PA Foot & Ankle Associates Review

Received excellent attention and care regarding the condition of my feet, etc.
I need to move up next appointment due to ingrown toenail.

Best doctor in the Lehigh Valley! Professional and curtious staff, I would highly recommend PA foot & ankle associates!

terrible. doctor Rocchio has as much compassion as a snail.
Post op care and information lousy.
Wouldn't not go to him again.

I give a 5 excellent service! I have Dr. Teichman, he's very involved with my service while I'm there. If I have any questions I get answers.

I get my toe nails done being diabetic. The appointments are available during the time frame. I need.

I would definitely suggest anybody to go there!

Hands down the best podiatrist we have been to! From getting us an appointment right away, to being friendly, kind, and honest. I am so happy we found you! Thank you, for your excellent service!

Dr. Balliot is the best! Staff is friendly and professional

Dr. A.T. is second to none. His attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile for his patient is obvious. However, he is a Giants fan. But we won't hold that against him - 5 stars!

Dr. Teichman has always managed to correct my foot issues, from a bunion removal to toenail fungus.

I was diagnosed with Plantar Fasciitis in my left foot, and Metatarsalgia Capsulitis In my right foot. I have been using a night splint, and I had physical therapy. I am using inserts in my shoes and everything is helping with the pain. I am very pleased with the treatment and I am getting better since my first visit with Dr. Teichman.

Daughter had appointment scheduled on 10/14/19 and I waited more than two hours for her to be seen. On 10/30, waited for more than an hour and asked to be rescheduled and was for an 11/7 7:15 am appointment. When scheduled, was promised to be the second appointment but of course, three people were called in before my daughter (I m writing this as I wait). The doctor is knowledgeable and the staff is apologetic but the practice wasn t run like this in the past. My recommendation would be to stop over scheduling your patients so people don t have to wait the way they do to be seen by a doctor. I d expect these waiting times at Dorney Park, not here. **7:47 am, still waiting. **7:56 am, still waiting. **saw doctor at 8:05. Front desk mishap caused delay. Will give benefit of doubt to office and revise after next visit

Dr. Rocchio's treatment of my problem was fine and appropriate. The office staff and running of the office needs some help. I am still waiting for a bill as I received one and when I went to pay it, the woman in the office said I owed them more money. They are to send me an itemized statement and I have NOT received it. Soon enough they will get what they billed me and NO MORE.

Worst office, front desk is a mess - waited several hours to be seen. Dr. overcharged and employees had no clue how to wrap legs. This practice should be permanently closed down and the doctors licenses revoked. I have never seen such a mess and so many people waiting because the front desk can't schedule properly.
Avoid this messed up practice and look elsewhere.

everyone was friendly and professional, with the coronavirus all were masked and handsanitizer avaialable. appointment was on time. dr bush has provided excellent care and allowed me to continue to work with my pain greatly reduced. i do recommend this practice

Dr. Busch is very friendly, honest and invests a lot of time into his patients. He is very thorough and does his absolute best to figure out things that no one else can! He goes above and beyond in patient care! I was referred by another physician and he has truly invested time in me trying to figure out what is going on. He went over all past mri s I had done to verify the changes in my foot. He even called the place that did the recent mri and asked them to have them looked at again, he found something that was missed! When they reread them, they agreed they should do another mri. He even called me after hours to explain results to me! There are many doctors out there, but not all of them have patient care and so much knowledge. He is super intelligent and highly rated, I truly wish I could give him more stars because he deserves them. Thank you for everything you have done and are currently doing. Nothing that you do that is above and beyond goes unnoticed!

I found that I had cracking under my toes, and being a newly diagnosed diabetic, I was a little nervous. I made an appointment with Dr. Teichman after hearing about him on WAEB radio. I was very pleased with my experience, from the women at the desks to the assistant in the examine room and especially Dr. Teichman!! Dr. Teichman has a great personality and really made me feel comfortable. Turns out it was athlete's foot but the peace of mind was worth it's weight in gold!!!
Thanks! Francene

My husband came to this office a few weeks ago and I went today we were very happy with this office. All of the reseptionists and nurses are so nice, and Doctor Teichman was super nice and he did a great job . We love coming here.

