I took my 12 year old son to see Dr. Dawson after his arches were giving him a decent amount of pain from playing tennis. I was very impressed with how Dr. Dawson examined my son and how he talked to him about his condition. He was patient, kind and thorough. We left with a new pair of orthotics, some stretches and so far, so good! I would definitely recommend Dr. Dawson.

I think one star is being generous in terms of rating this guy. Upon arrival for my first visit I checked in at the front desk (I went to the Murray Hill medical group location in midtown Manhattan) and asked if I needed to fill out any forms regarding my medical history. The answer was no, which I thought was strange because most doctors want to know why you are there to see them, etc. In any case, upon seeing Dr. Dawson for about one minute he diagnosed me with a metatarsal stress fracture. I have had a stress fracture before so I was a bit surprised. Anyway to make a long story short, after a month of barely walking and spending hundreds of dollars in taxis to stay off of my foot, I decided to seek out a second opinion because I was suspicious that the pain was not similar to my last stress fracture. Turns out I was right; the problem had to do with a neuroma in my foot and considering I have a lot of neurological problems going on right now, this made much more sense. Perhaps if he had bothered to ask about my medical history, he might’ve realized this. Also if he had bothered to spend more than one minute examining me he might’ve figured this out but he was too busy doing God knows what to take the proper time to examine me. I have had foot problems in the past and seen other podiatrists and he is by far the worst one I’ve ever encountered. Stay away. His attitude is also extremely condescending.

I first visited Dr. Dawson 2 years ago for a routine foot surgery. Every step of the process went smoothly and was very informative. Dr. Dawson is extremely professional and took the time to answer and explain every question that I had during the process.
You never feel as if you are on your own post surgery with Dr. Dawson, in fact quite the contrary, you feel as if you are his only patient. He will follow up, answer all questions and thoroughly explain the stages of healing that you may experience, as well as, how to cope with them. Dr. Dawson also explained the processes to my family so that they can assist with my recovery.
I would highly recommend Dr. Dawson to anyone because he gets the job done and gets it done well! Dr. Dawson is also very flexible with his clients work schedules and always goes above and beyond to ensure excellent follow up and aftercare.
Although I don’t plan on breaking anything any time soon, if I do, Dr. Dawson would be the only doctor I would trust to fix it!!! You will not be disappointed! :-)

I saw Dr. Dawson after the first physician I saw informed me running was bad for me and I’d never get better unless I stopped. If any of you knew me, you would know that was unacceptable.
Dr. Dawson diagnosed me with a sesamoid stress fracture. He took the time to explain why and how it happened, and more importantly, why we needed to treat it before it got worse. Enter cast boot. Luckily, while I was extremely frightened he would tell me to stop running like a maniac, he said I could do some light cardio while recovering. Essentially, no running. Which, I thought was good, as long as the light at the end of the tunnel was a big neon sign that said, «run.»
In addition to all that jazz, he started me on a bone simulator to speed up the healing process. I read that these things could take months to heal, but I was out of the boot in 4 weeks and was running pain free with a pair of orthotics modified for my sesamoids.
He is one of the most thorough and knowledgeable podiatrists I have been to and I absolutely recommend him to all the runners who I know have foot problems.
