I visited Dr. Wachtler for a nerve issue in my foot and found him to be personable and extremely knowledgable. He listened intently to what I was telling him and offered me a thorough diagnosis of what was wrong along with many options to treat it. I highly recommend him!

Very personable and knowledgable. I was impressed how he was able to do a procedure that I thought would hurt a lot more, without me hardly noticing. Very kind staff as well.
