Antonella Cella, DPM

Dr. Cella, or “Cella!”, as my 86 yr. old father-in-law so lovingly refers to her, is without a doubt, “The Foot & Ankle Whisper”! Our family is eternally grateful to Dr. Cella for taking such extraordinary care of our father throughout the past decade. Dr. Cella’s medical and surgical expertise are exceptional, however, it is Dr. Cella’s bedside manner and ability to truly listen and effectively communicate with her elderly patients and their caregivers that is unmatched. Dr. Cella has a unique ability to connect with her patients; she has no limits for time or office hours when it comes to assessing her patient’s needs, following-up after procedures, and ensuring that everyone receives appropriate treatment options and information. Dr. Cella has displayed this time and time again as she would often defer or offer alternative, less invasive, treatments due to my fathers-in-law’s age. Dr. Cella understands the increased risks that geriatric patients face; she always put my… father-in-law’s health, safety, and well-being first. Regardless of the condition, Dr. Cella has always found a way to ensure that my father-in-law’s complaints are validated; she always makes him feel respected, heard, and most importantly, provides him with relief from his pain/discomfort and/or disability. Because of Dr. Cella, my father-in-law has been able to maintain his mobility and independence, ultimately, allowing him to safely remain in his own home with minimal assistance. I’ve worked in healthcare for over 2 decades and can honestly say that never have I ever come upon a practitioner, in any specialty, who consistently provides the highest level of personalized quality care and follow-up while continuing to implore tremendous patience, kindness, compassion, and validation when listening to their patients; in particular, elderly patients, as well as their caregivers. There is no question as to whom I will be calling when I decide to have my own bunion surgery!

Extremely professional, extremely patient and also a doctor that can resolved any of your problems.

The office and the surgical manager have not made any attempts to return my phone calls. There was limited physical exam. My appointment was 2.5 hours late.