DR TEICHMAN OPERATED ON MY TORN ACHILLES TENDON. GREAT JOB. RECOVERING QUICKLY. VERY PLEASANT OFFICE STAFF. PROMPT APPTS. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. UPDATE. SIX MONTHS AFTER OPERATION AND FEELING GREAT. AND ELITE THERAPY RIGHT NEXT DOOR DID A FANTASTIC JOB WITH THEIR END OF THE PROCESS. THIS TEAM IS STRAIGHT ACES IN MY BOOK.

I have been a patient of PA Foot and Ankle Associates for nearly 10 years. I have seen Dr. Rocchio and Dr. Newton, both doctors are knowledgeable and provide excellent care. I am confident in the care I receive from them.

They were so great! Dr. Adam Teichman was friendly, personable, fast and super smooth. He was 10 times faster and smoother than where I went for my last ingrown toenail. The other staff were all friendly as well. PA Foot & Ankle Associates in Allentown is a 10/10 recommend.

You are the best.
PA foot Ankle in the Area..

Very bad service and becare fool they charge what you don t even have service they forgot when went frist time told me they give me the temp the boot say take it if you don t like then you can return we will refund then I take back they we don t take back they told me we will priscaption they didn t do it second time I went I didn t got the shot on heal I still got the charge

Wasn't too concerned with fixing my foot pain. Solution was to give a shot and then come back in a few weeks. Did that and then it was come back in another few weeks to see if any changes. and then another few weeks. Scam job. No thanks

If your time is valuable dont bother.
My 1st appointment i waited 45 minutes.
My 2nd appointment was cancelled per the office.
My 3rd appointment i sat from 10:45 until 11:37 i finally walked out.

The office called and left a message that if i came back they would take me back asap to be seen??!!?? Really
No thank you, i cannot waste any more of my time sitting in there waiting room.

The reviews are correct

Dr Teichman treated me for a heel spur. He did the electric shock wave therapy and so far I'm very pleased with the results.Ther'e's no cut, no scar and no down time...and no pain
He also did surgery on my son's both feet this summer and so far we're very pleased with the results and the recovery has been good.
He's very knowledgeable about the processes and answered all our questions and made us feel very comfortable.

You will not find a better Dr. than Doctor Rocchio. I am a diabetic who lost a leg while under the care of another foot care Doctor. Since I switched to Pa Foot and Ankle and Dr. Rocchio I have received excellent care from the office staff and nurses to Doctor Rocchio. Take my word for it , you can't get better treatment. Thanks to everyone at Pa Foot and Ankle and I wish a Merry Christma and Healthy Happy New Year to you all.

Feet sore going into the office ....left with my feet feeling Great every time.

I wish I could give this practice negative stars. It will be the first and last time I go here. I waited over 1 hour to be seen. The place was way overbooked to the point that there were no seats and a line to check in with people still walking in. Awful! Why over book people?!?!! Then to be seen by the doctor for 3 min. And then a line to check out!! I walked out! I will not be visiting again. I only went here because the good rating outweighed the bad. I m beginning to think they are fake reviews.

I went to Dr. Rocchio with a broken ankle. After x-rays (by the Dr), it was determined that I would need surgery as the ball was not properly in the socket anymore.
Dr. Rocchio placed a plate and crafted a hook that would help the ankle heal and added screws. While the recovery seemed to take forever the result was fantastic!
The incident occurred in August and we just returned from a vacation to Walt Disney World and Key West and as long as I remembered to ice the ankle at the end of the day I was "good to go" for another 20,000 steps the next day.
Dr. Rocchio is the best!!!

I would like to thank dr.elliot and his staff for helping us through one of the most difficult times in our lives.your professionalism and kindness was very much appreciated, you all made a difference.thank you for putting me back together and on my feet again.god bless!

When my left large toe became infected with an ingrown toe nail, this Atrium
office, after 3 visits, corrected the problem, and it has not returned.
Thank you PA Foot and Ankle.

