Great experience with my doctor...he was very helpful and thorough.

Every thing was great.

I was first seen by the resident who got the initial information. He did a good job. Dr. Atway came in and examined me, provided information and recommendations. he was excellent.
Dr. Atway has taken excellent care of me for several years. I can not imagine a better podiatrist.
OK with staff.
Always friendly and listens and responds completely.
He and his intern were both well informed and provided excellent care for my visit.
great bedside manner and listens
Read ex rays right away and explained condition. Also questioned one of the meds that could be a contributing factor.
Dr. Atway and his resident were wonderful!
All good
Doctor Atway noticed an additional issue dermatological with my foot and offered a solution. One of the best physicians I have ever consulted. Exceptional attention to all aspects of my feet problems and tailored solutions that were not a default to high risk surgery. A caring and highly professional physician who listens to his patients.
All good!
no bad experiences. I have a chronic condition, and I just don't think we reached an action plan to adequately address it. I have been in pain with it nearly continuously. I was hoping for a more aggressive approach.
Always seems concerned with my well being
Dr. Atway is honest and direct. (Very good qualities). He also listens to me.
A 10+.
Easy to talk to, very nice & friendly.
I'm glad he took the time to suggest options to resolve an ongoing issue. That's not what my appointment was for but he helped me out.
Dr. Atway the best.
All my experience with my care provider was very good.
very caring - will get back with me right away - if I had a question - through OSU MyChart.
Dr. Atwell was AWESOME! He really listened and took into consideration all of the prior care for my condition.
Great experiences. I'm lucky to be under his care. I would recommend others to him.
Dr. Atway is the best wouldn't want any other podiatrist!
He was nice polite knowledgeable, and concern about something he found. look forward to see if I can make an appointment if he will see me about the matter. it's concerning to me,be little worried.
It would be appropriate if staff would ask prior to just assuming, patients if they were OK with an intern assessing the issue presented, regardless of the amount of involvement by the practicing physician with whom the appointment was made - perhaps even prudent, rather than assuming just anyone can sit in on the appointment.
was good
he had reviewed my medical history and was familiar with X-rays taken earlier so as to make our visit very productive
Dr. Atway is the third doctor I have seen for my foot injury. He is the first of the three that really seemed to listen and process my pain. He also was the first person to share with me that I had a possible neuroma. I was VERY surprised to hear that this was the likely outcome of my MRI. This information was not shared with me by Dr. Martin.
Good.
Dr Atway is the best in his field and I appreciate him helping me.
Dr. Atway is EXCELLENT! First saw him for a sprained ankle and now it's been my peripheral neuropathy and ingrown toenails. I'm now on a regular schedule to see a nurse-practitioner for nail inspection and trimming. Dr. Atway introduced me to toe protectors which is preventing more rubbing and resultant problems.
Answered all questions. Explained how to care for foot - what to expect from treatment at home. How to contact office with further questions & how to expect course of treatment to handle issue with foot. Podiatrist - visit for toe fungus at nail bed.
Dr. Atway and his staff provided excellent service and care. I am still in after care, but I am 100% satisfied. I have already recommended him to others.
easy to talk to and good listener
All great
Dr Atway very straightforward and honest and treated me with respect

Dr Atway always present with courtesy. very knowledgeable, supportive, thorough, explains my problem in way to help me understand. Most of all, he involves me in decision making; highly impressed with his professional knowledge and compassion
We discussed what the proper size shoes for me to wear.
He was great! Cautious & concerned for my comfort.
All good.
Dr. Atway is always on top of his game. Reviewed my chart before he came in recommended additional steps I could take to resolve my issue. Good visit.
He was excellent, put me at ease on my upcoming surgery and explained things well.
Excellent. Dr. Atway goes above & beyond every time. He treats me as a person not a medical problem. He makes his money by doing surgery but his care is based on conservative medical therapy. He is exceptional.
Excellent, professional, personable, pleasant, kind, knowledgeable
Dr Ateay was very flexible as he listened to my concerns and adjusted the plan of care to meet my needs.
Really appreciate my doctor going the extra mile to help me with a recent injury I had to my knee not related to why I was there. Because of him, I got an appointment the day later with a specialist, and just had my MRI. If it hadn't been for him, I'd still be waiting until Tuesday to see the specialist. I appreciate so much that he was concerned about this other injury. Really impressed by his level of empathy and listening. I was really having a rough day, and I just appreciate the care I received and that he was able to help me get a much earlier appointment.
He addressed my concerns, talked about progress and offered suggestions for resolution.
Very helpful, competent, knowledgable.
Very good.
Very kind, friendly and showed willingness to keep me healthy and strong.
Complaint and relatable.
Dr. Atway is outstanding. As a health care provider also, I have high expectations and he exceeds them in every way. He is attentive to your concerns, develops a mutually agreeable care plan and provides you information on next steps. He also is readily available for questions/concerns after your visit. I have highly recommended him to colleagues, friends and family and they have all left with similar praise.
Nothing... is was all good.
All went well.
Respectful and kind and took time!
I love Dr. Atway he is very easy to talk to & is honest about solutions & long term care.
