Washington Foot & Ankle Sports Medicine

Dr. Maurer is super nice and has helped me with my orthotics. I would recommend him to anyone with foot problems.

Dr. Maurer is very thorough and has helped me with different issues I have had with my feet including plantar fasciitis. I would recommend him for anyone having foot problems.

Dr. Peter Vincent is very thorough and clearly explains every x-​ray, MRI, CT scan, and diagnosis. He doesn’t rush through the appointment and clearly cares about his patients. All the staff were friendly and I’ve never sat in the waiting room for more than 5 minutes.

Dr. Maurer is a professional and fantastic foot doc. Anyone with sports related foot injuries should have Larry as their go-​to foot doc. Dr. Maurer has incredible knowledge of foot and bones but also as it relates to sports medicine.

Made an apt with Dr. Maurer on recommendation from a friend. While I was brought back to the examining room in a timely manner, it took an hour for Dr. Maurer to enter my exam room. He was personable and took his time to evaluate and treat the problem well.
Although I think he is a good doctor, if you have to bring small kids with you (as I had) or have other engagements that day, be aware that this appointment may take a lot longer than you want it to.

Saw Dr Maurer for plantar’s fasciitis issues over the course of 8 months. Today I walked out of the exam room after waiting for an hour with no sign of Dr Maurer. This is not the first time he kept me waiting for a long period of time, but this time it was a complete hour, plus I had dragged my 8-​hr-​old daughter with me. As we left room, I could see Dr Maurer turning the corner at the end of the hall, so he was most definitely not on his was to my exam room. Who knows how much longer he would’ve kept me waiting. When I checked in, there was an empty waiting room. There looks to be only 6 – 8 exam rooms – many of their doors open when I was assigned mine. All my previous exams (except for maybe the initial assessment) have lasted 10 minutes or less. Given the empty waiting rooms, open exam rooms, and Dr Maurer’s average time spent with patients, the math is not adding up to making a patient wait an hour. Won’t be returning.

A friend recommended Dr. Vincent, whom I’ve seen a few times and he’s always helped alleviate any foot pains I’ve had.

What they do is sell orthotics — I guess that mine are good.
I saw Dr Mauer, and I think he is shooting himself in the foot by not embracing, instead resisting the trend of folks like me who want a partnership with their doctor. In order to preserve the need for orthotics ($) he is not interested in prescribing any self help in the form of exercises and muscle strengthening. I have gone to the Internet for these, and have much improvement in my condittion.

Dr. Maurer came very highly recommended. But I will not see someone who, seems so so busy, and sees so many cases per day that he does not give your case proper consideration. Is he a good surgeon, probable, but I like someone who knows me.

Disclaimer: I visited the office a few years ago, sometime in 2008.
I saw Dr. Vincent and he was great. He really worked with me to figure out my foot problems and I walked away feeling pretty good about my experience. Then I got my Statement of Bill (or whatever it’s called) from my insurance and discovered the office had billed twice for orthotics. I called to tell them I had ordered only one orthotic and not two. Their response was — since the insurance had already covered the other orthitic, I can just come in and get another one. Umm, OK. So I did. I just think it’s a shady way of doing business.

Was treated by Dr. Mauer. The office was clean. Staff was very personable and friendly. Phone calls were delivered in a timely manner, and any misunderstandings I had were handled very well.
Dr. Mauer is very nice. He addressed by problem in a manner that was what was ‘best for me’. He is flexible in his thinking and is not eager to put you through any unnecessary tests or surgery. Being a provider in the medical field, this is something I can appreciate.
I would definitely go back, and will go back if I have any future issues. I highly recommend their office.
