“I had a great experience with Dr. Jake Shulmister. He was very hands-on and took the time to clearly explain the underlying issue with my foot. He walked me through my X-rays, showed me exactly what was going on, and also used a physical model to make everything easy to understand.
He explained the different treatment options without any pressure, listened to my preferences, and was completely supportive of the approach I wanted to take. He was able to give me a steroid injection right then and there, and I was on my way shortly afterward.
The whole visit was efficient, informative, and straightforward. I really appreciated Dr. Shulmister’s communication and practical approach. Overall, a very positive experience.

all staff members were very professional and the check-in in process was very efficient. Dr. Jacob Shulmister clearly explained the options for my in-grown toenail issues and performed the procedure during the first appointment.
I was very pleased with the entire appointment experience!

Good
November 25, 2025Carl H.Verified patient
The provider gave us no useful information about the issue with my daughter's ankle. He seemed uncertain of his own recommendations, did not offer any treatments or referrals. It was a waste of our time, we did not make any progress towards improving her situation.

Dr. Shulmister was very nice and listened to my concerns. He not only addressed the foot pain I was having but also explained how a broken leg I had almost 30 years ago was effecting my feet, hips and lower back now. This was something I did not expect. This one appointment addressed several issues that I have just been dealing with for years. Great doctor! I would highly recommend him.
