Dr. Stern really cares about his patients. I saw him multiple times for my Plantar Fasciitis and he took time to examine me and explained the cause. I had to call him for emergency on Saturday and he answered my call and also called me on Sunday to check on me. I’ve never met a doctor who took care of a patient like Dr Stern. He is very kind and caring. I highly recommend Dr. Stern for anyone with foot injuries.

Dr. Stern spent 90 minutes with me assessing how I walk, root-cause of feet pain and swollen ankles. His initial recommendations relived the swollenness and J’m confident on the proposed treatment/“next steps”. Thank you, Dr Stern! Marcos

I made an appointment through the website after hours the day before my appointment. I was able to get a 9 AM appointment and Dr. Stern, came in and immediately helped me with my very sore toe. I walked out with an adjusted pair of orthotics, personally crafted by Dr. Stern, and advice on new shoes. It was a good experience.

Dr Stern, from the start was encouraging and accommodating. He knew immediately after examining my feet what may have caused the damage on both toes. I appreciated his witty, but professional demeanor and would recommend him highly as the go to pediatrist.

Dr Stern addressed my issues and outlined a plan to care for some lingering heel pain I have had. I walked out of the office feeling much better than when I came in after he taped up my foot and gave me instructions for how to care for it in the interim before my next appointment

So appreciate the amount of time and consideration given to the complex issue I have had for many years Seen podiatrists in the past also orthopedics everybody only touched the surface and did not try to go deep and figure out the real problem So thankful to Dr Stern for his critical thinking and for caring
