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.

Dr. Lapoff has been my family’s podiatrist for 25 years. I would recommend him to anyone. He is a professional that still treats his patients like family. Very knowledgeable and caring

x Ray
The good doctor must have missed the class in med school on how to read an x ray. Stubbed my toe, went to him, he x rayd it , said it was broken taped it. Tape unravelled after 2 days. Went back, he x rayd it again, said it was still broken. Tapped it which came off after 2 days. Went to see another podiatrist who said there is no break. Went to ER to confirm. They also said no break, Maybe he is good at trimming nails and calluses

Good Doctor - Bad Visit/Experience
OMG. Had to wait 20+ minutes in waiting room, and then another 10 minutes in exam room for doctor. Why is this an issue? Because there wasn't anyone in the waiting room, and there were no patients with the doctor. In fact I watched him walk back and forth several times to talk with front desk people without any effort to bring me in. I felt like a dog at the front door waiting for my master to come home!!! So went to see him as I was having issues with my LEFT foot when riding my bike. Wondering why it was only happening on the LEFT. Doctor looked me over and did not find anything mechanical. He decided to do x-rays as a preventative measure and took an x-ray of my RIGHT foot. Then off he goes to develop (?) the x-ray. 15 minutes go by and nothing. I can hear him talking to someone down the hall almost the whole time. When the conversation stopped is when he returned and told me nothing was wrong on the x-ray. I then asked if was going to x-ray my LEFT foot and he said he

I went to him for a Sinus Tarsi Syndrome Surgery. He claimed he was experienced with it. He did the surgery, and after 2 months the pain came right back. I went back to him, and he acted like he didn't know what happened, and gives me a cortisone injection. He tells me to call him in two days to tell him how I felt. The injection relived the pain for one day. I called his office back twice over a one week period, and no one ever called back. The receptionist told me that she had given him the messages and he never told her anything about it. This is the kind of doctor he is. He will abandon a patient in pain.

Dr. Lapoff is that rare gemstone in a field of doctors. He takes a sincere interest in his patients. He listens , offers sound & knowledge support. If outside support is needed, his recommendations and referrals are experienced medical professionals who know how to diagnose and set up a treatment plan. His office staff go out of their way to make sure the paperwork is done promptly and efficiently. His assistant makes you feel valued and puts you at ease.

Took my mom a few hours ago for an ingrown nail and I can't say enough wonderful things about everyone at Dr. Lapoff's office. Making an appt. was easy, I was able to download new patient forms from their website (wish all medical providers did this), all his staff were friendly and outgoing and Dr. Lapoff was gentle with my mom, did a great job and he had a great "bedside manner". Can't recommend him and his office enough!

He is the BEST, He is the only Doctor I trust with my feet. He kept my feet dancing long after their prime and I was able to dance for a living for 10 more years with his care. He is approachable, friendly and has your best interests at heart, Ah-Mazing!!!!!! Everyone in the office (Barbara, Debra and Charlotte) are so friendly and they make you feel so welcome. My trust for him is impossible to measure, Thank you Dr. Lapoff for all your years of care and guidance.
