I had a great experience here
Verified patient
I was having significant foot pain resulting from heavy running mileage. Dr. Sax verified that I didn't have a stress fracture or sprain, then gave me a few simple tips, notably some stretches to alleviate tendinitis. Within a few days I was feeling much better. I went into his office literally limping, and the next week I ran 70 miles. It's been a huge relief not to be derailed from my race training. Fantastic experience. I cannot recommend Dr. Sax more highly.
Verified patient
I had 4 visits to the podiatry office. I can't say enough about it, everyone who's working there are wonderful. Dr. Sax very proffecional and extremely patient. My Ins doesn't cover his visits, but it doesn't matter, I'm still going to this office. I feel much better because of Dr. Sax.
Dr. Sax was efficient, thorough in his explaination of the procedure, yet still friendly and open to questions. I had never been to a podiatrist before and my first experience here was quite smooth.

Dr. Sax is an excellent podiatrist. I have had some negative experiences with doctors in the past but never here. The staff is friendly, the office is clean and comfortable and I feel welcome. Dr. Sax took the time to explain things to me in plain English and I'm very grateful to have found the right podiatrist.
Dr. Sax has been so helpful throughout my entire treatment. He is so knowledgable and is able to explain things so well. Very kind and was able to answer all my questions. Would highly recommend.
- Minimal wait prior to being seen, clean & well-kept office. - Dr. Sax was professional and friendly, helped me with my ankle pain. Hoping for a just as pleasant follow-up appointment. - Left the office with less pain and more knowledge about my condition.
