I work in the medical field and my experience with Dr. Sircar and his staff was exceptional. Very professional, efficient and attentive/responsive to my questions and concerns. I have been recommending Dr. Sircar to my friends for foot/ankle surgery and have one friend who just had her broken foot repaired by Dr. Sircar at Goleta Valley and she had the same excellent experience.

I felt very comfortable. I felt heard and understood. I do think they could really help with my condition. However, my insurance does not cover this until a $3K deductible is met and unfortunately, I just can't afford. I would recommend this doctor to others.

I was late for this appointment by 15 minutes (1&1/2 hour drive) I called, I was so happy they could still see me. Everyone was very accommodating, and I did not feel rushed at all

I will reschedule, I just can't keep the appointment as scheduled. I already referred a friend, Nancy Vandernoot. When she needs an app[ointment, she will call for Dr. Redkar.

Very happy with the health care provided. Also with the rates, since I don't have insurance and it's rare to find doctors or institutions that actually follow the ethics and provide healthcare at a reasonable rate. In my opinion that shouldn't be an exception. At UFAI they respect what they stated on the website regarding this point too. I recommend UFAI and I'm glad I could go there.

I appreciate the honest feedback on what can be done to treat my condition. The exercise's that were recommended seem to help a bit. But I think I might need to address my condition with another surgery.

Dr Carter was great. He knew what the problem was and took care of it right away. The woman who made the casts for my orthotics was especially helpful and friendly. I'm sorry I don't remember her name. She made the whole experience very easy and explained everything thoroughly.
