Patient Reviews

“I had seen Dr. John over 10 years ago for plantar Fasciitis and when it was time to do something about new increasing foot pain, I never hesitated in choosing Dr Shine again even though it was a long drive from where he used to practice. He did not disappoint.”  April 08, 2024.


“Dr. John has always been knowledgeable of my problems and able to help out. Office staff was respectful and helpful in their communication with me as well.” April 05, 2024.


“Dr. Shine greeted me as a person, not just a patient. He asked me how he may help me, addressing my priorities, not his. At no time, was I or did I feel rushed through my appointment.. we had a dialogue, in which I felt valued and truly listened to. He was most honest with me, and that I appreciate. Dr. Shine’s staff was professional, yet very personable. I was valued as a person. I do not live close to Dr. Shine’s office, but I will gladly make that trek for this quality of care!”

“I had a wonderful experience at the Shine Clinic. The appointment was right on time, if not a bit early which was great. The medical assistant was very helpful. I have chronic low back problems and she made me as comfortable as possible and was very gracious in doing so. Dr. John explained my condition, explained everything he was doing to my feet, and how to care for them when I returned home. I was very pleased with my visit. As far as the covid safety precautions, I did wear a mask because most of my doctors still do and I do have underlying health issues, but I’m sure this will probably be ending soon at my PCP and Cardiologist also. I had no concerns about Covid during my visit. I highly recommend Dr. John and will gladly drive in from Kyle should I need a podiatrist again.”

“I had an awesome session with Dr. John. He is really on his game. He is extremely experienced and pleasant. I’d recommend him to anyone. I’ve suffered with heel pain for the last 4 years. I had pain in both of my heels, making it extremely painful for me to do my 4 mile walk. He just recently treated my left foot, which is where I experienced the most severe pain. I have never been pain free in either of my feet for so long I thought I would just have to live with the pain. Not so, my left foot hasn’t felt this good for so long, I almost can’t believe it. Wow!! Thank you Dr. John.”


“Thank you for all your time and helping to come to a definitive diagnosis and sift through treatment options. I left with a great plan and feeling better already. Everyone in office is super friendly and helpful.”

“My 14 year old son was extremely nervous to be seen and have a procedure done on his toes. Dr. John and his staff worked efficiently and answered my son’s questions. The appointment was longer, but the actual procedure was quick and thorough. My son is healing nicely and not in any pain. I highly recommend Shine Foot and Ankle.”

“Dr. John made me feel that what I had to say and input into the discussion about my issue was as important as his opinion of the direction of repair needed. “

“Dr. John is a very fine doctor and surgeon. I am in the final stages of a second bunion surgery with him. The first was a fusion of the big toe joint because it had arthritis. I wasn’t sure how that was going to go, but Dr. John assured me it would be good, so I trusted his expertise. Sure enough… it’s amazing how your body adapts. This second surgery is a “simple” bunion correction. It’s going very well. I wish I had done this years ago. I’ve had painful bunions most of my adult life. The surgery is not that bad, pain wise and you can get around on the knee scooter and boot quite easily. I am very glad that I found Dr. John. He and his staff have been wonderful. Very courteous, and caring while professional and friendly. Dr. John is easy to talk to. Very knowledgeable. He never rushes you. Always has time for questions. Dr. John is the best. Go get your feet taken care of.”

“Dr. John was able to fit me in the same day for an urgent toe situation (never any fun). He and his staff took wonderful, thorough care of me, and gave my poor smashed toe the attention it needed to heal. He’s a rare gem of a provider – I’m so glad to find him and recommend his practice very highly.”

I had an emergency and was seen right away. Much better care than I could have received in an ER or urgent care facility. Have a clear care plan and support if I call in. Already called with question and received quick call back. I’m an established patient and have been very happy with all the care I have been given in the past.”

Both my athlete son and I have had very good experiences with Dr. John. He asks lots of questions and actually LISTENS to the answers, and devotes his full attention to you (not so common nowadays). He’s active in state/national medical organizations, and reviews journal manuscripts, so his patients get state-of-the-art treatment. With such extensive knowledge/experience AND a wonderful bedside manner, we feel we’ve gotten the best care available from Dr. John.”
