On January, 29, 2024 I visited Cary Orthopaedics (Holly Springs) for an appt. with Dr. Eric Lukosius (Foot/Ankle Specialist) for a burning/tingling sensation in my left foot. He was quick to order xrays; later returned to the exam room to say there was nothing unusual on the xray and I should try foot pads in my shoe. He took 2 shoe pads (about the size of a fifty cent piece) from his doctor's jacket and basically tossed them at me and said to try these.

(Also during this year-long escapade between my insurance company and UNC-Health; UNC-Health referred my account to a Collections Agency.) It's now 2 weeks later and I've never heard back from Gabby (why should I be surprised). I would not recommend Dr. Eric Lukosius if you want a caring and professional doctor, and obviously the front desk has their issues with customer service. VERY VERY disappointed in the lack of care, empathy and...

Original injury was 3 years ago and after orthoscopic surgery and lots of rehab at another facility I thought I would never walk normal again. But Dr. Anderson came through and the folks at the PT facility put the finishing touches on getting me...
