Dtr Hertsik is an excellent Podiatrist. After years of pain and cortisone shots, I finally found Dr Hertsik. He operated as a last resort and now my pain is gone and my post surgery pain surprisingly low! I am now considering the other foot! I highly recommend this dr.

Dr. Hertik is that all too rare combination of great skill and superior insight/empathy.
I've found his diagonises thorough and accurate. He communicates treatment options concisely without bias towards self-enumeration.
His surgical expertise is top notch.
He's a keeper.

March 10, 2016Michael A.Verified patient
The doctor's assistant spoke to me for about 15 minutes. He discussed the problem and was quite helpful.
Dr Herstik then came into the examination room and made several attempts to try and relieve the pain in my heel. He was unsuccessful.
He then determined that I should try a Matrix Trulife brace. He would order it and have it available in a few days. He then left me with his assistant. He never explained how the brace would work and why he recommended this specific brace. I would have liked more discussion about my problem and why he felt this brace would be a solution to relieve the pain in my heel.
He only spent 7 minutes discussing my problem. His assistant was quite helpful, but I left not knowing what the solution was.
January 17, 2016Doug N.Verified patient
I am always please when I go to see Dr. Herstik, his main concern is how you are doing...any pain or discomfort he always addresses first. He listens and is sympathetic and immediately addresses how to resolve your issue. I walked out of his office out of pain and assured that I could contact him at any time should I need to.

Diagnosis rather cursory.
Non-prescription in-soles turned out to be covered by my insurance, so now I must complete forms and send to my insurance provider.

Dr. Herstik immediately diagnosed problem, demonstrated problem so I could see nerve damage in right foot, vs. left; quickly taped up & padded my foot providing instant pain relief, provided me with additional tape and pads and rx for follow up care, and invited me back for followup visit in one week.

As always his visits are short and sweet. However he always manages to make a little personal conversation, he is after all a very friendly gentleman.
September 22, 2015Michael S.Verified patient
Dr Herstik is a great doctor and podiatrist. He's excellent at diagnosing problems, providing non-invasive solutions that provide relief, and has a great bedside manner. Highly recommend him.
More than 1 year agoConcetta R.Verified patient
Dr. Herstik was very personable and efficient. He's very competent, professional, direct, and he did not try to sell me a treatment that I didn't need.
My only complaint is the very long wait time I experienced: I arrived at 4pm sharp for my appointment, had the paperwork completed in advance, signed a few papers, paid my co-pay, and was led to an office about 10 minutes after I arrived. After this, I had to wait ~30 minutes in a patient room until I was actually seen by Dr. Herstik. It wasn't a huge deal, and I understand these things happen, but I probably would have left had an assistant not checked up on me.
That being said, I would definitely return and highly recommend Dr. Herstik to other patients.
