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.

Just wants your money, doesn't care about you!
Dr. Lowy is not in the business of helping patients but wants to find additional reasons to bill you for multiple visits. When I met with him he suggested coming back for a 2nd visit to get molds for my orthotics, when I asked why we couldn't do it right then he said they needed to confirm my insurance would cover it. I said I could call them right away, and sure enough I had the answer within 5 min. He seemed to become more and more angry and kept reiterating that that wasn't the normal practice. When I told him I had a hard time taking time off work to come back, he finally had the molds made at that visit, however, he billed me for a 2nd visit just to pick up my orthotics even though he didn't need to bill me as a visit, since he spent only about 2 min with me, and did not provide any additional information. When I asked him any further questions he kept saying when you come back for a consult in four months we can answer any additional questions.

I have been seeing Dr.Lowy every 9 weeks for podiatry care for approximately 3 years. He recently performed a left bunionectomy and revision of 2 toes left foot with amazing results. I had been in constant pain from the great toe overlapping the second toe for over one year but I was not willing to submit to surgery until an ulcer had formed on the second toe at which time Dr. Lowy informed me that I really needed to have the surgery. I have had multiple foot surgeries in the past and some without optimal outcomes. Had I known I would have such immediate relief and such good results, I would have had the surgery much sooner. Dr. Lowy was very patient with me and I very much appreciate his patience and compassion. He is very professional, explains procedures and alternatives and I highly recommend him.

Dr. Adam Lowy has been my podiatrist for the past number of months. He took care of the callous on the bottom of my right foot, as well as the the big toes. We finally decided foot surgery was a good option. I had the big toe and the 2nd toe ‘straightened’ meaning the big toe has a screw in it plus the tendon brought back, and the 2nd toe had a pin inserted. Dr. Lowy did a professional and caring surgery for me. He is gentle, kind and very personable. His offices are in Silver Spring, Kensington and Camp Springs, Maryland. I personally recommend him and his practice to anyone needing attention to their feet.

Dr Lowy was knowledgable and explained my condition thoroughly. He fixed my toe and did not charge an arm and a leg. Unlike the last podiatrist, who charged double and did not fix my toe issue. Thanks Dr Lowy!

HI Dr Lowy, this is Nancy Colt from NJ. Just wanted you to know that my ankle is still like new even with the metal plate and 6 screws, still no pain even when it rains or snows. Never really got to thank you. Well anyway you were here in Denville for a short time, and I'm very glad you were there for me. You are the best! I give you 10 stars. Good luck with the home and your family!

Dr. Lowy helped my 7 year old and had such a wonderful bedside manner. He made her feel at ease and provided care in a gentle manner. She was extremely nervous before arriving and left smiling. I would definitely recommend Dr. Lowy to others and am glad we were referred to him to take care of our little girl.
