Bruce B Zappan, DPM PC

This place doesn’t deserve a single star. I thought the doctor was unprofessional, in fact sometimes rude. He just makes stuff up to get you in his office time and time again for the money. I ordered $ 500 orthotics and when I showed them to other foot doctors they laughed and said they are so archaic. Make sure you get at least a second opinion. Don’t make the mistake and run with what this joker has to say.
Ha! I just read the other low ratings and TOTALLY agree with everything they had to say. Extra charges, poor billing, money hungry, bully. This place is a JOKE and will do everything in my power so people stay far, far away. Do your homework!

I’ve been going to Dr. Zappan for a little over a year.
Occasionally he has to ask his assistant to clean a room, but it I’ve only seen that happen when they’ve been busy.
It took me a few visits to ‘get’ his personality, but once I did I found him to be very nice, and willing to take the time to answer my questions — which I ask a lot of.
I ask about cost before I agree to anything, he has no problem talking to me about what insurance covers and what options I have. He will suggest what he thinks is best, but doesn’t argue with me if I choose an alternative.
All I know is my sister saw a different doctor (different state) for the same issue (plantar) — she ended up having surgery (never even mentioned for me by any doctor) and is now dealing with pain that she will have for the rest of her life and I’m doing well, and am pain free.
He knows what he is doing, if you see him discuss your options and costs before you agree to do anything.

I think Dr. Zappan is an excellent doctor. He diagnosed my problem with my chronic joint and relieved me of my pain. I went to three different doctors before I got relief. He is professional and his office staff is friendly and professional. The office is very clean.
I sent my dad to him. My dad went to another doctor who told my dad that he had gout. Dr, Zappan diagnosed his problem and treated him with an antibiotic and his infection is gone.
I would recommended Dr. Zappan to everyone who need excellent care. I can not thank him enough for treating us.

I would give this doctor no stars if I could. His office was dirty. His manner was unprofessional. I went to him for a couple of concerns and ended up paying far more than what was appropriate. After receiving treatment for a ganglion cyst (which was not successful) he told me that I would have to pay $ 75 for a surgical boot to put on the foot that was treated since a regular shoe would not be able to go over the bandages that he had applied. No mention of this was made over the phone when I called for the appointment. I could go on, but I won’t. Suffice it to say that I agree with several of the other reviewers — go elsewhere.

i went to see this guy to have a splinter removed from my foot. he billed my insurance $ 800 to remove this splinter, received payments of more than $ 600 in return, and now wants me to pay the difference. he also «fitted» a bunion with a little rubber cover, charged me $ 20 for the little rubber thing, something freely available on amazon for $ 5. i have no idea how this man has any positive recommendations. he is desperate for money, unethical, duplicitous and a bully. he insisted on a co-​pay that was not required by my insurance that i refused to pay. his manner is extremely off putting. GO ELSEWHERE. pay attention to the review left by AS. i seriously doubt that d. capri is a real person. if so, she’s his daughter. or wife. or something. seriously. i would spent an unlimited amount of money to ensure this man never gets one more penny.

I chose this doctor because of the positive reviews, so I owe it to Unilocal to add my opinion. Unexpected charges and poorly managed insurance billing made things very frustrating for me, just do your homework first.

Dr Zappan has been my podiatrist since I was 6 years old. 24 years later, I am a marathoner and there is still no one else I would trust my feet with. Thank you Dr Zappan!
