About Goldberg Podiatry Center
At Goldberg Podiatry Center, we care for patients with a wide range of foot and ankle concerns in Livingston, NJ. Some come to us with a new injury or sudden pain, while others need help with a condition that has been bothering them for months or years. We take time to understand what is happening before discussing the next step.
Our practice is led by Dr. Karyn L. Goldberg, who brings 26 years of experience in podiatric care. We offer treatment for patients of different ages and activity levels, from children and athletes to adults and older patients. Whenever appropriate, we look at non-surgical options first and explain the choices available so you can take an active role in your care.
Personalized Foot and Ankle Care
No two foot problems affect patients in the same way. The same condition may cause mild irritation for one person and make walking or working difficult for another. That is why we look at more than the diagnosis alone.
During your visit, we may ask about your symptoms, medical history, daily activities, footwear, previous injuries, and treatments you have already tried. An examination helps us understand how the affected area is functioning and what may be contributing to the problem.
From there, we can discuss options that make sense for you. Depending on the condition, this may include changes in footwear, orthotics, in-office treatment, regenerative medicine, shockwave therapy, or surgery when necessary.
We also want you to understand why a treatment is being recommended. If you have questions about your diagnosis or the choices available, we encourage you to ask.
Meet Dr. Karyn L. Goldberg
Dr. Karyn L. Goldberg, DPM, provides comprehensive podiatric care for children, adolescents, athletes, adults, and older patients. She treats both common and more involved foot and ankle conditions, including sports injuries, diabetic foot concerns, wounds, heel pain, and problems that may require surgery.
Dr. Goldberg earned her medical degree from Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine in Philadelphia in 1997. After completing extensive training, she became board-certified in foot surgery by the American Board of Podiatric Surgeons. She currently serves as an attending physician at Cooperman Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, NJ.
Her experience covers several areas of podiatric care, including:
Sports injuries
Diabetic foot care
Foot surgery
Wound care
Heel pain
Bunions
Ingrown toenails
Orthotic support
Regenerative medicine
Shockwave therapy
Dr. Goldberg has been named a Top Doctor by New Jersey Monthly consecutively from 2016 through 2025.
Care for Different Stages of Life
Foot and ankle needs can change with age, activity, health, and lifestyle. A child with a foot concern may need a different approach from an athlete with an overuse injury or an adult managing diabetes.
We see patients with concerns ranging from painful toenails and skin conditions to tendon injuries, structural problems, and chronic heel pain. For patients with diabetes, regular attention to the feet can also be important because changes in circulation or sensation may make injuries harder to notice.
Athletes and active patients may visit us for pain that affects training or keeps coming back during activity. Older adults may need help with walking comfort, nail problems, pressure spots, or foot issues that make certain shoes hard to wear.
Whatever brings you in, the first step is finding out what is causing the problem.
Non-Surgical and In-Office Treatment Options
Surgery is not necessary for every foot or ankle condition. When possible, we consider conservative approaches that may help reduce symptoms, protect the affected area, or improve function.
Treatment may involve:
Footwear recommendations
Orthotics
Activity changes
Bracing or other support
Nail and skin treatments
Shockwave therapy
Regenerative medicine
Other in-office procedures
Shockwave therapy may be considered for selected chronic soft-tissue problems, including certain cases involving the plantar fascia or Achilles tendon. Regenerative medicine is another option available for specific conditions when Dr. Goldberg determines that it may be appropriate.
These treatments are not right for every patient. We first evaluate the condition and discuss what each option can realistically offer.
Foot Surgery When It Is Needed
Some conditions do not improve enough with conservative treatment, and certain structural problems or injuries may require surgery.
Dr. Goldberg is board-certified in foot surgery and evaluates each case carefully before recommending a procedure. Surgery may be discussed for problems such as painful bunions, certain deformities, fractures, joint conditions, or injuries that continue to limit normal movement.
If an operation becomes an option, we explain why it is being considered, what the procedure is intended to address, and what recovery may involve. Patients should have the information they need before deciding how to move forward.
A Team Focused on Your Visit
Our staff helps keep each appointment straightforward from the time you contact the office through follow-up care.
The administrative team assists with scheduling and general appointment questions. Our clinical staff supports Dr. Goldberg during examinations and in-office procedures and helps patients understand instructions for home care or follow-up.
We know that foot problems can interfere with work, exercise, and simple daily activities. Our job is to listen, examine the problem carefully, and help you understand what can be done about it.
