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.

Steer clear of this doctor. He dragged out treatment for a wart with scrapping that cost $250 per treatment. He told me over the counter treatments didn't work. When I couldn't afford to go anymore, I bought an over the counter treatment and my wart was gone within a week. It hasn't been back.

500%useless scheduling dept. They are rude and classless. They talk over you. I asked 3x on 3 days the same question and no one bothers getting the answer. Cancelled my appt without ever seeing doctor but he should know his scheduling dept is inept and costing him business.

Dr Lavin was recommended by my primary care doctor 7 years ago; I was satisfied with every visit. He made me custom made inserts that helped tremendusly with my heel pain. Although they were not paid by my insurance, they were extremely well made, and I still wear them 4 years later! Dr Lavin is very professional, friendly and always take the time to answer all my questions.

Went for a second opinion. On the first visit he said I needed orthotics for almost $400 not cover by insurance, needed to pay up front. Second visit he fits orthotics then says I need compression socks for $35 again not covered by insurance. At the end of that visit he told me what the real problem with my ankle was. Told me I need to go back to my original doctor. Took as much money as he could from me then sent me away. If he knew the problem he should have told me on first visit.

I have severe rheumatoid arthritis and Dr Lavin was highly recommended by my rheumatologist. I had an appointment scheduled for the same week I called and Dr Lavin recommended custom made shoes which were wonderful. Dr Lavin is very pleasant and knowledgeable, and answered all my questions patiently. I am very satisfied. Thank you Dr Lavin for helping me walk again.

Dr Lavin was highly recommended by my primary care doctor when I developed foot pain in both feet. I had an appointment scheduled for the same week I called and Dr Lavin took a digital xray of my feet right in his office. I was able to see the picture on his computer minutes later. Dr Lavin recommended custom made inserts that helped me tremendously. Besides, Dr Lavin is always pleasant and thorough, I would go back to him if I have other foot problem.

I have seen Dr. Lavin several times for various foot ailments. I have found him to be very professional, caring and informative. He has made orthotic appliances for me that have worked out really well and he successfully treated my other foot problems. I am happy to have found his office.

I have been going to Dr. Lavin ever since I moved to Mansfield over fifteen years ago. If my feet were in pain, the good doctor took care of the problem and the pain soon left. Currently, I require on-going quarterly maintenance. He will schedule a late appointment for me so that I can leave work, drive south on route 128 in heavy traffic and get the maintenance done. I have never had a problem with the diagnosis, treatment or the billing and I have always enjoyed his banter while he worked.
