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.

The Best Podiatrist
Dr. Marino treated me like I was family. When I went to him I was in so much pain I couldn't sleep. Knowing I had a really bad back, he had me wearing a boot only at night to not cause more back problems. Sure my foot took a bit longer, but I appreciated him considering my whole body.

He discusses with you honestly your condition. Technically, he is great. I cannot recommend him more highly. I am glad my friend recommended him to me.

I am a patient of Dr Marino, and also an RN who happens to care for many patients he treats at a local hospital. My treatment in his care was exceptional, and he went above and beyond by working me into his busy schedule. I was back to my prior function (and better) in no time. He comes highly recommended from myself, and his patients I have cared for all had great experiences with him.

Recently Dr. Marino completed a bunionectomy to correct issues with my foot and it was a complete success, including the insertion of a plate in my foot. He explained the process with pros/cons, routinely checked the progress post-surgery and I am very happy with the results.

Dr. Marino treated my son when he broke his foot playing high school football. We were fortunate that he was at the game helping out the trainer as a volunteer so he started treating my son on the field and then followed-up at his office on his own time. By using a bone growth stimulator early in the process, he actually had my son's foot healed and had him back on the field in 3-4 weeks.

I had a bunion surgery with Doctor Marino, was the biggest mistake for me. I am in worse condition now!!! Please get a second opinion. I have to get this surgery done again and I have to pay now. I don’t recommend this doctor at all!!! My advice don’t let this surgeon touch you!!

If you want your doctor to be condescending and arrogant with the personality of a warthog with a hangover, this is your guy. Biggest mistake of my life. Ruined my foot by performing a procedure never discussed with me pre-surgery. Left me with a numb and burning foot. Didn't fix what I went in for. Five other very well known and peer respected surgeons have all told me Marino was incorrect in all aspects of my surgery. Need second surgery to correct what he didn't. See anyone but him.

About Me

care philosophy

As a double board certified podiatrist and podiatric surgeon, I believe in compassionate conservative care taking into account the needs and goals of the patient. Surgical intervention, while at times necessary, is usually a last resort.
