Dr. Rimawi is a Board-Certified Podiatrist with specializations in traumatic foot and ankle injuries and foot deformities in New York City. He has been previously featured in Healthline, Bustle, and Men's Health Magazine.  Dr. Rimawi earned his doctorate from the New York College of Podiatric Medicine, where he made his mark. Not only did he graduate above the 90th percentile of his class and serve as class president for four years, but he was also recognized with the Student Service Award. That award goes to the student voted by the graduating class as making the biggest impact on the field of podiatry. Beyond his peers’ recognition, Dr. Rimawi was inducted into the Pi Delta Honor Society for his achievements in his research and his studies.  

With those accolades to his name, Dr. Rimawi continued on to a three-year reconstructive foot and ankle surgery residency at DeKalb Medical Center and Jefferson Health. His colleagues and the hospital staff at the latter named him the Podiatric Resident of the Year.  He’s a published author and accomplished lecturer, as well as an associate of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons.
