BIOGRAPHY
During his residency, Dr. Cheskis was trained by a renowned group of podiatric and orthopedic surgeons. NYU is the largest orthopedic program in the U.S. and among the Top 10 Orthopedic Hospitals in the country.This unique academic and surgical environment rewarded Dr. Cheskis with an in-depth training of the latest and most effective conservative and surgical treatment choices for foot and ankle conditions. In his final year of training, he served as Chief Resident for the Podiatric service,helping the podiatric residency program expand in size within the Department of Orthopedics and furtheringcollaboration between the two departments.
He values lower extremity surgery as an art form, one of complexity that requires passion and careful planning. With the myriads of treatment options available, his goal is to make sure each patient receives the treatment that makes sense for them individually.
Being born and raised a New Yorker, Dr. Cheskis understands the pace, pressure, and demands of the greater New York City area. Your feet are a priceless aspect to your mobility which is one of the main reasons why he chose to treat disorders of the foot and ankle. He finds Podiatry to be the most rewarding specialties of medicine, as patients can truly obtain life changing results.With 26 bones and over 100 muscles, tendons, and ligaments in the foot alone, he is ready to be your lower limb specialist and help you get back into motion.
