Dr. Lieberman gets an A+ from this Professor/patient! First, I arranged an appointment for my wife who was in great pain from an ingrown toenail. That constant excruciating pain was the only thing that could get her to see yet another Doctor. The first clue that this was going to be a positive experience was Receptionist Kathleen. So very welcoming and caring, engaging and charming over the phone, and then more so in person. Then in walked Dr. Lieberman, a most gracious, caring and knowledgeable Podiatrist. He took time to listen to my wife and then administer the solution with minimum pain. Such a relief for her (and for me!!). Just a couple of days later, my wife no longer had toenail pain. I immediately made an appointment for myself for my minor foot pain that had been bothering me for weeks. Same story for me. All gone. In conclusion, t'was such a joy to meet a Professional who clearly loves his work, and is outstanding at it, but just as importantly, is a perfect gentleman with the warmest of smiles indicating to me the goodness of his soul. Have you ever encountered a Doctor like this before? And clearly he leads by example, because his office staff are friendly and efficient. If your experience is anything like mine, you will never leave his practice...it is that extraordinary! read more

Lieberman Ronald DPM Podiatrist - Podiatrists Near Me - Encinitas, California

Wrong address!!! Drove there and found out they moved 15 minutes away. Haven't had the best experience. Only went here cause the doctor I usually go to couldn't see me till the first week of December. read more

When i came to an office visit, for orthodics, there was a high pressure to get surgery. when that kind of high pressure comes from a doctor, for totally unnecessary surgery, watch out. I'll give a 3 star because he made good orthodics, but the high pressure for surgery was uncalled for. When i refused surgery, he had very little interest in orthodics. read more

I was having severe pain in my feet from plantar fasciitis and pronation. Dr. Lieberman knew exactly how to treat my issues and I am now pain free. With a single strategically placed cortisol shot and custom orthotics, I can get out of the bed in the morning and not feeling like I'm stepping on a bed of coals when I put my feet on the ground. You are magic Dr. Lieberman!! Thank you so much!! And the rest of the staff are all very sweet. I actually look forward to seeing them and saying hello. read more

Dr. Lieberman helped both my sons with their athletics. They are large men and they constantly suffered broken bones in their feet while playing sports and sometimes just running. Dr. Lieberman came in on a holiday and helped my son with his broken foot. He took the time to examine both sons and x-ray each foot. He discovered their arches were 15 degrees increased from normal, thus causing them to run on the outer side of their feet; resulting in broken bones. Dr. Lieberman made "reverse" orhtotics for each foot. My sons continued to play Division I football and never suffered a foot issue again. Thank you Dr. Lieberman. You're the best! bw read more

At first, the staff & doctor were super-friendly and courteous. But the doctor (Lieberman) turned hostile when I didn't agree to have toe surgery that day. I have an ingrown toenail that will *probably* need surgery, but I wanted to give it a couple more weeks just to see if it would correct itself (since it's been improving lately). When he insisted it wouldn't get better, I said he's probably right - but I would like to get a second opinion (a fair request). This is when he turned hostile. He grabbed his camera, saying "I need to document this" and turned very cold (while saying how many thousands of these procedures he's performed). I was a bit taken back by his new attitude since I hadn't challenged him - just asked for a second opinion. I'm sure he's a skilled doctor, but you don't treat patients like adversaries. Patients have a right to feel confident about their medical choices, and he made me feel like I had no other options ("my way or the highway"). The irony is that there's a chance I will still need the surgery... but it will be from another podiatrist if so. ---- 1 month followup... I WAS RIGHT!!! Dr. Lieberman was pressuring me to get the surgery (permanent toenail removal) that very day - and was rude and condescending when I said I'd like to wait a little longer to see if the problem resolved itself. Well, I'm glad I listened to my gut, because the toenail did indeed heal on its own - without surgery. So not only was he a jerk... he was wrong in his medical recommendation as well. I just downgraded my review to 1 star, and would not consider visiting him again for any reason. read more

