Dr. Doug did no pressure bunion surgery on my left foot and that went so good that I opted to do the right foot a couple of months later. Many people told me stories of pain which I never experienced. Highly recommended. And when my insurancedidnt cover my initial visits dr doug reduced the price.
The friendliest staff ever!!! From my first phone call ...booking my appointment ...then treatment with Dr. Doug who gave me the most undivided attention Ive ever received from a doctor! He took his time ...answered all my questions ...and For the first time I didnt feel like I was rushed out of the examination room- hands down would recommend to all my family and friends!
We have been using LFCS for about 40 years. Great staff and doctors always give great advice and care. I have sensitive feet and need arches, Got these from LFCS and have had no trouble using them. Dr Doug is the best-friendly and responsive to my problems and those of my wife.
Dr. Doug is a fantastic practitioner and surgeon. His staff is also up there with him in their caring and attentive service they provide. After years of walking with pain from by big toe, with only modest relief from CBD, acupuncture, and Reiki healing, my pain is gone thanks to surgery performed by Dr. Doug to erase a bone spur and arthritic joint. The success with this procedure encouraged me to have Dr. Doug operate on the bunion that had plagued my other big toe nine months later. When I needed immediate attention for a devastating gout flareup and another time bursitis in the foot, Dr. Dougs father and and another colleague, Dr. Brandon treated me with equal success. Maybe all the sports I played in my youth into my middle aged years wasnt such a good idea after all, or was it? I practiced what I preached as a physical education teacher.
Dr. Leon Livingston continues to be a 5-star podiatrist who astutely listens to what his patients say, and clearly articulates diagnoses and treatment options. It is always a pleasure to be seen by him, and the support staff at Livingston Foot Care is comforting, supportive, and competent.
I hurt my foot late Wed and I woke up Thurs I was in pain and my foot was discolored. I called the office at 7:30 am by to get the office hours and someone answered the phone. Explained my situation and she immediately got me an appointment for 9:45. i broke my foot and they set me up for recovery..Any time I go the the office they are always so friendly and helpful. I’m so thankful for the Livingston staff.
Dr. Doug Livingston used to care about his patients and his practice. Now he runs it like a business, just pushing products he sells in his office and churning out customers. I am seriously considering switching to a different podiatrist. It is a real shame, because the office staff is usually nice.
Livingston Foot Care Specialists is an outstanding Podiatric practice located in Bellmore. The medical staff are talented, friendly and outstanding in their specialities. I highly recommend them to anyone needing these types of services. I am extremely satisfied and would not go anywhere else.
Overall my experience was fine. I am annoyed that I get a bill for services after I paid my copay and other incidentals at the end of my appointments. Nothing additional was done. No X-ray, no equipment, nothing and yet I get a bill. I’m tired of medical offices pulling this.
I went in for a heel spur the dr office said I wasn’t covered for this particular treatment and the cost was $500 out of pocket 3 traements.Well needles to say it was like burning $500 the treatments which took a total of 5 minutes was a waste of my time and money after the 3 treatments Iam worst then when I came in.I am now trying therapy which cost me a co pay $7 I feel I was ripped off for sure.Sitting in the waiting room there was a few people saying they have gotten same thing and worst then before.I feel I should be compensated to receive money back or resolved the problem. Not very happy and would definitely NOT Reccommend dr Livingston practice in bellmore all I got was sending them my hard earned money and bad results.
Dr Douglas Livingston is more concerned about making money than treating patients. He tried to talk me into bunion surgery which, it turns out I dont need, after I got a 2nd opinion. He also insisted that I buy overpriced shoe inserts from him before I left. Stay away from this doctor, he only cares about filling his pockets

2020-01-24Dr. Douglas Livingston and his staff are wonderful. I will never go anywhere else and I have already had opportunity to highly recommend Dr. Doug to my friends and family. I had extensive surgeries on both feet less than one month apart. I was nervous to say the least, but this is what my work/home schedule would allow. Dr. Doug assured me this would be fine and he was absolutely right. The entire process went exactly as it was comprehensively explained to me to right up front.Dr. Doug is trustworthy and CARESwhich is evident in his words and actions all along the way!

2020-01-29Went to 2 other podiatrists for a consult to remove 2 extremely painful bunions on my right foot. Both told me I wouldnt be able to walk or drive for a minimum of 6-8 weeks. Dr Doug was confident I could be up and about within 3 weeks. I was not only up and about but back to work and driving in less than 2 weeks. Such an awesome, professional, kind & friendly office staff. Easy to get an appointment. Hardly any wait time at appointments. Couldnt have had a better experience! Highly recommend!

2020-01-19I recently had bunion surgery and toe reconstruction on my right foot. What an amazing experience from start to finish. My physician was Dr Douglas Livingston. He took the time to explain the procedure in depth including what was involved in the healing process. His demeanor was professional and very calm which put me at ease. Many of my friends have had a less extensive version of my surgery and they were out of action for 8 weeks while I was able to drive after 3 weeks. Tomorrow will be 4 weeks and I have to say I am barely aware anything was done to my foot which I attribute , in a large part, to Dr Livingstons skills. The office staff is wonderful as well. They are thorough and accommodating. You will be putting yourself in great hands if you entrust your podiatric needs to Livingston Foot Care at 1685 Newbridge Road in North Bellmore.

2019-12-26I recommend Livingston Foot Care to anyone that needs a foot specialist including all my Friends and Family. I trust these Doctors completely. They did bunion surgery on both feet. When I broke my toe and as recent as last month when I fell down the stairs. I did not even give a thought of going to the ER, it was straight to Livingston. Once again I am glad I did!

2020-01-29Dr. Livingston and Dr. Ellis were able to identify my medical issue (Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome) and were able to give me a pain relief injection at my first appointment. I have had many subsequent injections. In addition, their bedside manner in wonderful as is their staff . There is little or no wait once I sign in. I highly recommend the entire practice.

2019-11-29Dr Doug is so good I sent my adult daughter to him; I even recommended my ex-wife who also has been to him. He is excellent and has a very friendly staff as well.I have abused my feet for many years, 1st by running, then by hiking many miles each year. Dr Doug essentially reconstructed both feet and I am now back hiking in the mountains!

2018-03-22I highly recommend this office! From the time the appointment was made til I walked out so happy that I finally made this appointment! I was recommended by my friend and put off any visits because I was embarrassed of some toe issues. I knew the moment the appointment was made that i made the right choice. The vibes of the entire staff is simply amazing and From the moment Dr Leon Livingston walked in. I felt at ease and comfortable. If you are looking for a great dr and his staff. Dont wait call today and you will understand why!! Thank you to Dr Livingston and his entire staff. They go above and beyond. Looking forward to my next visit!

2020-01-12Dr. Graizano is thorough and easy to talk to. She explains all treatment options without imposing her opinions on you. The staff is kind and helpful. The xray tech and assistants make awkward situations ( were talking about showing off you foot issues to strangers) comfortable. I highly recommend this practice to anyone needing a skilled podiatrist.
