Patient Reviews

Dr. Vallone is extremely knowledgeable in his field and truly cares about his patients. He never rushes through the appointment, but takes the time to talk to you and answer any questions you may have. I wish there were more doctors like him.

Dr. Vallone, Is one of the nicest and most helpful doctors. I had an appointment today with him about a concern I had about my foot. He took his time examining me and he explained to me what course of action he would take to help remedy my foot problem.

Dr Vallone is great. Never been to a podiatrist and he took very good care of me. I called him my foot whisperer! My feet have never looked better. His office staff are also very nice and pleasant to deal with. Thanks Dr Vallone and staff. Much appreciated.

Wow!!! I found the greatest podiatrist. Knowledgeable, professional, friendly, wonderful staff. I was referred to Dr. Vallone by a friend that is a retired DPM in another county. I went and saw him yesterday and he was great. I had seen another podiatrist but he didn't give me anything on my current podiatry issues and said I was fine. I showed Dr. Vallone my feet and he knew right away what issues I had and has put me on the path to recovery. I really enjoyed his bedside manner as well as his knowledge. His front office Kay was a real pleasure and super nice. I recommend this office very much.

Had to see Dr.Vallone to take care of an ingrown nail that had been bothering me. Had an initial appointment, and then came back for a full treatment. I have had this procedure several times (unsuccessfully) and every time, the doctor had put me in pain, but Dr Vallone was awesome! He made the procedure relatively painless, and comfortable. Thank you for your help!!

I just want to say wow Dr Vallone did my bunionectomy surgery, and let me back up a minute I had my first surgery same one on the right side when I tell you that was extremely painful I was scared to get my left done I waited years 2007 till 2023 for my left side to be done because I could not take the pain anymore. So I came to Vallone office when I say the office is very personable and friendly and amazing Dr well rounded office to be a patient. This surgery went so well the pain from this surgery was 95% better than my first I say the first was barbaric and Dr Vallone was like nothing I ever expected just wonderful I highly recommend Dr. Vallone!!

Dr Vallone was a great find for my Rx orthotic needs. He is professional, kind and attentive. He listened to my concerns and spent adequate time with me during my visits. My appointments were on time too. Totally going back when I have any concerns with my feet.

I'm 55 and on my feet a lot at work. I've never been to a podiatrist until today. Dr. Vallone quickly diagnosed my issues and carefully explained to me what was causing my heel pain. With a five pronged approach (cortisone shot, meds, orthotics, night brace & rest) I'm confident I'll be back on my feet in no time.....no pun intended! Dr. Vallone, his medical staff and front office were all very courteous and professional. I'll be recommending them to anyone I meet with foot or ankle problems. Thank you!

I had an appointment to have orthotics made by Dr Vallone as I have been wearing the same pair since 1993. I found Dr Vallone to be patient, kind, and knowledgeable. He took care to examine my feet and make recommendations for how I can prevent future problems and to make sure we are making the right choice of which orthotics to have made. I only wish I'd come in to his office sooner.
