Dr. Lerman and Staff are GREAT.
I went in for an ingrown toe nail, which at the time was sore and very painful. Dr. Lerman is very concerned about your pain level. An just like he said the only pain I had was a small needle prick when putting in the medicine to block the nerve. The procedure was fast and most of all PAINLESS. The next day the toe was 1000 times better with very little soreness. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Lerman and his staff. If I need a foot doctor again, I will be back to see Dr. Lerman. Thank you