Beware! This practice is only trying to get as much money from your insurance company and from you that it can. I was prescribed a special cream that did absolutely nothing but cost over $1200 for my insurance company. In addition, it came with a warning that you should not touch pets or children and wash your hands after applying it and wear socks so it didn't transfer anywhere! My daughter and I were fitted for orthotics and the invoice was rushed through on the last day of the year. My insurance paid $500 for my orthotics and $500 for my daughter's. Over one year later an invoice for another $500 for mine and another $500 for my daughter's orthotics arrived. I was told there was no mistake and that my insurance company did pay $1000 for our orthotics already over a year ago!!! The front office staff was impersonal and indifferent. Since that horrid experience I have found a wonderful podiatrist that cares about people and has helped my daughter with her issues. PA Foot and Ankle should be investigated for overcharging and taking advantage of insurance companies and patients. It is a money making machine and the oath that was taken has long been forgotten.

receptionist was very friendly when i came in nurses also very friendly attitude in the office was very happy seemed everyone enjoyed being at work

My children and I have been patients at this practice and have had a great experience with the staff and the treatments.

Great experience. My daughter broke her ankle and they fixed it up great. Always treated us kindly and patiently. Explained everything in detail that we could understand. Would recommend them to anyone in need of service.

It was a good app. Was really happy that there was no pain.
The doctor was very nice and explained everything I asked about so I knew what was being done to my feet.
There was some soreness but that was healed in few days. My feet were not in good shape now they are much better.

I arrived too late for my appointment. I was a half hour late. The staff was very kind and
understanding and proceeded to schedule another appointment
very soon cheerfully.

Dr Elliott Busch is superb, knows his stuff, and he is able to explain it well enough to understand. He's gentle with office procedures and, from what I've researched, an awesome trauma doctor. The office was very busy, but moved along well as could be. CDC guidelines were being followed, with temperature checks. I feel secure putting my feet in his care.

PA Foot and Ankle Associates is a wonderful place. I never waited long in the waiting room or the office. The doctor I saw was so nice. I reccommend this office 100%

I would say Dr Teichman was great today with making me feel good, I was stressed this morning over a place on my foot since I lost a big toe from diabetes a year ago when he was done just a little mark,was all that was there. Then MA- Beata took care of nails and callous, Also when I called this morning they got me in a hour later.

Dr. Tabchi and the staff at Chew st. were very accommodating on how quickly they saw me after my broken toe and follow up appointments! Very pleasant and professional. Great job!

Not at all happy with the office staff. Especially the office manager.. Very rude no customer service skills. Also the lady you give your co-pay too she seems mad at the world. A smile and please and thank you go a long way.. Its all about customer service..

I am very glad I trusted my instincts and chose East Penn Foot and Ankle and Dr. Teichman. My 13 year old daughter had a bunion that was starting to become fairly disfiguring and very painful. Dr. Teichman quickly charmed us with his friendly and easy going manner, but backed up that charm with unparalleled knowledge and surgical skill. My daughters foot is beautiful and we couldn't be happier!!! A big THANK YOU to you and your staff!! YOU ROCK!!

I've visited offices twice so far and I know now that I have found the right podiatrist for my needs and those of my wife.

Worst experience. Beware! He makes you take equipment and stuff that won't help you. They bill you after over a year on things you never had done!! Beware Beware!!

Dr. Teichman is excellent and I received immediate relief from a foot problem I put off for two years. He also performed minor surgery that went well and am now receiving therapy. The entire staff is pleasant and efficient. I would recommend this practice to anyone with a foot problem. A+++

PA Foot and Ankle are the best in Allentown
Easton and Landsford PA. I have seen Dr Busch and Dr Teichman. I live 5 min from Lansford and seen Dr Busch a few times but drive to Allentown because I have been seeing Dr Techiman. Since 2015. He saved me from
Losing my foot.He explains everything answers any questions you have. I have diabetes so I get sores often. Call if you need Dr Teichman is great in Allentown. I call sometimes when I see a small place on my foot and they get me in right away.

Dr. Rocchio is great. Took the time to listen to my problems and treated them effectively.
The only downside of this practice, because they are very busy, is they over book their doctors and you experience a long wait time in the waiting room and in the exam room. On average, a typical appointment took an hour and I saw the Dr for less than 10 mins.
Waiting in the waiting room for 30 mins or longer past your appointment time is not acceptable to me as a patient, especially when they can refuse to see you if your late. I always arrived 5-10 minutes before my appt time and was never called back less than 30 mins after my appt time.

