'After a year of foot pain I decided to research bunion surgeries & great docs in NYC. Shout out to reddit members for recommending both Dr. Wong & Dr. Ayoub. I scheduled a consultation with Dr. Wong in the fall before scheduling my procedure at the surgical center for 2 months later. Such a great, caring team from initial visit to scheduling to post surgery. I'm 3 months post op and back on the treadmill with no pain. They were available for questions, LOA paperwork and provided clear instructions post care.'

'Dr. Wong is by far an amazing surgeon. He performed 2 bunionectomies 1 week apart and his expertise was proven. The pain level after both surgeries were tolerable. The incision site barely noticeable. I would definitely recommend him for any foot procedure.'

'Dr. Ayoub is fantastic. She performed bilateral foot surgery on me, and with every step of the process, she was thorough, attentive, and compassionate. Her knowledge and surgical skills are excellent, and as many patients have noted, her bedside manner is calming and genuine. I had a specific situation that required additional research and support, and Dr. Ayoub was able to work with me to find the right solutions to ensure that my experience was not only successful, but also comfortable. She is always accessible and very responsive. I continue to trust her with my post-op care and recovery and highly recommend her services.'

'Dr Ayoub is one of a kind - from our first meeting she showed an exceptional ability to not only prescribe and administer care but also explain my foot structure to me, going through my X-rays and evaluating my bunions in a way I could easily understand. She is an incredibly caring surgeon - I did MIS bunion surgery on my right foot - and she was very quick to follow up and very responsive to questions through the recovery process. Based on the quality of care I received my husband booked an appointment with different concerns and also received stellar advice and care. She is hands on in her practice and it shows. I wish that I could have Dr Ayoub be my doctor for all specialties!!!!'

'I did a ton of research on Zocdoc and Google, reading every patient review to find the most highly rated podiatrist for bunion surgery, and Dr Joanna Ayoub's profile came to the top. I thought surely she was too good to be true, until I met her. She was everything and more her patients had said! Her manner is gentle and reassuring. Her passion for her work was obvious, as was her genuine care and validation of my pain. She is an excellent listener and experienced foot surgeon with significant expertise in bunion removal and fusion. I felt waves of gratitude for having found her after so many years of hesitation. Dr Ayoub patiently answered all my questions and was very transparent about the surgical and healing process. This set me at ease about what to expect and how to plan. She and her capable assistant Amanda were able to schedule my procedure within the time frame I needed. Her office is conveniently located in midtown in a beautifully designed building with clean, modern offices. I've never had a wait time, which is highly unusual. Fast forward to two weeks ago and Dr Ayoub has removed my bunion and has since seen me post-op. The surgery was a huge success and I'm happy to report that I'm already on the way to a full recovery. I've been enthusiastically recommending her services to close family members. Dr Ayoub is an amazing surgeon, and yes, almost too good to be true, but thankfully, she is the real deal!'

'I never write a review for doctors, but I want to leave a review for this spectacular doctor. She performed bunion surgery on me. She is very knowledgeable, polite, responsible and responds to all your questions without any rush. My experience with Dr Joanna Ayoub is amazing!'

'Dr.Wong was an amazing doctor, incredible results. Walked out of surgery with just foot bandages and a cane, currently 5 months post op and able to walk and wear shoes since 2 months post op. My feet look 10,000 times better & my insecurities are now gone.'

'I found Dr. Ayoub after cycling through a slate of disappointing podiatrists following a foot surgery. I was beginning to feel hopeless in my recovery...that is, until I met Dr. Ayoub. She took the time to listen deeply to how I was feeling about my recovery, both physically and emotionally. She examined X-rays so thoroughly and walked me through what she was looking for and what she was seeing. As a patient, I have a ton of questions and she recognized that need and brought me into her process so nothing felt obfuscated. She never talked down to me or said that something was too complicated to understand. Finding her has been one of the best things to happen to me in my time in NYC. Since that first visit, she did my second foot surgery, which so far has been so much better than the first experience I had with another doctor. I actually LOOK FORWARD to my check-ups with her. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone and everyone. She is in her patient's corner and you really feel that deeply. Thank you Dr. Ayoub!!!'

