Review for Dr. Walzman
Dr. Garcia was the perfect surgeon for our daughter following an ACL and meniscus tear at gymnastics. He took the time to explain the entire process and timeline before the surgery was performed so we were always aware of what to expect. She is now back to normal and participating in sports again....

Review for Dr. Garcia
Dr. Shtofmakher does not provide adequate care to his patients. He does not follow through and is very careless in the care he provides. He seems to associate with doctors of other specialties who are 'less than reputable' and refers his patients to them. There are plenty of other podiatrists...
