OVERVIEW

About Thomas F BembynistaPodiatric Physicians treat a wide variety of foot and ankle problems. Dr. Thomas Bembynista has been in practice for 38 years. I am board-certified by the American Board of podiatric surgery and also board certified in minimally invasive surgery of the foot. Dr. Bembynista is highly rated on Google and ratemds We treat a variety of problems including bunions, Tailor's bunions, nail fungus, heel pain with Associated plantar fasciitis. We also treat neuropathy with cold laser technique which is highly successful. Treatment of nail fungus is also performed with a form of a cold laser that is highly successful to avoid use a potentially harmful oral medication and limited benefit.My Philosophy is to put the patient first I will always listen to your problem understand your circumstances and review a treatment plan with all potential choices both covered by insurance and ones that are not. I will attempt to my best ability to review cost and benefit and best standard of care. When possible we try to reduce cost by doing treatments in our office and only taking procedures to the surgical center that are absolutely necessary.When we treat patients surgically the patient is called that evening to make sure they're doing well and are followed up with a text message. The patient has direct access to me always. The people that work for me have been with me over 20 years and are very knowledgeable to assist you with your appointments, insurance and any follow-up questions or concerns.

"I was impressed by Dr. “B’s” caring manner which in today’s society is hard to find. After a bunion-ectomy he called my home to check on me, to make sure I was doing ok. Later during the week if I had a question I emailed a photo of my foot and we actually talked about it. The procedure and healing process went a whole lot better than I expected so I had my bunion on my other foot removed a couple months later. I now have normal feet! Thanks Dr. B!"

I have went to him for years and so had my husband, kids, sister and mom. If you are looking for a Dr that will take great care of you. Go to him."

"I, like so many people, had developed a severe bunion and hammer toe on my left foot. Until the pandemic hit, as a Tour Guide in Ireland and the U.K., I didn’t seem to have enough time to get my problem surgically repaired. I am just SO grateful to Dr. Bembynista who has successfully repaired my left foot. The entire experience with him and all his staff has been absolutely the best....from our initial consultation through post surgical assistance."

"I went to Dr. Bembynista for horrific chronic diabetic neuropathy that controlled my every move. On a scale of 1-10 my pain was a 10! Dr. Bembynista started me on a regimen of laser therapy along with injections on a weekly basis. I can happily report I am now practically pain-free and don’t even think about my feet anymore. I highly recommend Dr. Bembynista. He knows his stuff and has excellent bedside manner. Don’t wait, get help. He showed me there is light at the end of the tunnel. "

"After seeing five other foot doctors within a five year period, we finally found the one willing to help our son, Dr. Bembynista. Dr Bembynista is unlike any other foot doctor you’ve met. One of the things that sets him apart from the rest is that he actually calls you from his cell phone. Knowing we live 2 hours away, he asked us to text him a picture of our son’s toe on a Sunday, as it fell 2 days after his surgery. Dr. Bembynista is knowledgeable about feet, and life. He knew from the moment he met my smaller stature husband, myself, and our 6’ 2” tall, 16 year old son, something was going on with him and his crooked toe. To make a long story short, we had always felt there was a concern with our son, we just couldn’t quite put our finger on it. Dr. B wasn’t afraid to mention another possible diagnoses. He was on to something that we had no idea about. Thankfully, we discovered our son’s diagnoses and with knowledge being power, we are now better able to help him. Dr. B not ...
only fixed our son’s toe, he led us in the right direction! Our son is now 20 years old and leading a confident, happier life. Dr. B is dedicated, honest, energetic, passionate, and humorous. He makes you feel relaxed and reassured. He’s not afraid to refer and he’s not afraid to tell you the truth. I highly recommend Dr. Bembynista! He makes a true difference in the medical field of Podiatry. "
