Patient Reviews of University Foot and Ankle Institute

Dr Baravarian and his team are amazing! I had a very painful plantar fasciitis for almost 10 years. Tried almost everything but all of other treatments and doctors just failed to heal my foot. Thank you Dr I can walk painlessly again!

I had a great experience with Dr. Baravarian and the entire office. Everyone is professional, friendly and everything runs in a timely manner. I never felt rushed with Dr. Baravarian; he took the time to review all my options and explain them thoroughly. His surgery incorporated the most recent advances and my surgery and recovery went far better than I had anticipated. If you have foot issues or need foot surgery this is a first rate practice.

I always have a great experience. I never have to wait. The Doctor doesn’t over book appointments if you have a 9 AM appointment you are in the examination room at 9 AM. The Doctor will be into see you in five minutes. He is always pleasant and very knowledgeable and always gives you the right diagnosis .The staff is always pleasant and they will help you with any of your needs.

DR. GARY. B AND ALL THE STAFF ARE UPBEAT, VERY PROFESSIONAL, CLEAN AND AS WELL ADJUSTED AS ANY MEDICAL STAFF I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED. I'M AGE 59 AND HAD 3 SPINAL SURGERIES OVER 20 YEARS AND I KNOW A LITTLE ABOUT THE "MEDICAL EXPERIENCE" IN OUR GENERALLY, FAILING MEDICAL WORLD... KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK !

Last week I was in LA for work and I stumbled over a curb. Aside from the embarrassment, I sprained my ankle. I thought it was just a little sprain but the next day it was really sore, really purple and hurt like hell.

I called UFAI and they got me in the same day. Amazing! I saw Dr. Briskin and what a lovely man! He did xrays and it turned out I really did screw up my ankle. I had to get back to Palm Desert the next day so he gave me a walking boot, ice pack and exact instructions for care. He also gave me a personal reference for physical therapy in the desert.

It was a great experience, except for hurting myself, of course. I'll be back in LA next week and will get my checkup with Dr. Briskin. I trust him, and to me that means a lot.

Still unsure about my son's prognosis in the foot cast. He still has pain so I'm unsure about other treatment options beyond wearing a cast for 2 weeks and possibly again. I trust Dr Krlman's advice and hope we will find an answer that relieves me son of his foot pain. It's not clear to me what treatment options we have beyond the cast and how effective the cast is to alleviate his pain.

Dr. Feldman and his staff are great! The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and Dr. Feldman is amazing. As someone who is either at the gym or out walking every day, I can honestly say that my feet have never been happier!
