Not really sure why anyone would give him anything less than 5 stars. I had a different podiatrist tell me that the recovery time for a surgery that he was going to recommend was 8 weeks, so I went to Dr. Sunshiein for a 2nd opinion. Best decision I've made in a while. Dr Sunshein took an x ray of my foot, and recommended a surgery. However, the surgery he recommended was much more practical.

He seemed to have a more up to date approach than my previous podiatrist, so I decided to have the surgery he was recommending. I am walking around, with very little pain. ONE WEEK AFTER SURGERY! No walking boot, no cast, nothing. My primary care physician told me that you should try and seek out medical professionals who do their best to stay up to date on the latest technology and methods. Dr. Sunshein is a perfect example of that.

He does not use a one size fits-all approach, he adapts his treatments to suit his patients needs. He also uses an MLS laser post surgery to help reduce recovery time and promote healing. I don't know what an MLS laser is or how it works, but it definitely works. I couldn't be happier I read a few of the negative reviews. I'm not really sure why there are negative reviews about his office staff.

I have only been a patient of his for a few months, so I can't speak to any of his previous employees. I can say that everyone who works in his office as of 2022 are very professional, and I haven't had any issues with billing or scheduling.

I had consulted with three other doctors about my foot problem before consulting with Dr. Kevin Sunshein earlier this year (2020). I incurred an overuse trail running injury in 2019 that caused my ankle to roll inward, and the pain and discomfort eventually became un-manageable. The first doctor I saw immobilized my foot in a plaster cast for several weeks, which did not solve the problem.

The second doctor I saw prescribed a walking cast for several weeks, which did not solve the problem. The third doctor I saw recommended surgical intervention, after which I would spend at least two months in a non-weight bearing cast, which did not sound appealing to me. So, I decided to consult with one more doctor before making a final decision.

I went to see Dr. Kevin Sunshein at the suggestion of a colleague who highly recommended him. After the initial exam and x-rays, he recommended I try custom made orthotics before considering any kind of surgical intervention. I agreed to try them, but I have to admit, my expectations were pretty low. To my surprise, I was pain free on the first day I wore the biomechanical orthotics and was able to go without the elastic ankle brace I'd been wearing for a year. Months later, I am still pain free while wearing the orthotics, still not wearing the ankle brace, and no longer need to take OTC pain killers on a daily basis. The custom orthotics have way exceeded my expectations and I am very grateful to Dr. Sunshein for recommending them.

I highly recommend going to Dr. Sunshein for any problems with your foot. I recently had bunion surgery on my left foot using the new Lapiplasty System. It is healing up fast and less pain than doing it the old way which I had done on my right foot 15 years ago. His staff if friendly and a special shout out to Cheryl who does wonders on scheduling your surgery and billing your insurance.

Met Dr. Sunshein for the first time today. The physician I had met previously in his office had moved away and he was taking over my care. I requested to meet with him and review my case before casting my orthotics. He was very through in reviewing what had previously been done. We reviewed the X-rays, how the foot should function and how mine isn't function the correct way. Discussed thoroughly the use of new orthotics I'll be cast for next week.

I appreciated the review of what was done and explanations of what the orthotics can do for me. Met the staff again and they were all very nice and professional. Thank you for a great first visit Dr. Sunshein!

Terrible experience working with the office staff. Incorrectly billed multiple times. Received letters threatening collection and reporting on my credit when my account has been OVERPAID for months. Have been working with billing for 4 months trying to get the overage refunded and billing errors corrected. As of today issues continue to be unresolved. This podiatrist does good work but it is not worth the trouble of dealing with his staff.

Dr Sunshein has been my podiatrist for several years and, in fact, has performed a rather rare surgery on my foot with great results. I now can walk without pain post-surgery. This is a big deal, as I used to be a distance runner and am still very active. Having a podiatrist one can trust and who remains in the cutting edge of the latest technology in foot care is very important to me. Dr Sunshein's MLS Laser is also a wonderful resource in healing torn foot and ankle tissue and broken bones.

I will add that Dr Sunshein is also very philanthropic and supports my foundation every year. His generosity of time and resources is deeply appreciated. I will never go elsewhere for my Podiatry needs.

Dr. Sunshein was excellent! He was able to diagnose a problem that I've had for years (and seen other podiatrists without success) and recommend a course of action that has been working great! I thought that I would have to need surgery and would never run again. Dr. Sunshein has caused my daily pain to go away and I am on my way to recovery. I can't say enough good things about the service he provides!

I was referred to Dr. Sunshein from my chiropractor after having a bad experience from another local podiatrist. Dr. Sunshien's office promptly scheduled an appointment for me. The staff was friendly and very helpful. I have plantar fasciitis and was having trouble putting any type of pressure on my feet. I was fitted for an ortho. My feet feel great! Dr. Sunshein has been the best thing that has ever happened to my feet! I have referred many to his office and will continue to do so.

Terrible service! Cancel appointments without any concern for patients. They said they called my 'daughter' and she cancelled the appointment. I do NOT ve a daughter. How could they talk to her? No apologies, send me to another doctor, arrogant, petty service!
