How much does an appointment typically cost?

The cost of a visit depends on the type of evaluation needed, your condition, and your insurance coverage. Before treatment begins, our team will review expected costs with you so you understand what's involved and can make an informed decision.

Do you accept insurance, and will you help verify coverage?

Yes, we accept most major insurance plans. Our office staff can assist with insurance verification and explain coverage details before your appointment, so billing questions don't become a distraction from your care.

Will I automatically need injections or surgery?

No. Many foot and ankle conditions respond well to conservative care such as activity adjustments, supportive devices, or targeted treatment plans. Injections or surgery are discussed only when appropriate and after other options have been carefully considered.

What happens during my first visit?

Your first appointment focuses on understanding what's causing your symptoms. This includes a detailed discussion of your concerns, a clinical evaluation, and a clear explanation of findings. You'll leave knowing what the issue is and what options make sense moving forward.

How quickly can I get an appointment?

Same-week appointments are often available, and urgent concerns are accommodated whenever possible. Our goal is to address pain and mobility issues promptly, without rushing the evaluation itself.

Do you treat both new patients and long-term conditions?

Yes. We regularly see new patients and also manage ongoing or chronic foot and ankle conditions that require follow-up care, adjustments, or long-term planning.

Where are you located, and is parking available?

Our office is located at 1165 Northern Blvd., Manhasset, New York, with convenient access from nearby main roads. Parking is available nearby, and our team can help with directions if needed before your visit.

What should I expect after treatment begins?

You'll receive clear guidance on next steps, expected progress, and follow-up care. We explain what improvement typically looks like and adjust the plan as needed based on how you respond to treatment.

What Are Red Light Therapy?

Red light therapy, also called low-level light therapy or photobiomodulation, uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light applied to the skin. Sessions are painless, use no heat or needles, and take place in the office. It may be recommended as a supportive option for heel pain [link], plantar fasciitis [link], and minor muscle and joint discomfort. Here are the benefits of red light therapy:
