About Dr. Andrew Shapiro
**Please be aware that some insurance plans listed may require a referral**
Welcome to our podiatry practice in Valley Stream, New York. Our staff is committed to providing the finest podiatric care in a warm and friendly environment to help you feel relaxed and comfortable.
I earned my Doctor of Podiatric Medicine degree from the New York College of Podiatric Medicine. I spend quality time with each patient to better understand your foot care needs and, after presenting the options, recommend the best course of treatment. I work closely with primary care physicians and other specialists to ensure the most effective treatment plan.
I provide podiatry services in the office, local surgery centers, hospitals, nursing homes, long-term care facilities, and, when appropriate, for select home-bound patients.