'Dr Joanna is great, I was referred to her by a friend who had the same surgery successfully. From the first time I met her she laid down all the information and explained step by step what to expect. During my healing process she kept in touch and was reachable around the clock. Her technique is fantastic and my recovery was very fast. I am super grateful to Dr Joanna and looking forward to a bunion free life.'

'Dr. Ayoub is someone very dedicated to her craft. She is warm, caring, and attentive to her patients. I had bunion surgery for my big toe and pinky toe. The results are excellent. I would forever be indebted to Dr. Ayoub.'

'I had minimally invasive Bunionplasty done by Dr. Wong on both feet on the same day and I am beyond happy with the results. It took me years of researching surgeons and procedures before I found Dr. Wong and traveled from 5 hours away to be treated by him. He is 100% worth it and choosing him as my surgeon has been the best decision. I had large, painful bunions that were interfering with my daily activities and now I have zero pain! Dr. Wong is patient, thorough, and a true master of his craft. I walked out of surgery with just a cane and surgical shoes and was back to work and driving within weeks instead of months. There were only 4 small incisions made on each foot and now 5 months later, my scars are almost gone! Thank you so much Dr. Wong!!!'

'Dr. Wong is truly exceptional! My experience with him was beyond perfect, rating a solid 10/10. Upon entering his office, I was grappling with severe foot pain resulting from a botched previous surgery. Despite trying various foot devices and tools recommended by previous doctors, nothing seemed to alleviate my discomfort. Placing my trust in Dr. Wong proved to be the best decision I could have made. He not only addressed my concerns with utmost clarity but also ensured seamless communication throughout the entire process. What amazed me the most was how swiftly I regained mobility post-surgery; I was literally walking on the same day. This was a stark contrast to my previous experiences where I'd been confined to bed rest for nearly a month, heavily reliant on crutches or assistance for movement. I cannot speak highly enough of Dr. Wong. It truly feels like my prayers were answered when he successfully rectified my foot issues. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone facing similar challenges.'

'I am 76 years old and I had bunionplasty surgery with Dr. Wong. He is the best foot surgeon in New York! I only had 2 days of pain and the surgery was successful. He is so nice and I am extremely grateful. I highly recommend this surgery! I finally have normal feet and I owe it all to Dr. Wong.'

'My name is Gloria and I had bunion and crossover hammer toe surgery with Dr. Wong. He is a miracle worker! The surgery was painless! I only took one Tylenol after surgery. My foot looks amazing, I am no longer ashamed of my feet. This surgery changed my life and I owe it all to Dr. Wong.'

'I had extremely arthritic bunions. I was told to go to Dr. Wong because he is the best surgeon in New York. And he is! 2 months post surgery I am walking better than ever! The recovery was easy and amazing! My foot looks great.'

'I went to Dr. Wong for bunion surgery on my right foot. At that time my left foot was just 11 weeks post bunion surgery (done by a different doctor) but I was having pain. Dr. Wong recommended removing the hardware and shaving a bone spur on my left foot at the same time. The surgery went very well, no pain, I started weight bearing immediately after surgery. Now I am 12 weeks post-op, my feet are amazing. I am so happy I chose Dr. Wong. My PT worked on my left foot first, then my right foot. She was so impressed with the work Dr. Wong done and asked for his contact so she can recommend him to her patients.'

'From beginning to end, Dr. Wong has been very supportive. It's been an amazing experience. My only regret is not doing both feet at the same time. Trust the process, he has definitely raised the bar!!!'

'Dr. Wong is literally a God send! I previously went to a different surgeon for hammer toe correction and he completely botched both of my feet. He made all my toes crooked and even tore a tendon in my foot. I was so embarrassed and never wore open toe shoes or got my nails done since. I was recommended to Dr. Wong and thank God I was! Dr. Wong not only revised what my prior surgeon did, but was even able to find the tendon in which I was previously told that it would not be possible. He also corrected both bunions that I had on top of that. His expertise and service is top tier and always follows up with me to check on my recovery. I am EXTREMELY happy with his work and finally able to show my feet in public again!'

'All his reviews are 5 stars and there's a reason for that, he's the best! I opted to have surgery on both my feet at the same time. He corrected my bunions and tailor's bunions. The pain was minimal. Recovery has been very smooth. I'm 5 weeks post op and if you saw me walking, you'd never have guessed. I'm floored by the progress. I was originally told by a different surgeon I was going to be on crutches and have PT for at least 6 months. I'm so grateful for Dr. Wong.'

