Barry Meskin, DPM

I’ve been seeing Dr. Meskin for several years and highly recommend him as a podiatrist and surgeon. Total rock-​star specialist, brilliant MD & great bedside manner. Very rare to find MD this competent that still obviously cares so deeply about each patient they see
.

Over the last 15 years, Dr. Barry Meskin, has helped with several foot issues I’ve had. It has always been his kindness, compassion, & the appropriate care and best advice that have kept me coming back when in need of a Podiatrist. His positive attitude, his honesty, & his advanced knowledge in podiatry are evident each and every time we have seen him.

I’ve seen Dr. Meskin for over 20 years for various foot injuries and problems. He’s always been extremely compassionate and competent. He was originally recommended by my primary care physician to help me with a torn plantar fascia. I had seen several other healthcare providers prior to Dr. Meskin, with no success. Dr. Meskin, over a 6 month period, provided the appropriate care and guidance to mend my injury. I finally was able to walk again without a boot and crutches! In more recent visits to his office, Dr. Meskin conservatively suggested, after an MRI and Xray review, that a torn ligament, should be first treated with PT, as to build up the surrounding muscles, before an operation be considered. He was correct, the PT helped considerably and I no longer having any issues with this foot.
Thanks Dr. Meskin for your care over the past few decades.

I recently saw him. Didn’t have to wait (hate waiting but I realize sometimes the world doesn’t revolve around me and other things can come up and delay doctors). I liked his manner and style. Seemed quite knowledgeable. He has good follow-​up too. Some questions came to me later that I forgot to ask and he was excellent at answering and following up.

I am very surprised with the low scores here… I have seen Dr Meskin for 2 different injuries. I have received top notch care and he is always friendly, pleasant and funny.

Dr Meskin is one of the most advanced doctors in Podiatry. I have been coming to him for years for arch supports and sports care of my feet. He is personable upbeat and knows the fastest way to get you back on your feet. His manner is positive and he takes the time to go over the procedure so you don’t have to worry or wonder if this is going to work. If your feet hurt go see him. He will give you the best advice and be honest about it. Thank you Dr. M :)

Dr. Meskin doesn’t even deserve a single star. I had an appointment with him at Concentra at 1030hrs. After waiting 35 mins, I asked how much longer the wait would be, they brought me back to the room furthest back from the waiting room (I am in crutches). Dr. Meskin came storming in the exam room and asked: «What? Are you in a hurry today?!» He didn’t even introduce himself. I had a radiograph a week ago that was normal so he ordered another one. I asked the tech if I should have an MRI instead. The tech asked him and Dr Meskin came in the room yelling: «WHAT?! You want to be the doctor today? I AM the doctor!» Shocked, I asked him not to speak to me in such unprofessional manner and that I merely wanted to know if an MRI would be a better choice. He started screaming at me so I had no choice but to open the door and ask for the medical director. I have never been spoken in such disrespectful manner. He is classless and lacks professional bedside manners. I would not recommend him to anyone. I don’t understand how someone like him is still in business.

I was referred to Dr. Meskin from an occupational doctor. I was injured on the job, sprained my second, third, and fourth metatarsal and a fracture of the second toe. Twice I have seen Dr. Meskin and I feel that he doesn’t have my recovery in his best interest. All he tells me that my fracture has healed and to continue physical therapy. I go for my physical therapy and they tell me that they need a new prescription for more visits, I understand. I call Dr. Meskin’s office requesting a new prescription; they tell me that I need to see him first before they write a new prescription. Mind you that I saw him just 4 days before my physical therapy — how significant will my progress change?

Dr. Meskin is one of the coolest doctors I’ve ever met. He not only knows his stuff, he is very down to earth and kind. I have to have surgery in the coming weeks and he’s explained everything along the way, so I know when I’m getting in to.
*Awesome Doctor
*Cool Guy with sense of humor (even when youre crying)
*Will always fit you in his busy schedule!
I love DR MESKIN! :)

Just because Dr. Meskin/​Dr. Dye don’t recognize my alias on Unilocal doesn’t mean I wasn’t a patient of theirs.
I stand by my review.

I can’t say much more that the other reviewers didn’t. This guy is the best. He really knows feet and only resorts to surgery after all other options have been exhausted.

pluses:
— thoughtful, good listener, nice guy
— assessed my gait and recommended superfeet insoles
— he is a runner and understands runners :)
— no paperwork hassles or office issues
— go now!

Busted my ankle. Dr. Meskin successfully «installed» one plate and four screws to fix my fibula. Again, another doc that entertained my request to remain awake for my surgery and only received a spinal. (Yeah, it has become a fetish — being awake during surgery — lol!!!)
Been three years since that surgery and the ankle is doing great!