Tried contacting just about every podiatry group in the Lehigh Valley for an infected ingrown toe nail. Unfortunately several practices never bothered returning my phone calls! I was able to get a quick appointment with Dr. Newton who did a great job with removing the nail. I had one of the last appointments of the day but still didn't have to wait too long. I'm sure he wanted to get out of the office and go home, but he was more than willing to take the time, provide additional rounds of anesthetic, and wait before performing the procedure. Overall, very satisfied.

I'm a 83yo man with type-2 diabetes and I have been using podiatrists for more than 50 years. I recently changed to PA Foot & Ankle Associates and, I couldn't believe what treatment that I was missing prior selecting PA Foot Associates. They provide outstanding service. Everyone is pleasant and friendly. I highly recommend their outstanding service.

Did not have a good experience...Charged me for things they did not do. That aside, he made an assumptive diagnosis before even looking at my foot or the x-ray. He was not familiar with my injury which is not that common, but not that uncommon either. Not a particularly good bedside manner...Waste of time and money. Did not help...

I went to Pa Foot and Ankle and Associates for a second opinion. I had been seen by another orthopedic Doctor in Allentown but was told my foot was fine. No fractures. Since I was still having severe pain and was unable to put full weight bearing on that right foot, I knew I needed a second opinion. I made one with Pa Foot and ankle and I was seen there. The Dr ordered a MRI and when the results can back I did indeed have several fractures in my foot and one in my ankle. He immediately put me in a walking boot and started telling me that I need injections in the bones in my foot. This shocked me since I had never heard of this. I requested to stay in the boot until they healed but he did not agree. He asked me to follow up in several weeks which I did and I explained my foot my ankle and foot feeled much better. The Dr kept insisting that I have these injections done. Not really explaining the procedure in detail to me. I made up my mind noto have this done. I left and then had a third Doctor check my foot and ankle and I was given a clean bill of health and the boot could be removed. That was over 3 months ago and my foot and ankle are fine. I definitely was not satisfied with the care I received at Pa Foot and Ankle Associates!

Excellent doctor. My foot has never felt better. Thanks to Dr. Rocchio I am now looking forward to walking through Walt DisneyWorld with my grandchildren!

A busy practice, which in my limited experience (one visit -- and it will be my last) is expert at extracting money from patients and insurance companies. I came with a relatively mild problem, was given an inexpensive shoe insert, which was about all I needed. They tried to sell me a $60 shoe insert, but would not let me open the package to try it on to make sure it was the appropriate size, so I declined. The doctor mentioned a topical analgesic, which sounded reasonable, but I forgot about it and left the office without it. A few days after my visit, a package with 8(!) tubes of lidocaine, and one tube of diclofenac -- a VERY expensive cream - arrived, for which my insurance company was charged close to $1000. Also enclosed in the package was a form to sign authorizing this very expensive medicine to be refilled monthly!
I imagine many patients don't bother to check on the prices, so insurance companies (i.e., policyholders) and Medicare (i.e., taxpayers) pay enormous amounts for medicines of marginal value, while practices like this one profit handsomely. Oh, and they also want to sell me custom orthotics!

Both Dr. Rocchio and Dr. Teichman are fantastic.
I have had surgeries on my feet by both of them with total success. They are the best!

Excellent care given by all staff. Was very observant with all my needs. Couldn't have found a better place!

Dr. Teichman is the best! I was given a full explanation of my procedure and expected physician limitations following surgery. Dr. Teichman's techniques and instructions were fantastic and right on. I was given a timeline for approximate dates to return to work, wear heels, run/exercise, etc. I followed his recommendations exactly and am back to myself (without the pain I had previously). Dr. Teichman was so thorough he even made sure I had scar cream- I'm certainly not a foot model but I really do appreciate his meticulousness. Thanks Dr. T!!

I had a good experience my surgery was a success I'm very happy will go back for my other foot.

Best podiatrist in the Lehigh Valley. I've had a bunch of problems with my feet, like bunions and sesamoiditis, and Dr Teichman took care of them both.

Next to whitewater rafting, going to the Podiatrist is my favorite thing.

I have been going every year for check up. The office staff and Doctors are very professional and friendly.

Excellent communication, great service and everything was very well explained and NOT rushed. Dr Teichman went above and beyond for me and my son with his Ankle issues. Thank you Dr Teichman

I've visited the office 3 times and had great results from each visit. I'm an athlete and needed someone who understood my need for an efficient, quick recovery. I highly recommend this office.

