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 best there is
I was a patient of Dr. McNerney for many years, when I worked in Westwood, NJ. I left in 1995 to move to FL, where I continued to be an active cyclist. This January, I managed to pull calf muscles in my left leg. After trying unsuccessfully to correct the issue I was about to give up, when I decided to call Dr. McNerney's office. It was a Friday afternoon around 4:00PM when I called. I was in shock when Dr. McNerney himself picked up the phone. He remembered me, and we discussed my situation. He told me to stay off the bike for 4 weeks and to do specific stretching exercises. (If he told me to jump off a bridge, I might have done so. That's how much respect I have for the man) Needless to say, he was right as usual. I am now back on my bike and no longer have any pain in my left leg. Thank you once again Dr. McNerney SId Finkelstein

Dr McNerney was my podiatrist for more than thirty years. He took care of my brother and parents. Though I trained at Harvard Medical School, I drove five hours to make sure he was the first podiatrist my daughter saw because I knew there was none better. His care has allowed me to be very active in sports without pain or injury over decades. He is truly an exceptional doctor and I continue to feel grateful when I slide my high quality orthotics into my shoes or do my exercises.

One of the most thorough and reassuring experiences I've ever had at the Dr.'s office. Answered every question I had, told me the why as well as the what. Didn't rush me or himself. First class service... not to mention all the awesome memorabilia all over the walls!

I have been a patient of Dr. McNerney for 30 years. He helped find an alternative treatment to surgery when I was a teen and has kept me on my feet ever since!
