He was the first doctor out of 13 other physicians in the last 3 years to actually find and FIX my problem.  I found him to be humble, honest, and compassionate.  He came to me through a trusted referral of another nurse, whom he had also helped immensely. 

As a nurse myself, I did an enormous amount of research prior to seeing him and found hundreds of positive reviews and very, very few complaints.  He has spent over an hour with me and my husband at every appointment,  one night staying nearly three hours with us.  I felt no pressure from him to proceed and couldn’t be happier with the results thus far.  I am currently less than 4 weeks post-op from my first tarsal tunnel release and have the other side being planned now.  I have NONE of my pre-op symptoms in the surgical foot and it hasn’t even been a month yet.  I have personally spoken with multiple other nurses whom have also used Dr. Pacaccio and all have been beyond satisfied.  Nurses’ are extremely protective of our feet and their referrals and experiences were a vital part of my decision to use him.  He is not even a provider employed by my employer but I still choose him.

If you have suffered as I did for the last three years with no answers, feel that no one can help, or feel that you need an experienced and compassionate surgeon, Dr. Pacaccio is the best choice you can make in my opinion.

I would encourage anyone I know to seek his help and feel divinely blessed to have found him.

Amy, I know exactly how you feel. This is exactly my problem. I went to a podiatrist for 3 months and relief was very minimal for a short period of time. Now, back to severe pain and was never too satisfied with the podiatrist. She offered a treatment that was not cover by insurance before even trying some that are.

Now considering an orthopedic opinion. Did you visit one yet? Can you please share your experience with us? Thanks & hope you are feeling better.

He is a total hack butcher. He will slam all other Podiatrist’s and brag how rich he is and doesn’t need your money or business. He made me worse and I found out I was not the only one. SAVE YOURSELF SOME PAIN AND AVOID THIS GUY.

Did you go see the Orthopedist? Have you healed at all? We’re in search for a solution to a very similar problem.

Initially went to a podiatrist, got orthodics, a splint, and a boot to sleep in as well as stretching/icing routines. After several visits, the swelling went down. Ultrasound showed no signs of PF, just a little fluid in my foot and he said I should only come back as needed. Went to a physical therapist, still no signs of swelling, PF, etc. They suggested I see an internal medicine doctor. The internal medicine doctor has now referred me to an orthopedic. I can’t run, walking is extremely painful, and now the pain is not just in my arch/heel, but going up my ankle and feels like when I take a step my ankle will buckle under my weight.
