Dr.Tuckman is an incredible specialist. He sat with me and took the time to show me on my MRI where the issue was and discussed the various treatments, advantages and disadvantages of each. When I voiced my worries, he took the time to address my concerns and answer all my questions. He is intelligent, compassionate and listens. I would highly recommend him to others.
Dr Tuckman is the BEST!!! I have recommended a friend to him.
Like the time he takes to answer questions and explain everything!! Direct and to the point! Of course, his smile and pleasant personality are a bonus!!
I have had fourteen surgeries in five years he did four of them. I would rate him the best surgeon.
He is the best!! Never makes me feel rushed, listens to me, knows his stuff!! Highly recommend him!!!
Had good news from Dr Tuckman my foot is starting to heal after 2 1/2 years. What good news thank you Dr Tuckman.
Always very kind and polite and answers any question you may have even if you have asked it on an earlier visit. Never rushes through your appointments takes his time like you have the whole day.
Excellent Dr. If it weren't for him I might not have my feet.
The best! Listens, gives educated yet simple advice and is kind and empathetic.
I found out he treated a good friend and that he in knowledgeable with dancers injuries, as a 2nd generation dancer I felt he understood the 35 year of abuse to my feet now that I’m in my 70’s
