    Our visit with Dr Baravarian was great, he took his time to explain the injury and to give instructions for recovery, he was also quick to answer my questions by email, we felt very confident we saw the right Doctor.
    Thank you Dr Baravarian!

    Care was great as usual, signed in but was apparently forgotten. Waited almost an hour to get in.

    I am 72 years old and had double foot surgery in March. I am walking 1 1/2 miles a day, including doing half of it backwards for therapy. I plan to be back to running in a month or 2. My surgeries were very successful.

    Thank you Dr Bob

    I hope to have another appointment with Dr. Baravarian since the issue with my foot has not been resolved. I am setting up an appointment for acupuncture and will be back in touch with the office after I discover the results of that treatment. Thankyou. Jacqueline Craven

    As nice as they were some of your technicians need to be more helpful with the aids the doctor prescribes. Such as the ankle brace with laces. Your physical therapist are terrific.

    I have noticed a change in staff over the last 5 months. many left who were also students learning on the job. Now most appear not to be students in training but long experienced assistants with Dr. Baravarian, my doctor. The care is much better now because these workers are experienced and have worked with the doctor for years. I do understand people need training on the job but the delivery of care and expertise was not on the same level as it is now. Previously, I had an appointment in March, and someone didn't show up for work and they were understaffed and I was asked to reschedule.

    For new/first time patients, offer to email them the patient forms so they can print them at home, fill them out and bring them already completed. It's easier to provide some of that info ( name of medications being taken, dosage, etc.) if you can access the bottles. Hard to know some of that info by heart when completing the forms in your waiting area. Also, I wasn't called in for about 30 minutes after my appt. time - that shouldn't happen.

    Hello there !
    *all was great-except for automatically being directed to get an X-ray of my foot. I knew I didn’t need one because it can only read “bones”- I knew it had to do more with a nerve/tendon...It would have been unnecessary radiations ! +possible out of pocket expense.
    Doc. Diagnosed with plantar fasciitis...

    Dr. Briskin was warm, kind, and simply brilliant. In a matter of seconds, he cut my ingrown toenail, relieving my pain, and ridding my toe of the pain from the infection that had developed. The toe healed very quickly. I can only recommend him and his colleagues at University Foot and Ankle Institute, most heartily and enthusiastically.
