Patient Testimonials
Request AppointmentThe office manager, Sandy, was beyond helpful and kind. Lindsey, one of the office staff ladies, always greets me with a smile. Everyone is extremely pleasant and welcoming. I would recommend Dr. Barra and his staff to anyone looking for a podiatrist.
Dr Barra and ALL of his associates are great. Dr. Barra made sure my daughter had proper pain control after her toe amputation surgery. His staff are all very dedicated to the cause and have a wonderful compassionate bedside manner. Thank you for making this surgery a success and as pain-free as possible. I also like the fact that state-of-the-art treatment options are available post-op, and you can choose which facility you want surgery performed at.
Always a pleasure coming here. Sandy always welcomes you with a warm smile. I never wait long to be seen and it’s a quick and easy visit. Would definitely recommend it.
I was a new patient. They got me an appointment right away. The office staff was welcoming and friendly. I was very happy with my provider and treatment. Would recommend to anyone looking for a podiatrist.
The entire staff was very professional and so friendly from the doctor to the sweet and helpful ladies in the office. Dr. Barra took his time and explained everything to me and didn’t rush out of the room at all. Even the nurse cared enough to help me relax when I was receiving my shot. Nobody has ever stopped and took the time to even notice if getting a shot may bother you! This group is amazing. I highly recommend them!
The office staff is willing to accommodate your needs. They troubleshoot medical insurance issues and are very friendly. Dr. Barra is very compassionate toward my elderly mother. She trusts his expertise and has developed a friendly bond with him. I would not consider any other Podiatry Group.
I took my child in for an appointment. From the moment we walked in, the staff was very helpful and efficient. The nurse took care and made many notes about my child’s condition. She had the room ready for the doctor before he walked in. Dr. Barra was very thorough, yet quick with the procedure because he could sense her nervousness. A+ for patient service and cleanliness. Thank you!
I would highly recommend Premier Podiatry Group to anyone looking for answers to a foot problem. Dr. Barra has made every effort to not only find the actual problem through a thorough examination and imaging but also to resolve the problem with appropriate measures. Their entire staff makes you feel like you and your feet are their priority. Thank you for a prompt and rewarding experience.
If you have ingrown toenails this is the place to go! The front office staff is wonderful and caring, and Dr. Ratchford is kind, professional, and knowledgeable. She did an excellent job taking care of my ingrown toenails, and recovery was a breeze.
As a patient, I’m always treated kindly by friendly knowledgeable staff. Dr. Ratchford is a great Podiatrist who helped me greatly with my foot issues. She is a friendly, very knowledgeable professional. I highly recommend Premier Podiatry Group and Maureen Ratchford, DPM.
Awesome place that was able to help my son with his toenail. Customer service was on point with information and politeness. Would definitely recommend and go back for any needs.
Sandy was great! She scheduled my surgery. I was not too nice. Very irritated about my insurance. Was changing to Medicare. Did not get any answers from insurance companies if I would be covered or not. Had to keep canceling my surgery. Finally got everything worked out. Thank you Sandy for your patience with me!
I have been looking around for a podiatrist for a while and was lucky to come across this podiatry group. The staff was very attentive from the beginning of the process of filling out paperwork to seeing the doctor; Renee and Samay were very attentive to my needs and concerns. Dr. Barra explained the minor procedure he was going to perform step by step and made sure I was comfortable. I would definitely recommend this office.
The staff was very friendly and efficient. Dr. Ratchford was very professional and helpful. I had a wonderful experience!

Staff and physicians are extremely amazing at what they do, a very happy and friendly atmosphere from the moment you walk in the door and are greeted with a smile. The staff goes beyond the need of making you feel comfortable and are very helpful if you have any questions as well as the physician.
