Dr Silverberg was very thorough in his examination and clearly explained the reason why my pain was occuring. He doesn't immediately jump to surgery as the answer but ensures that you know all the possible responses to treat the problem. He also understands the praticality of everyday life and works to solve the problem most efficiently and effectively. Would highly recommend.

I found Dr. Silverberg by looking at reviews like this one. I saw all 5 stars on hundreds of reviews and thought..."seems odd, but I will give him a try." Well, here I am...adding to the 5 star reviews! What a great experience! The office staff was friendly, Dr. Silverberg was personable, very knowledgable on my condition (Morton's Neuroma) and gave me several treatment options. He is so passionate about his craft that he even took an x-ray of a past bunion surgery I had undergone for his own personal review. His office is clean and modern and I was just all smiles leaving that appointment. He is definitely on my referral list!

I'd never been to a podiatrist before and I wasn't sure what to expect, but Dr. Silverberg was really great. He was very friendly and approachable, and I appreciated that he took time to explain the procedure he would be performing. He asked me a few questions while he was working (probably to distract me from the pain) and easily answered all of my questions to put me at ease. If any of my friends ever ask me whether I know a good podiatrist in the city, I plan to recommend Dr. Silverberg!

Dr. Silverberg was amazing. He seems really kind and like he actually cares about why you are in the office and how he can try to help. The Doctor first did a thorough examination and then proceeded to explain his diagnosis to me and all the potential treatment options. He promised to follow-up after the first stage of treatment so that we could go from there depending on results. This is exactly the type of treatment everyone SHOULD receive on doctor's visits, but unfortunately does not seem to be the norm. I would fully recommend this doctor to anyone, family, friends, etc.

Dr. Silverberg is a phenomenal podiatrist as evidenced by his knowledge, teaching skills, efficiency, and charisma. He explained how my foot problems contributed to my persistent knee pain and outlined everything I needed to know about orthotics and follow-up care. He even used a foot model to explain the mechanics of my injury. Dr. Silverberg is definitely the best at what he does and is very passionate about it.

I can honestly say that I actually didn't mind having an ingrown toenail after visiting Dr. Silverberg. He has a great personality and makes you feel so comfortable as a patient. He is very gentle and I didn't feel any pain when he gave me my shots. He explained my problem in a language that I could understand and clearly laid out my options and I felt I could make an informed decision about how I wanted to proceed. The office staff is extremely friendly as well. This is one doctors office you won't dread going to. Thanks Dr. Silverberg, your the best.

Dr. Silverberg has certainly earned his reputation as the best foot doctor in NYC. I have been struggling with bunion pain for years and decided to undergo the surgical procedure to have one corrected. Unlike several other doctors I had consulted, Dr. Silverberg made me feel perfectly comfortable by thoroughly explaining the cause of the condition, detailing the procedure and completely managing my expectations. I immediately knew I had found the right man for the job. The pain was minimal compared to other stories I have heard and Dr. Silverberg even called me over Thanksgiving to check up on me. I will undoubtedly return to Dr. Silverberg for any future podiatric needs and highly recommend him to anyone in search of a podiatrist for any ailment. Thanks again Dr. Silverberg!

Dr. Silverberg has been amazing. My first appointment with him was 6 days before leaving on a 2 week trip to Europe. I had been suffering with foot and leg pain and had seen another podiatrist who did nothing to help the problem. Dr. Silverberg put a rush order on orthotics and got them to me the day I was leaving for my trip. He even managed to see my himself for the fitting despite the fact that he was incredibly busy because he was also leaving for vacation. He also understands how important it is for me to find the root cause of my pain and has referred me on to several other doctors. Despite the fact that his job as my doctor is done, he has still requested I keep in touch and update him as to how my diagnosis/treatment are going.

Dr Silverberg was amazing! Not only could I tell that he really cared about me as a patient, but he took the time to explain in detail what the problems were with my feet and what was causing these problems in the first place. He even had a model which showed all of the bones of the foot so he could illustrate my specific condition and also showed me my x-ray and explained that as well. He answered all of my questions in a professional yet easy to understand manner. I would with no doubt recommend Dr Silverberg.

I had been using a previous doctor with unsatisfactory results as my condition persisted. I came across Dr. Silverberg through an internet search as he was conveniently located. I have been extremely happy with his level of professionalism and his ability to explain my condition and proper treatment in a clear, concise manner. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a great podiatrist.

Dr Silverberg is simply the best. As soon as my paperwork was done, I was on my way into the exam room. He checked my ankle, shot xrays and reviewed them with me, explained the mechanics of the foot and how my fracture occured. His staff got immediate approval from my health insurance company for a MRI, and I was scheduled for the next day. I was fit with a boot & healing schedule. Follow-up call came as promised. All done with a smile and engaging style. He gave me the time I needed and answered all my questions. Never rushed. Great healthcare experience. If you need a foot doc... he's your man.

Best podiatrist I've seen! I've really only seen one other podiatrist, but that aside, he was really great. He was actually able to see me early and after he fitted me for orthodics I found out his are cheaper than any other podiatrist's. Seriously, he was really great and I'm (oddly) looking forward to my follow-up appointment in a few weeks! He was really accommodating to my needs, which I appreciated.

Dr. Silverberg was extremely knowledgeable and talked me through the causes of my foot pain and explained potential solutions in detail. He also has the cheapest prices for orthotics that I have found. He's also just a really nice guy, I highly recommend him. The office asks you to arrive 15 minutes before your appointment (to fill out paperwork, etc) which is actually great because it keeps the doctor on schedule.

It took a few visits, but Doctor Silverberg has saved me from a lifetime of very bothersome ingrown toe nails, on both feet. After years of dealing with infections, and one or two very informative appointments with Dr. Silverberg, I finally decided to have the roots of the nails permanently removed. As bad as that sounds, Dr. Silverberg made it as painless as possible, which is pretty rare when there are big needles involved. Such a relief to know, that I never have to deal with the pain and infections again, already recommended him on Facebook to my friends.
