J Scott Rosenthal, DPM

Dr. Rosenthal is empathetic, contemplative and shrewd in his recommendations. Absolute best podiatrist, superb listener and always makes me feel like time is never his priority!
Thank you Dr. Rosenthal

I woke up again to pain in the achilles tendon area of my foot. This had been going on for months. That day I had had enough and I decided to make an appointment with Dr. Rosenthal. I had an appointment within two days of my call. I had a calendar conflict and was given another appointment a day earlier. I saw Dr. Rosenthal and he diagnosed the problem immediately. Diagnosis– inflammation of the achilles tendon. The solution to the problem was a small lift in the shoe, over the counter inflammatory pills, proper exercises, rest, and a little weight lost would help. Thanks to Dr. Rosenthal’ diagnosis accompanied by a great bedside manner, a great staff and my renewed knowledge of what I needed to do I walked and not limped out of his office with a smile. Thanks Dr. Rosenthal.

I have been going to Dr. Rosenthal for two years so far for my plantar fasciitis and his orthodics have worked wonders and i am mostly pain free. Another family member has seen Dr. Liss (also in this office) for other issues and found him very good too. Both men are super sweet and caring and seem interested in you as a person, which is very rare in my experience. I never feel like he is rushing through an exam. The only negative part of the experience is his office help. The main office person is quite unfriendly and even harsh and actually once yelled at me for being 15 minutes late and not calling, and it’s not as if i haven’t waited 15 minutes to be seen before. The desk staff never smile and do not show much customer service. Over the phone they are not very helpful and a couple of times i have gotten two different stories depending who i speak to. It is unfortunate that dealing with the front desk staff is so unpleasant so be forewarned.

Best podiatrist ever! A Dr. with bed side manners !!! Listens and very informative!!!

Dr, Rosenthal is a superior podiatric surgeon! His work on my left foot surpassed any result expected. Having the similar surgery on my right one years ago, I was truly grateful to have a skilled professional approach to my needs. He truly cares about the patient as well as the outcome. I wish Dr. Rosenthal had performed surgery on the right foot as well. He’s a gem.

I found Dr. Rosenthal by searching for an in-​network podiatrist in my neighborhood. I made an appt sight unseen & didn’t know anything about him; I hadn’t even read reviews here. I went because I was having heel pain & suspected plantar fasciitis. I’ve never been to a podiatrist.
I was very happy with Dr. Rosenthal. Great bedside manner & he literally put his finger on the right spot immediately. I left with a special boot to use for 2 weeks to stretch my foot. He wanted to give me a shot in my foot for pain but I declined & he was fine with that. I’m due to go back in 2 weeks, bring him my current running shoes & get a mold of my foot made, which will become an insert for me to wear in my running shoes.
After one night with the boot, I saw an immediate improvement, so I am optimistic that I won’t have to give up running, tennis, etc.
Parking is super easy. I highly recommend him; super chill guy, easy on the eyes too. :-)

Dr. Rosenthal was extremely personable. Went in for foot pain, turns out I had a neroma. He tried the least invasive way to relieve the pain — a shot, but to no avail, the pain continued. Ended up having surgery to remove the neroma. Easy to schedule surgery with his office and the hospital. Dr. Rosenthal calmed my nerves, removed the neroma, and now I am pain free. Would highly recommend Dr. Rosenthal for any foot problems!

I’ve been going to Dr Scott for 10 years. He solved multiple problems with my feet and ankles. You dont have to wait long and he spends a lot of time with you. He is very committed to finding the right answer even though it takes a few visits.

My experience with Dr. Rosenthal was a great one. Not only he resolved the on going pain I was experiencing on my foot for the last couple of years, he also explained and made me understand the problem I was dealing with. His treatment has changed my quality of life and I love the fact that I’m pain free. Thank you Dr. Rosenthal.

I was initially referred to Dr. Jordan Scott Rosenthal by my primary care physician in April 2009. At the time I had an ingrown toenail and a bunion on the big toe of my right foot. Dr. Rosenthal dispensed with the ingrown toenail during my initial visit and we discussed the bunion. I was reluctant to have surgery since I have been a jogger all my life and didn’t want to do anything to impact that activity.
He informed me that now would be a good time for the surgery, since the bunion is not overly large and the surgery would be not be complicated. The bunion will only get worse over time. It took me several months and few more visits before I finally bit the bullet and scheduled the surgery for November 2009. The surgery went well.
In hindsight I had waited too long to have the surgery. Because of the pain while running, I had unknowingly changed my gait and posture which eventually led to back pain and Tendinosis in the Achilles Tendon of the left foot. Although the bunion surgery on the right foot went well, it took me several years to recover from the Tendinosis of the left foot.
Fast forward five years and I now have a bunion on the big toe of my left foot and am experiencing the same problems with my gait and posture. This time I didn’t hesitate and scheduled the surgery for November 2014. I am so glad that I did. During the surgery Dr. Rosenthal discovered that a large part of my pain was caused by a large Ganglion Cyst that had developed underneath the skin in the area of the bunion.
Dr. Rosenthal completely removed the Ganglion Cyst at the same time that he performed the bunion surgery. It’s been two months since the surgery and the foot has almost completely returned to normal. The scar from the surgery is barely visible. Even Dr. Rosenthal was impressed with the speed of my recovery, since I’m in the Medicare eligible age range.
My advice to anyone who is physically active and has a bunion is to get it treated at the earliest possible opportunity. Don’t make the mistake I did, and wait too long. Dr. Rosenthal is a great surgeon. On top of that, he’s enthusiastic and has a great personality!

I’m sad to report that I feel very disappointed in this podiatrist. Upon two occasions he did not remedy my foot situation and in both instances he billed me for the unpaid portion of my deductible. I have seen many doctors over the years, and in most cases, they write off the unpaid portion from the insurance company. Not this guy. It’s too bad, because I do like him personally.
I will have to look for another podiatrist which is unfortunate, because he is close to where I live.
Aren’t medical costs high enough?

Dr. Rosenthal is great. I got last minute appointment and he fixed me up fast. The pain I had was reduced 80% by the end of my appointment.

Dr Rosenthal stopped my pain in one visit! After 7 years of pain and 2 other podiatrists, I’d given up hope in getting the swelling and pain to stop in my right foot. One visit to Dr Rosenthal and I was out of pain and walking normally. He made minor adjustments to my existing orthotic, without costing me the expense of a whole new set. His sincere concern and patient listening style is refreshing to the usual hurried medical environment. There is never a long wait, and his staff are caring and friendly.
