Guthrie Patient: December 2019
Dr. Appleton examined my foot thoroughly, watched me walk, to determine the functionality of the foot post-surgery -- far more than the last surgeon has done (he only looks at the xrays). Dr. Appleton asks questions, listens, and repeats back what I have said to be sure he gets it. He explains the difficulty of estimating the amount of correction needed. His analysis is always helpful. i always appreciate his availability.
Guthrie Patient: October 2019
Doctor was very helpful. kind and personable. I truly felt like he cared about my problem and was very eager to help me find out what was going on. I would recommend anyone to him. Truly a blessed

Guthrie Patient: March 2019
I used to be afraid of doctors. Dr. Appleton was the first I felt comfortable with. He was the only good thing in my life that first year after the accident when I was laid up, laid off, and felt lost, and continues to help me go on. He listens and examines me thoroughly, doesn't just look at xrays. He keeps thinking, trying to find solutions. He exudes joy, and brings joy into my otherwise miserable life.
