husband told me to make an appointment with him. Hope he plans to stay in this area for a long time.
What could have been done to improve this visit?
The pre-visit online questionnaire is very long.

Dr. McKenna performed a tarsal tunnel release on all four nerve tunnels of my right foot. Additionally, he did a partial plantar fasciitis release. My pain level has not exceeded a two following the surgery and I was a chronic four for a long long time prior. I cannot thank Dr. McKenna and his staff enough for this wonderful pain relief surgery. 5-star experience for the Doctor, his nurse Johnna and his nurse Mary.
What could have been done to improve this visit?
I cannot honestly think of anything that could’ve been done better. Perhaps the timeline to having the procedure done sooner, but there was a process involved in getting other doctors to release me for the procedure.
