M I R A C L E W O R K E R.
I cannot begin to express my thanks and gratitude to Dr. Carriero. I am an active 64 year old that likes to walk 8-10 miles every day, but I have not been able to do my daily walk for the past 3 months due to pain in my foot. Dr. Carriero was able to diagnose the problem and fix it and I am now back to walking again. He did a few manipulations of my toes and quickly diagnosed exactly what the cause of my pain was, and he resolved my issue with a cortisone shot. The inflammation and pain was instantly removed. To have this part of my life back again after not being able to walk for 3 months is absolutely priceless. Thank you Dr. Carriero (and Yessica for getting me in so quickly!).

Dr. Gilles and the other doctors at the office are awesome!

This has been one of the best experiences I've had going to the doctor. Dr. Gilles and his associates spent time with telling me my issues with the injury I have in my foot and the all the possible options. One thing I about Dr. Gilles is that he wants to see if I can get away with not having surgery.

Also his front office staff are all courteous and the wait time was next to none. They honor your time and make the process of seeing the doctor very easy.

Overall I can't say enough good things about this office. Great job and see you soon!

This was my first visit with Dr. Gilles and I was impressed. He was immediately engaging and friendly and genuinely cared about me and my issue. Even though he poked and prodded at my big toe and hurt me (maybe I’m a baby), I couldn’t be upset with him because he was so darn enjoyable. Dr Shaw (I hope I have that right) was also present and he was just as wonderful. Not that I hope to have any other foot or ankle issues, but if I do... this is where you’ll find me. Office staff was also wonderful. Thanks for a great experience.

Dr. Carriero operated on both of my feet within three years of each other. Right foot, he inserted a plate due to arthritis. The second was the left foot to repair a bunion and hammer toe. He is an outstanding doctor and surgeon. I have pain-free for the first time in over 20 years after wrecking my feet with Jazzercise, running, and tennis. I honestly thought I would end up in a wheel chair. Thank you, Dr. Carriero, for all your help and great care. I only wish I had met you years earlier! I enjoy walking everywhere these days!

10 years later, my feet are in great shape. I am so happy to enjoy all the activities I did before my feet problems. I am so grateful to Dr. Carriero.

My bride of some 55+ years and I have been enjoying the services of
Dr. Louis Gilles for several months now. He does exceptional work on our feet and toes which keeps us mobile and up and running. Dr. Gilles is passionate about what he does and his work shows it. He is very knowledgeable and personable and a "Real Pro" at what he does.
We look forward to our visits with him every 61 days.

I had hammer toe and bunion surgery about 10 years ago performed by another podiatrist. Unfortunately, the insoles I was prescribed after the surgeries were made using a not very accurate casting method. As a result, I started developing lower back pain, knew pain, leg pain, ankle and heal pain. By the time I consulted Dr. Gilles I was having to take Ibuprofen on regular basis to cope with the pain, particularly the lower back pain. Dr. Gilles took the time to listen to my medical history. He recommended a new set of insoles. He used a different casting method than my prior Podiatrist. The new insoles had to be adjusted once since I was still having some heal pain. After the adjustment, all of the pain was gone. It is incredible. Before consulting with Dr. Gilles I was even considering seeing a knee and back specialist. The pain is gone now. I wish I would have found Dr. Gilles years ago, I would have save so many years of unnecessary pain. Thank you Dr. Gilles!!

We are so thankful for Dr. Gilles! My 11 year old daughter had an ingrown toenail, so we called Dr. Gilles. He has the best bedside manner. She is afraid of needles, but he was so patient and supportive through the whole minor procedure. I would absolutely recommend him!

I have been going to Dr Carriero for a couple years and I can say that he is an excellent surgeon. I've had several injuries involving both feet and both ankles and each and every time he has reassured me that I will be fine. He has fixed multiple injuries and my recovery has always been on time or early, and I am able to perform at the same level as I was performing prior to the injury/surgery. I HIGHLY recommend him for anyone who has a foot/ankle injury. Heal up fast!
