Dr. Zaiff is not your typical foot doctor. He cares about your overall health. I mentioned some health issues I have been going through and he offered to give me referrals on doctor's he knows personally that can help me. He's amazing at his profession and knows exactly what is the problem as soon as he looks at your foot. Don't hesitate, book now. I wish I would have found him sooner.

I had a week ago surgery on my right leg, bunion and I have to say that I am so happy with dr. Zaiff’s expertise and even after the operation my recovery is so easy, I can walk for 10 minutes and I can do easy things around my house. I like everyone who works in his office as they are very friendly, caring and thoughtful. I will have my left leg operated on the 7th of May and I know that Dr. Zaiff will do a great job. Great experience, Aida

Dr. Zaiff is hands down the best foot doctor! I feel that he is excellent at what he does and I would highly recommend him for any of your foot care needs. His staff is always sweet and friendly and his post surgery follow up is great. Thank you Dr. Zaiff, I can now dust off my high heels and start dancing again!

Dr. Zaiff was fantastic!! Very competent and a great manner as well!!! I had surgery on both feet and I am so pleased with the result. He was a magician, as no scaring. Thank you Dr. Zaiff. If you need foot surgery, go to Dr. Zaiff.

I feel so fortunate that I have Dr. Zaiff as a my doctor. I’m former Ballerina which means I was suffering ingrown toe since My husband found Dr.Zaiff. When I went my first appointment, he spent significant amount time explaining to me precisely what he would be doing. That’s was excellent. I’m so very pleased with result . He’s very special doctor, which highly recommend anybody. Thanks again Dr. Zaiff
