About this clinic

John T. Hester, DPM, a podiatric practice in Waltham, Massachusetts, specializes in shockwave therapy and regenerative physical medicine for foot and ankle conditions. Shockwave therapy addresses chronic tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, and other soft-tissue injuries through acoustic-wave stimulation, which may support tissue repair and reduce inflammation. The practice combines shockwave treatment with physical therapy to individualize care for musculoskeletal pain and sports-related injuries affecting the lower extremity. Surgical intervention is available when indicated. The clinic emphasizes a regenerative approach to foot and ankle pathology rather than purely symptomatic management.

My visit with Dr. Hester went very well. He was thorough, kind, and took the time to explain the MRI findings in a way that made the medical terminology much easier to understand. He outlined an initial treatment plan and thoughtfully recommended physical therapists close to my home. I left the appointment feeling much more confident that I am on the right path toward recovery.

Dr. Hester is a great podiatrist. After my first visit, despair and confusion were replaced by the life raft of hope, and a sense of optimism. I returned one year later to update him on progress: he was present, engaged, patient, and interested. When he spoke: he did so clearly, with compassion, and an inclusive sense of shared purpose. I left w/ an updated plan of action and the confidence to refine our plan between visits. Highly recommended.

Dr. Hester is the best DPM I have seen. He listened carefully to my concerns and gave me conservative rehabilitation options for my foot. He’s the only podiatrist that analyzed my gait and was able to diagnose my issue on the spot. I will continue to see him as long as I am in network. The new facility at Border Road is incredible.