It is always a pleasure going there, the staff goes above and beyond the call of duty to take care of you.Great place.

If you have ANY foot issues PA Foot & Ankle Associates is THE place to go! I had a foot issue, and with their help, it was resolved. They also offer great orthotics for your shoes. If you have any foot problems, PA Foot & Ankle will be able to help you.

I faced foot pain from running and wearing any type of shoe for years before I finally decided to see Dr. Teichman for my bunions. He explained everything to me and answered all of my questions before I decided to go through with bunionectomies on my feet. I was walking the DAY AFTER my surgeries and now that I am a year out from the procedure, I can t believe it took me so long to have it done. PA foot & ankle is simply the best. I never used crutches, I was comfortable and confident immediately after the procedure, and Dr. Teichman Made every step of the process as painless as possible. I didn t even have stitches that needed to be removed! You would never notice the scar unless you knew I had the surgery. Coming from someone in the medical field, I trust this doctor and his whole office with my care. He even took photos during the procedure for me to see because I asked him to!! Thank you Dr. Teichman & the rest of the clinical team at PA foot & ankle! If I can give any advice from my experience...it would be not to wait!!!

Recently had a cartiva implant of the 1ST MP joint. Great results! I'm not even one week since surgery and am completely impressed with the skill used with this procedure. Thanks Dr. Teichman.

After finding out about my previous surgery's dr refuse to help me.

I had a very awesome experience at your office and I will recommend your services...I will call your office this week. I will need your services in the future.

Review for MicroVas Therapy for RSD / Neuropathy:

I came to Dr. Adam Teichman at the end of March 2014. I wanted his help to treat my Reflexive Sympathetic Dystrophy (RSD) a very painful neurological condition. I have had RSD in my left foot and ankle since my ankle injury in December 2010. I have chronic pain, swelling, discoloration, numbness, tingling of the lower left extremity. Dr. Teichman recommended I try the MicroVas Therapy. MicroVas therapy involved placing adhesive electrodes on my legs and hooking them up the MicroVas Unit which supplies some electric current (adjusted to comfort level). Feels like a pulsating sensation, no pain! I found during my MicroVas session I was very relaxed.

I found that having this therapy has helped me immensely! I can actually see the outlines of my ankle/foot. Before my ankle/foot was so swollen you could not see this. The therapy reduced my swelling and helped lower my pain!! I felt my legs become more alive and energetic. I had not had that feeling since before my injury. I had a reduction in the numbness, tingling, and discoloration. I did a total of 36 sessions from April to June 2014. I had 45 minutes sessions three times a week. MicroVas has helped me more than physical therapy which tended to cause more pain rather than relieve it.

I recommend that if you experience poor circulation, numbness, tingling, discoloration, RSD to you foot/ankle, to schedule and appointment with Dr. Teichman to discuss trying MicroVas Therapy!

I called for an appointment at their east stroudsburg office for 830 in the morning. I get a phone call the day before my appointment stating that I had to reschedule for another day. I asked if there was a later time, and they told me 1145. So I get there 15 minutes prior to my appointment and no one is there. Not a single soul. I waited, still no one. Then I call the office and they tell me that no one will be there until 130. How UNPROFESSIONAL!!!!!!! Never got to see a doctor because he didn't feel like coming in because I was the only patient scheduled. Never going to, and I would never recommend.

All personnel plus doctor were professional and pleasant.

Very good service all the way around, From front office to patient care. Thank you.

I had foot pain problem and found an exercise from PA Foot & Ankle. The result is amazing and I told many people I know (everyone healed) Thanks. Tony

Apparently wait times at the offices have increased as they are dealing with the departure (for unspecified reasons) of at least one of the professionals... Some other patients made speculative comments to one another in the waiting room, but without other info, they're hard to verify. However, they are still able to be as courteous and diligent as I've known them to be since I was introduced to them years ago.

I broke my ankle playing hockey and Dr. T got me back on the ice as quickly as possible.

Very friendly and they answered questions for me and took a real interest in me.

Doctors were great and explained everything so I could understand the information. The nurse were very nice and remember who you are and always greated you with a smile

Appointment was at 12:15 and we didn't get into a room until 12:40 and were waiting until 1:00 for anyone to even come into the room. We had a similar circumstance happen the prior 2 times.

Dr.t however is very nice
