    Dr. Briskin was great! He gave me a lot of personal attention and was able to get me a stem-sell injection in my ankle. I could not be more pleased!

    I had been to two other specialists - including Cedars Sinai - and this visit and evaluation of my problem was the most thorough.

    It’s a very busy office and sometimes feel like I’d like to have more time with the doctor. But I’m old fashioned in that way. Everyone has been very kind and has answered my questions.

    Had a brief meeting/exam with Dr. B. on Oct 6, but surgery will not be done until Dec 9.

    Ask my opinion after that.

    The custom made shoe inserts are very helpful. My one complaint is that the office told me I could come by and a technician would fit them (I was busy in court as a judge), but when I got there, I was told doctor had to fit. Doctor. Bob not there. I just took the inserts.

    Dr Johnson is GREAT, he went above and beyond to deliver excellent care and advice! We’re sooooooo happy and thankful that you’ve reopened the Santa Barbara UFAI office and so glad you have Dr Johnson there to expertly help the patients. We’ll spread the word all around town! Thank you!!!

    I contacted you from out of state (NJ) because my 6-yr-old orthotics made by you when I lived in LA needed to be recovered. I wish I could remember every staff member’s name who helped me over the phone. The receptionist/assistant who took my first few calls in July was patient, friendly and listened carefully. Ultimately, someone named Alex made the arrangements for my project, coordinating with your lab. He was very helpful, too. I love my refurbished orthotics as much as I loved them originally. I was anxious about doing this by mail/phone rather than in person. I wish I still had access to your care because my local podiatry care is not great. Every doctor here who has assessed my orthotics notes how very well made they are. Thank you for doing your jobs so well.
