Dr. Pelto was very informative regarding my heel problem. He explained the issue, showed slides and provided plans to move forward. I’m about a week into the process an am already seeing improvements.

I was seen by Dr. Pelto in the office for a severely sore toe and back of heel pain. I had some X-rays that shows a broken toe. I also have strained Achilles tendon. I was shown such incredible empathy. He is so patient and understanding and listened to my questions. His medical assistant was such a great help as well. Her name was skye and she was so caring. Very happy with my experience with Dr. Pelto and his staff.

I saw Dr. Pelto at Central Massachusetts Podiatry. I was struggling with bunions swelling. Dr. Pelto helped me by providing information of what should be helpful to avoid my pain to increase, what kind of shoes are helpful for me, etc…bottom line very helpful and useful.

I am very happy with the care and attention provided by Dr. Pelto. Not only did he identify multiple fractures which previous doctors had missed, but he also clearly and thoroughly explained what he was seeing and what the treatment should be. He also took the time to fully listen to my questions and to make sure I understood his answers. And the fact that everyone I interacted with in the office, including Dr. Pelto, was extremely welcoming added to what was already a very positive experience.

Couldn’t say enough nice things about Dr. Pelto and his staff. From the front desk staff, to the assistants helping set up for the procedure, to the doctor himself, everyone could not have been professional, helpful, and caring. Dr Pelto took his time to explain the different options for my procedure, as well as made sure any and all of my questions were answered before leaving his office. I would 100% without a doubt recommended Dr. Pelto time and time again, I promise you will not be disappointed.

Dr. P is a very good listener as well as good podiatrist. He always hears my concerns and responds in a caring manner. At my most recent appointment my foot was so painful that I thought I would not be able to dance in the local showcase. He heard my concerns, discussed alternatives and solved the problem for me.

My first appt with Dr. Pelto. He was thorough, gentle and informative. He Listened. He initiated a plan that immediately helped one problem with a plan for the other problems. I have great hopes to walk pain free once again. Thank you!
