"Kaleida Health’s billing practices at Buffalo General Hospital are indefensible. When I challenged why two identical 10-minute podiatry visits were billed so differently, the representative claimed the June 16, 2025 visit’s $649 “Other Therapeutic Services” (Code 940) charge was for… nail clipping."
— Buffalo News Letter to the Editor (2026)"I had the best experience at the office from my first phone call, to the nurses, doctor Foote, and the front desk! I was able to get in the day I called for my issue and they got me taken care of that day too!"
— Healthgrades review for Dr. Courtney Foote"Fantastic staff help make the visit smooth from start to finish - especially as a new patient. Dr. Rosena provides a thorough assessment with easy-to-understand explanations, directions and an overall treatment plan. Exceptional experience!"