Dr. Lieberman performed my foot surgery 7 weeks ago; though it is too early to evaluate the long term outcomes, I am very pleased with his practice. I had 2 appointments with him before scheduling my procedure, and he patiently answered my (many) questions, and provided a thorough analysis of my foot structure and mechanics. I consulted 2 other surgeons prior to him, and never received as much information from the other physicians. Dr. Lieberman also took the time to explain the surgery/ recovery in detail. In the week after my surgery, I contacted his office twice with questions about my healing. Each time, he came to the phone to speak with me personally. I have had a smooth, pain free recovery from what is often a painful surgery, and I credit his skill and post-operative instructions. His medical assistant, Nick, is also great and makes follow-up appointments pleasant. read more

Dr. Lieberman was excellent in assessing my foot issues and treatment. Dr. Lieberman took his time and answered all of my questions. After administering my treatment, my Rt. foot felt so much better especially when I walked. Today, 2 days later, I don't have any pain in that Rt. Foot. Thank you Dr. Ron. read more

Dr. Lieberman made me orthotics, I am an avid walker and my feet were hurting, so when I went to Dr. Lieberman he made me some custom orthotics from a cast that he made of my feet then he sent them off to a lab. The orthotics fit well and took the pain away when I do my walk. I am happy to be out of pain and back to my daily walk!! read more

I have been seeing Dr. Lieberman for several years now and am extremely satisfied with my care. Of note, I am an RN and know competent , professional care when i see it. He treated my bilateral plantar fasciitis many years ago and it has never recurred. Last year he removed the ingrown portion of my left great toe and I was immediately free from the pain I had needlessly been experiencing. He performed the same procedure on my right great toe last week and, again, I am now pain free. There is no need to suffer from ingrown toenail pain when an office procedure can resolve the issue. Dr. Lieberman has been quite professional with dealing with my healthcare issues, and I highly recommend him and his practice. read more

Dr. Lieberman is a skilled practitioner. He is gentle and thorough. I would not hesitate to recommend him. It's not pleasant having foot issues but he is experienced and reassuring. I will continue to recommend him read more

My experience with Dr. Lieberman was very good. He took the time to listen to my foot problems. He answered all my questions regarding treatment for my foot pain and even gave some hints in preventing this from happening again. I walk almost every day 1-4 miles each day., so this was helpful. Being pain free is a great experience. read more

I am so happy that I went to see Dr Lieberman who was very professional, gentle, compassionate, and skilled in how he treated me. I have MS and was told by my neurologist that I should go to Physical Therapy and be treated for plantar fasciitis as I have a lot of burning and pain on the soles of both of my feet. I had my doubts that the pain was due to anatomical issues as I had done a lot of stretches and exercises with the PT over months to treat PF but it had not helped at all. Dr. Lieberman told me he could tell definitively if I had PF by an ultrasound of the soles of my feet. Alas, he performed the ultrasound quickly and right in his office and it showed that my fascia were in the normal range- no inflammation! With this useful information I can now proceed to see if there is anything I can do to alleviate the pain I have which is most likely due to the MS and some sort of neuropathy. Thank you, Dr Lieberman! read more

At long last I have met a medical doctor that epitomizes the Hypocratic Oath and that is Dr Ron Lieberman! Dr Lieberman corrected a previous surgical procedure which had deteriorated into a painful non-healing mess. During his thoroughly professional treatment, he displayed actual "non-whitecoat" humanistic qualities consisting of compassion and warmful demeanor. My surgical wound is now healing rapidly and I am extremely grateful for his care. Our waiting room experience was also pleasantly enhanced with the attention, efficiency and concern, expressed by his office staff, Nick and Kathleen. Thank you Dr Lieberman!! read more

Organized. Prompt. Professional. Conservative treatment before more costly options. These are good doctors.

