Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very good foot doctor!
Dr. Leftkowitz is a highly skilled doctor and is very good at what he does. He is knowledgeable and pays attention to the patient's overall health. I have recommended him to several other people. Thank you Dr. Leftkowitz!

He was very quick to order orthotics but did not follow up at all with the patient to see if it fit correctly, even after we waited 90 mins to see him!

I have complete trust in Doctor Lefkowitz. His patient assessment skills and “bedside manner” are excellent. He has helped me over the years with various sports related foot problems with non invasive solutions.

Dr. Lefkowitz is professional and knowledgable. I have complete trust in his surgical expertise. He has provided excellent foot care for me and my family for more than 20 years, ranging from wart removal to conservative and surgical treatment for complications of rheumatoid arthritis. Regardless of condition, he provided the same level of attention and service. Definitely a leader in his field.

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Alicia Ward. She is optimistic and positive, and did a fabulous job reconstructing my foot. I would recommend her to anyone who needs bunion surgery.

Sat in office for hour and a half, jacked up on a chair so I couldn't go anywhere. Went in with foot numbness and he shot me up with nerve blocks which will create.....numbness. Didn't even communicate with me & just shot me up with a series of nerve blocks when I thought I was getting cortisone. Very very disappointed by the poor care & thought process put into my case. I am a relatively young man, very healthy & he was numbing me & doing no therapy for months. please go elsewhere.
