Years ago, my father went to Dr Councill for an ingrown toe-nail. They knew each other from high school and, so, years later, she came highly recommended by dad when I had an ingrown toenail. The day I arrived at my appointment, I met with Doctor Brice (Dr Councill's husband). I've got bad genetics about my toenails growing wider than my toe and so every so often I have to go back because I never follow the doctor's suggestions about keeping up with my feet; I'm practically on a first name basis with the staff and they're fantastic. They're very good at creating a "family doctor" atmosphere. They'll have a conversation with you while working on your feet and make you feel at ease. If you have pain or discomfort, they'll ask if you want to numb your foot or use a spritz of Ethal Chloride so you don't feel anything for a few seconds while they work. Now, if only my dentist was this good, I might visit him more often!