'Generally medicine is science, but surgery is a craft. Dr. Wong's experience with repairing bunions is evident. He doesn't only change the look of a foot by merely grinding down the bunion but repairs it to ensure that it is unlikely to come back again. Added to that is his use of minimally invasive surgery which not only adds to faster, less complicated healing but is also cosmetically superior. In less than 2 weeks of the surgery on my right foot I was able to drive short distances to do neighborhood errands. He is very easy to talk to and answers any concerns. If you want your bunions repaired, selecting Dr. Wong would be a great choice.'

'I have been pushing this procedure back for 10 years because of the horrible recovery process I heard about. After meeting with Dr. Wong he explained in detail what I should expect and it made me less worried. I was able to walk right after my procedure and I did both feet at the same time! I didn't have to take any pain medication and I am super happy with my results. Thank you Dr. Wong!'

'Dr. Wong is very professional and very knowledgeable in his field. His kindness and genuine concern for the progress of his patients makes him a fantastic surgeon. I can say that I am genuinely happy with my results. He did a fantastic job with my feet and I would extend my recommendation to anyone. Small incisions, minimal pain, and smooth recovery. Trust the process!'

'Dr. Ayoub is amazing. After several consultations, It was a no brainer to go with her for my bunionectomy. She has a great bedside manner and always takes the time to answer my questions and explain things in a way that I could understand. I am now 3 months post-surgery and I would highly recommend her without any hesitation.'

'Dr. Ayoub is one of the most professional and kindest doctors I've ever seen in my life. Her bedside manner is superb! She listens to my issues and provides multiple solutions, describing the pros and cons of each so that I can come to my own decision in my own time. She performed a bunion removal surgery and brought me along every step of the way. She explained the procedure thoroughly in laymen's terms, going through the benefits and risks so that I truly understood what I was getting myself into. She put me on a recovery plan that fits my lifestyle, and is flexible in our post-op appointments if things change. Dr. Ayoub understands that every BODY is different, and she tailors her treatment according to how you're feeling and what you need. She is simply the best!! If you're experiencing foot/ankle issues, do yourself the biggest favor and see Dr. Ayoub!'

'Dr Ayoub is very meticulous in her work and patient-focused. Before moving to surgery we discussed in depth all options and I appreciate how she has taken the time to explain and engage with my questions. The surgery went really well and she did take very good care of me. Thank you so much Dr Ayoub!'

'Dr. Ayoub is the best doctor I have ever had -- she is kind, communicative, and genuinely cares about her patients. On top of her being a wonderful surgeon, she has also been extremely thorough and helpful working through health insurance and billing...'

'Dr. Ayoub is the best. I came to her with essentially a botched surgery by someone else and she made sure to take every measure to identify every issue possible before doing another procedure. She's incredibly professional while being compassionate and kind. I couldn't say enough positive things about my experience with her so far.'

'Dr Ayoub and team are simply the best! Highly professional, superb patient care pre and post, extremely attentive and take genuine care to ensure you are at ease and fully understand everything to do with your treatment. Cannot recommend highly enough.'

'To put it bluntly, I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Ayoub. From the moment I happened upon her--after breaking my ankle while on holiday in Budapest--to going through surgery, to all subsequent check-ups, Dr Ayoub has been nothing short of AMAZING. She not only talked me off a ledge while I was laying in bed, petrified, in Budapest, waiting to fly back to NYC, she has done everything in her power to ensure that I am taken care of throughout this journey. Going above and beyond is something Dr. Ayoub doesn't think twice about. On top of being a wonderful human, Dr. Ayoub is phenomenally talented as a surgeon and she deserves every plaudit that she has received in her impressive career.'

'I've been a patient of Dr. Ayoub for a few years now, she did my foot surgery and believe me, I'm the biggest chicken, lol, thank God to date no pain and she did a wonderful job especially with pain management after surgery. Now my daughter is a patient as well. If I could give her 1000 stars I would! Dr. Ayoub is excellent, she is knowledgeable, attentive to her patients needs, answers questions, is very patient, compassionate and most importantly makes sure that you are both on the same page. I love how she goes above and beyond for her patients. I highly recommend Dr. Ayoub, I promise you, you made the right choice.'
