Dr Tarantino is the absolute best podiatrist in Queens. So caring and gentle. His bedside manner is incomparable. I would recommend him for your podiatry needs in the Howard Beach area. Short wait time and same day appt availability. Staff was very nice!!!

Dr. Tarantino is an excellent podiatrist. He treated me like I am part of his family with so much care and warmth. My feet never felt better after seeing him. He has the best bedside manor and I would recommend him to all my family and friends.

Dr. Tarantino is a great podiatrist and is very knowledgable in his field. It is very clear that he cares about his patients. The office staff are all very friendly which makes visiting his office an enjoyable experience. His flexible hours help to accommodate the busiest of schedules and he never makes an appointment feel rushed. I highly recommend Dr. Tarantino!

I cannot begin to express my satisfaction with the staff at Dr. Tarantino’s office. From the front desk, to the medical assistant and the doctor, each and everyone of them was courteous, professional and made my visit as comfortable as they possibly could. When coming into the office, I was welcomed with friendly staff. The wait was about an hour but it was worth waiting for. I had an ingrown toenail and Dr. Tarantino was very nice on explaining the process step by step. If there was a medication or anything I needed , he was helpful in explaining how to take it. The medicine was called into my pharmacy and it was ready to pick up immediately. Please forward my thanks on each and every one of the staff there. Thanks

Absolutely the BEST!! Dr. Tarantino is a perfectionist, kind, concern and solves your issues in regards to any kind of pain you may have. My first visit was off the charts. He tackled the problem and didnt waist my time. Gave me 2 shots in my left foot and within 4 days I was feeling much better. The follow up appointment I had nothing less than the best experience once again. The receptionists are on point and very accommodating. I dont usually write reviews but I had to let everyone know if you want your pain to go away be smart and read the reviews, Dr. Tarantino is truly the best.😁
