	Peter Wishnie, D.P.M. Family Foot & Ankle Specialists 250 Old New Brunswick Road Building 12 Piscataway, NJ 08854

Director of the Family Foot & Ankle Specialists
"I like to treat everyone including children, active adults and the elderly. The feet are so important for maintaining our lifestyles. My goal is to treat people gently and quickly, so they can get back to their activities as soon as possible. It's my philosophy that people want to be on, not off their feet, and that's how I approach the treatment of their problem."
