Dr. Loor’s military experience has involved extensive limb salvage operations as well as pioneering innovations in durable medical equipment, including casts and boots, which has provided him a one-of-a-kind understanding in customized care for his patients. This equipment can treat, prevent and reduce damage and blistering on a case-to-case basis. During his service, he was exposed to more unique and diverse trauma than the average physician, giving him a cutting edge in his expertise.

ABPM is the only board recognized by the Joint Committee on the Recognition of Specialty Boards, under the authority of the American Podiatric Medical Association to certify in podiatric orthopedics and primary podiatric medicine. 

Podiatry is a branch of medicine devoted to the study, diagnosis, and medical and surgical treatment of disorders of the foot, ankle, and lower extremity. As a podiatrist with over a decade of experience, Dr. Loor diagnoses and treats over one hundred conditions of the feet each year. He has devoted his life to this work because feet are key body parts that give stability, absorb shock, allow for walking and standing and are necessary for overall well-being. Keeping New Yorkers pain-free, no matter what their insurance status, is his life’s passion.
