Dr.Shapiro is very quick to fix any foot issues. I had a really knarly ingrown toenail and he took it out like sailor catching a shark. He's very informative and very reassuring about any medical concerns. I'm lucky to have insurance to go to him but if I didn't I would still go to him!
Dr. Shapiro and his staff are very professional quick and easy fixed my bad toe issue and did quick follow up. I will recommend to everyone in NYC
