Neil S. Zwiebel, DPM, believes that a precise and accurate diagnosis of your foot, ankle, or toe pain begins by dedicating time to you, taking a proper history of your problem, and conducting a thorough and comprehensive examination. An exceptionally caring and attentive podiatrist, Dr. Zwiebel has a special passion for bringing cutting-edge, evidence-based therapies to the men, women, and children he treats at Park East Podiatry in New York, New York.
After receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in Human Development from Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, Dr. Zweibel spent two years in molecular biology cancer research. He then went on to earn his doctorate in podiatric medicine and surgery at the New York College of Podiatric Medicine.
In 2002, Dr. Zwiebel completed a two-year podiatric surgical residency program at Meadowlands Hospital Medical Center in Secaucus, New Jersey. He concentrated on comprehensive elective foot and ankle surgery, foot and ankle reconstructive surgery, diabetic-limb salvage, and trauma surgery of the foot and ankle.
His thirst for knowledge led him to work closely with other departments at Meadowlands, including general medicine, rehabilitation medicine, radiology, emergency medicine, orthopedics, and vascular surgery. Dr. Zwiebel’s extensive training included learning to read MRIs and CAT scans — skills that he brings to Park East Podiatry as well.
In addition to healing common sources of foot pain, such as ingrown toenails, plantar fasciitis, and Achilles tendonitis, Dr. Zwiebel offers medical pedicures for fungal toenail infections and calluses. Dr. Zwiebel stays abreast of the latest technology and treatment options. He recently incorporated groundbreaking therapies such as EPAT® (extracorporeal pulse activation therapy) for treating plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis and the Cool Breeze Laser® for treating toenail fungus.
