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.

The receptionist, Linda is very welcoming. I was taken in at my appointment Time, promptly. I had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Riscica, who was excellent. He gave a thorough examination and answered all of my questions in a kind, professional manner. I highly recommend him.

Very likely, Dr DeSanto & his staff are GREAT
I had a bunion & hammertoe surgery done on my left foot with another foot Dr. a few years ago and I was in so much pain & to me I didn't think it healed right. Dr. DeSanto did my right foot, after surgery I hardly had pain and after 3 days I had no pain and my ugly foot looks like a foot model, in my opinion he is the best foot dr. I ever had and I've had a lot of foot Dr's. He really cares about his patients and that's hard to find now a day's. So if you need a painless caring foot dr I highly recommend Dr. Desanto to me he is the best

I went to Dr DeSanto because I thought I had hot feet syndrome. He saw a black mark on my toe nail. I thought it was fungus. He biopsied it. I thought that was unusual. The outcome was that I had melanoma. My NYU dermatologist and Mount Sinai surgeon told me that Dr DeSanto saved my life. He is a very compassionate dr but also an extremely knowledgeable one. I’ll always be so grateful. P. Regan Aug4, 2020