I've been seeing Dr. Lieberman once a month for the past four years both at his Carlsbad and Encinitas locations. I can't even say what a difference he has made in the quality of my life. Dr. Lieberman is the most professional and knowledgeable doctor I have ever seen, and an absolute expert in his field. His office staff are caring and professional. They are also always punctual, which is appreciated with our busy schedules. I always feel that he does everything possible to help solve the problems without more surgery. I have recommended him to friends and would highly recommend him to anyone needing a podiatrist. read more

I was afflicted by polio as a child so have a deformed right foot. I get corns at very awkward placed (like under my twisted toe nails) Dr. Lieberman has been taking care of my problem for several years now. He is so good with that and he is very careful not to 'hurt' me when he removes those very difficult corns. He is always so cordial and polite. It is a pleasure to go to him. Peggy and the crew are super friendly and extremely helpful in finding me an appointment when I need one in a hurry. Thank you so much for all that you do. I am very grateful that you have been there whenever I have needed you. read more

My 11 year old has an extraordinary fear of needles. She needed ingrown toenail surgery and was in a panic about the procedure. Dr. Lieberman and his medical assistant were so good with her. They were patient, kind, and professional. She was a new patient, although other family members have been there before, and his receptionist got us in that morning. I highly recommend Dr. Lieberman. read more

First off the office staff namely Peggy are probably the most dense frustrating idiots I have ever had the displeasure to deal with. Had the toe laser done had 4 visits and yes I have an ingrown toenail on the toe w/ the fungus which is typical.Dr Lieberman kept trying to talk me into the surgery to remove the sides of the nail. I didn't want that because I talked to people who had it and said it was not helpful. After 4 visits I quit going back because I kept getting billed for services not rendered and they were billing my insurance Company when I had paid for my treatment in full the very first visit ,which was required.After a year of frustrating back and forth calls to Peggy who never was helpful, I finally got a hold of billing and was able to get the bogus bill taken off. Oh and BTW My fungus came back within 3 months!! Which according to everything I have researched happens anyway! a friend has had all the same Issues with this DRs office I had.

I visited Dr. Lieberman with a terribly painful infected cyst. He kindly freed up a last minute appointment and immediately performed a surgery to relieve the pain and clean the infected area. He basically saved me a trip to the emergency room! I had a full recovery in a very short time. The support staff was very nice and professional and Dr. Lieberman was very kind and gregarious throughout the entire procedure. He is easily one of the best doctors I have ever visited and I enthusiastically recommend Dr. Lieberman as a podiatrist! read more

I am an oral surgeon that had a phenol treatment done on two big toes over a year ago. The Podiatrist used too much phenol and three sides out of four got recurrent infections from nail growing back in. I went to Dr. Lieberman and he re-did the three areas. It was painless. Post operatively there was minimal discomfort and the areas looked completely diferent in terms of inflammation Dr. Lieberman is very professiona, very precise in his surgical technique and never rushes. I am so happy I found him after searching extensively for an excellent Podiatrist ! I would highly recommend him to all patients. You can have complete confiednce in him...so just relax. read more

The office was on time for my appointment and the staff at the front task was friendly and helpful. Dr. Lieberman took time to examine my foot and explained everything thoroughly. He recommended surgery but did not pressure me for it. It was a very 'pleasant' experience for a doctor's appointment. My neighbor recommended him highly after she had her surgery with Dr. Lieberman. I will have to wait and see if the surgery will work out well for me, but for a doctor's visit, I give him and his staff 5 stars. read more

Had a issue with my toe nail that wouldn't let me sleep due to the pain. I almost wanted to head to the ER during the night. It was truly excruciating! Soon as their office opened I called, didn't get an answer and left a message for them. I figured they were busy so I hoped for the best. 10 minutes later I got a call from the office and was able to head right in. Dr. Lieberman was absolutely amazing. I had full trust in him from his very calm and professional demeanor. Although I just left and need a little more time to see the healing process... He is amazing. Please see him if you're in need! read more

After enduring pain in my big toe for years, (ingrown toenail) I got to the point where I couldn't stand it any more! My regular doctor said at least go see this guy. I had tried everything! This had gone on for years! Having had an ingrown toenail before, I was very hesitant to go to a foot doctor, because of the pain of the first procedure. Dr. Lieberman was very professional, and after a while put me at ease. I underwent the removal, and have not had a problem since... This guy is a Pro. I would recommend him anytime, anywhere. He is that good! read more
