A few years ago, a subtle pain in my left heel began to surface. Over time, it intensified to the…read morepoint where I had to alter my gait, just to lessen the discomfort. Living in NYC, where walking is a way of life, I felt crushed, fearing my mobility would continue to decline. I desperately tried various over-the-counter shoe inserts from brands like Sof Sole, Orthofeet, and Birkenstock, but none offered any relief. I consulted a podiatrist, and X-rays revealed bone spurs on both my left and right heels (though only the left was symptomatic at the time). My podiatrist explained that there wasn't a definitive cure for bone spurs; instead, the focus was on pain reduction to enable a normal life. She strongly recommended I visit "the best Certified Pedorthist in NYC," Spencer Weisbond (her exact words), for custom-made orthotics. At that point, I was willing to try anything for even a slight reduction in pain, so I promptly scheduled an appointment. My experience at Orthotic Solutions was excellent from the start. Spencer made the molding process easy and comfortable while he explained everything thoroughly and efficiently. A few weeks later, I returned to pick up my custom orthotics. Spencer trimmed them to fit the shoes I brought and provided instructions on their care. My hope was that they would at least ease the pain enough for me to walk short distances around the city. What happened, however, was far more profound. In just a few weeks of always using my custom orthotics, the pain in my left heel had completely disappeared. That was two years ago, and I remain entirely pain-free when using my custom orthotics. Occasionally, if I walk for extended periods without them or go barefoot, I can feel a hint of pain starting to return, reminding me that the bone spurs are still present. But the custom orthotics properly distributes the pressure on my feet, allowing me to walk without pain. Frankly, if I hadn't experienced this myself, I wouldn't have believed that custom orthotics could make such a significant difference in my life. Thank you, Spencer, for giving me my mobility back!

We had first stopped at another orthotics shoe store that didn't carry any rockers. My son then remembered Eneslow, where my niece had previously purchased her shoes and was extremely happy with them. She actually wore her new pair when we went back, which says it all! When we arrived, we were fortunate to meet Raul again. He had helped my niece before, and once again he was so patient, helpful, and friendly. He really knows his products and immediately understood the type of rocker shoe I was looking for. He took his time with us, answered all our questions, and made sure I felt comfortable with the choices. Raul was just as attentive and helpful with my niece as well, which we truly appreciated. To make the day even more special, my son surprised me by buying two pairs for Valentine's Day. It was truly such a thoughtful Valentine's surprise and very much needed! I absolutely love my shoes. Thank you son. My niece brought herself new shoes as well. Thank you to Raul and everyone at Eneslow for the excellent service and care.

Do not trust this practice…read more After either maliciously or incompetently screwing up the insurance authorization for some routine outpatient plantar fasciitis treatment on their end, this practice attempted to pursue balance billing against my wife and I for over $3000 for around a total of 30 minutes of treatment spread out over several visits. We appealed to our insurance company, who sided with us, since Dr. Callahan's practice failed to secure authorization from them and also failed to inform us that the treatment they were performing was going to be out of pocket. Our insurance company informed the practice they were not to contact us regarding the bill again, and that my wife and I are not liable for the bill. They did so anyways recently, threatening to send the bill to collections, and our insurance company sided with us again. Based on what several other reviewers have said, making errors with insurance authorization and then going after patients to cover the cost of their own mistakes happens all too often at Dr. Callahan's office. This is immoral. It is also is against the contract they signed with my insurance provider, and we have filed the appropriate complaint with Emblemhealth. It may even be against New York state law. By the way - the treatment didn't work, and the reason insurance denied it was that there was insufficient evidence to back its use as a therapy for my wife's condition. Also they screwed up the insurance code and claimed that they were performing some tasks under anesthesia, which is incorrect. All services were performed without general or local anesthesia. Why would they make this error? Just don't go here. You've been warned. There are many providers in the area who don't conduct themselves in such an underhanded manner. You will never feel certain that Dr. Callahan's office won't botch their insurance authorization and cause you a massive headache. Whether they are doing this through some staggering level of incompetence or intentionally, so they can try to hold people over the balance billing barrel, is anyone's guess.

Over the years, I have seen very good - and very bad - prosthetists. Chris Kort and Prosthetics in Motion is, hands down, the best experience I've ever had. My journey to Chris started over 20 years ago, in a facility that I loved at the time. I was receiving excellent care - until I wasn't. That prosthetist is a superb limb-maker, but over years he and some of his staff became arrogant and the process, which needs to be collaborative to work - became a power play. Chris worked with this prosthetist, and takes a lot of the same positive approaches, but he has none of the arrogance. Nor does anyone else in the facility. Prosthetics in Motion provides excellent care without any drama. From the moment I first called Prosthetics in Motion -in crisis - I knew this place was different. The person who answered the phone was respectful and kind, and clearly educated in the the business. She immediately told me the person with whom I should be speaking, gave me the name of the practice manager and said Rebecca would call me back. I spoke to Rebecca that day and I immediately felt comfortable and willing to trust. She was knowledgeable in her intake and discussion of the facility and the process, and she gave me more than sufficient information, but she clearly also was an educated and effective listener. In the course of the first phone call with Rebecca, I felt hope that my several years of depression about my legs was lifting. The first consultation appointment was six weeks away, but when I stressed the urgency of my situation, she spoke to Chris and fit me into the schedule within 6 or 7 days. My initial appointment with Chris gave me extreme confidence that Prosthetics in Motion was the place for me to be. He is a smart, kind, talented professional. And the other prosthetists are, too. They work as a team, and it is evident that they really learn from each other, so even the less experienced folk are truly excellent. In between the arrogant guy and Chris, I used another prosthetist. He, also, is kind and smart and has no arrogance, but the facility simply did not have the depth of knowledge and experience with above-knee bilateral amputees that Prosthetics in Motion has. That experience and education, along with Prosthetics in Motion's deep vendor relationships, has once again made my life one that works really well and seamlessly with prostheses, rather than a life that is all about prosthetics and constantly filled with limitation. Finally, I cannot emphasize enough how pleasant it is to go the facility. It is airy and bright and filled with natural light. There are parallel bars and a full size ramp and stairs, as well as a treadmill and other machines and lots of room for walking. Last week, Chris spent almost an hour with me teaching me to walk down the ramp, something I have never been able to master in 25 years of using C-legs. I urge anyone who needs a prosthetist to interview the people at Prosthetics in Motion. I do not think you can find a better facility. -Eve M
