“best doctor ever”
I am one that does not enjoy to go to doctors and would rather let aches and pains ride themselves out on there own. My past experiences with other doctors due to misdiagnosing or sending me to another doctor without a clear answer of my condition has made me become this way. Not to mention the long wait times with office visits while in pain. Dr Dorfman has changed my way of thinking now with his exact expertise on solving my achilles pain while not making me wait one single time past my scheduled appointment time. Thank you Dr Dorfam. You truly are the Best Doctor Ever!

“My new orthotics are a miracle!”
Dr Dorfman made custom orthotics with new technology. Like a car gets an alignment, I feel like my body got an alignment. My back is straight and my posture is greatly improved. My walk is stable with better balance. Plus Dr Dorfman is kind and professional. Five star plus!!

“Great Doctor”
I first saw Dr. Dorfman in the 1990's for a bone spur. He did surgery and I haven't have a problem with the toe since then. Last year my husband had a problem with an ingrown toenail and Dr. Dorfman saved his life. He sent him to a vascular surgeon and Bill ended up having surgery. This week it's my turn with an infected ingrown toenail. He just cleaned and cut it out. No pain. I have and would highly recommend Dr. Dorfman to anyone looking for a GREAT podiatrist.

“Plantars Fasciitis took my life away”
For over a year I was in so much pain. I could barley walk. I was afraid of surgery. Dr. Dorfman suggested EPAT, Extracorporeal Pulse Activation Treatment. After a few months I felt like I had my life back and after a year I am pain-free. I am so grateful. Thank you Dr. Dorfman for giving me my life back.
