He started scaring me with all the bad stuff that could happen, and telling me if r MRI results are bad I may need surgery. I said I won't do surgery. . . I said I have a chiropractor and massage therapist. He said don't see your chiropractor till after the MRI. She might mess it up. the next day my massage therapist worked on the cuboid bone in my foot. That was the cause of the foot problem. I had tight muscles in my thigh which made the leg seem weaker. It was a very odd visit with DR. Pastore. I had the feeling he was trying to push me into medical solutions for things that could be easily remedied by my long time chiropractor and massage therapist. Doctors almost always consider complimentary therapy bad.and useless. . I am left with feeling uneasy about visiting Dr. Pastore in the future.

In late December of last year, I had an appointment with Dr. Pastore. In the 20 minutes he spent…read morewith me I learned more about my body than I had anticipated. I mainly went to him as my right foot had gone numb. It was quite debilitating, and I could not drive. After a thorough examination he explained to me it was not my foot and believed the problem to be my back. He immediately ordered physical therapy for me, a lumbar MRI, told me to find a back doctor and I started my journey of healing which does concern my back. I will be forever grateful that he did not order unnecessary tests. Physical Therapy and Acupuncture is actually what is healing the numbness in my foot. Thank you Dr. Pastore for your honesty and integrity. If I ever do have a do have a foot problem - you're the doctor!

After they took my insurance info, I was taken to a room where someone took all my info about why I was there. After about a 5 minute wait, the Dr came in. He asked a few questions and some history and then told me my problem - plantar fasciitis. He talked to me about how I possibly got it and how to make it hurt less as well as preventative care. I really felt cared for with the amount of time he spent with me as well as the information provided. I was glad I finally did something instead of waiting for it to magically get better. So for foot issues, this is your guy! Don't wait a long time before going, thats time you could have been feeling better. COVID note - Masks are required. You need to call from the car when you arrive and they will call you back when they have a room for you. Everything is nice and clean and there is nobody sitting around in the waiting area.

Dr. Parrilli is great, easy to speak to, and is thorough. Same day appointments also a plus…read more His techs are young but are very friendly while they move you thru the rooms for treatments. Unfortunately, the office staff are absolutely terrible. On my first visit, the women were having a loud personal conversation thru the walls. One sat at the reception desk, the other in her office, and they just went on and on about their personal problems. The front desk woman was in training and when I asked questions about my care, she told me she didn't know. On my second visit, her trainer was present so I followed up with my questions thinking she'd have the answers. They both gave me attitude as if I was inconveniencing them for asking. Of course, neither of them would provide me much help. So aggravating, rude, and unprofessional. Same experience as all other reviews, they recommended that I come 2x per week. When they were pushing to schedule the following week's appointments, I decided to hold off until I received my first round of bills. Glad I did and also decided not to return. The treatment costs add up fast and it's definitely not worth dealing with the office staff.

Worse part is that during the surgery for my left toe Dr. Riya Vyas only performed the surgery on one side and forgot to do it on the other side, and forgot to prescribe antibiotics after surgeries, that caused me infections, fever and pain that I had to go to urgent care by myself. When I reach out to her and told her about everything, she never even said a word of sorrow, and she push all the blame on me - claiming I required to only do 50% of the surgery during the process. I never required such thing and why would I? Just use common sense, it's not that deep. So far I never received any apologies, no sympathy, her clinic was basically just protecting her and never showed me any sorrow. Walk into this clinic with your own risk, it's only "nice and friendly" when things goes well. You better hope you never get into any medical malpractice, otherwise they will just tell you "you asked for it" with cold tone.

My greatest fear prior to coming here was that I was 1) going to be rushed out of the office and 2) have the Dr. tell me something I could have Googled, which is not satisfying especially if you have to wait for weeks for an appt.

The Dr. was able to explain everything clearly, offer options and made me feel less like a potato when I explained that I couldn't exercise for fear of worsening the condition of my foot. The only downside is that their office hour is a little wonky and they're not open everyday. Definitely make an appt as soon as you can. This place is right across from Pete's Fresh Market.
