Santa Monica Podiatry Clinic Patient Testimonials

I have always been very pleased with my care.
The location is difficult for me because I no longer drive
but I continue to go there because of the excellent care
that I receive and the very pleasant manner of the doctors
and their assistants.

greg, the therapist is great! he is thorough and particularly attentive to one's foot or feet problems. he is more than helpful and makes progress. i give him a 10.
i don't' know how he keeps us all straight when there are more than one of us in the therapy room,but he does .
the radiologist is also very good. patient, efficient and concerned.

thank you, mary emily funke

The parking situation at this office is terrible & the waiting room is far too small to keep folks boxed in during COVID. Reduce the number of patients and extend appointment times to limit the wait seating to 4. Just my take. Otherwise, great staff & doctors.

The visit was shorter than expected and we thought the doctor would have watched her walk in her orthotics before deciding that they still were fine. Also no-one offered to help with re-covering them. Also I am not sure that the insurance doesn't cover replacements; they have been covered every year in the past.

Dr. Briskin was friendly and attentive. His explanation of his diagnosis was easy to understand and the treatment he prescribed worked perfectly. The office staff is nice although a little harried. There were a lot of patients both times I went to the office. However, I never waited over 15 minutes to be seen. I don't know much about the practice so I wouldn't be able to recommend it beyond my very limited experience.

Dr. Baravarian was extremely professional, helpful, and compassionate. I had moderate to severe pain in both feet with walking and standing for years that went misdiagnosed by a number of board certified podiatrists, orthopedic surgeons, and general practitioners. Even after seeing the so-called "best foot doctors" in 3 different major cities in the Southeast, I was told by all that I needed irreversible surgery or a potentially damaging procedure done. Doctor Baravarian not only worked with me from across the country during consultations to help get me on the right track, but also challenged the conclusions of the other doctors and through suggesting MRI's was able to uncover my actual diagnosis via imaging. My progress in recovery with the correct treatment with the right diagnosis skyrocketed after being stagnant for almost 5 years.! As a young, active individual, it was like I got my life back. I highly recommend anyone, whether in the local area, across the country, or anywhere in the world who is not happy with the results they are getting from their doctor treating their foot or ankle condition, or anyone who feels like they are stuck at a dead end and told that surgery is the only option for them, to call Dr. Baravarian and get a second opinion. It was well worth my time and money many times over, and I all but guarantee it will be worth yours too.
