Patient Reviews of University Foot and Ankle Institute

I honestly wish my Primary Care Physician was as easy to get along with as Dr. Briskin. The whole experience has been positive, my foot has healed well, and I’m able to do what I need and want to do once again. And every member of the staff I’ve worked with has been great. I would recommend UFAI to anyone for their foot health care needs.

Terrific. However, I need to make an appointment for my left foot ingrown toenail. I left a message to make appointment, but did not get a call back. I would appreciate it if someone would call me back. Thank you!

The office is located in Suite 140 on the first floor providing easy access from the parking lot. That's a REAL plus for me using a walker and experiencing pain with every step.

The check-in staff were warm and welcoming. They already had my insurance information, but I had to complete an extensive health and medical background survey.

I no sooner finished the survey and my name was called to come into the examination room. The technician had me sit on a beautiful high back, leather chair that was on a pedestal, which she then elevated even higher in order for my feet to be at her eye level. She covered my toes with a cotton gauze strip dipped in alcohol to prepare them for Dr. Kelman.

The Dr came into the room shortly thereafter and recognized me from Los Robles Rehabilitation Hospital in Westlake Village where we met in September while I was recovering from a Stroke. Dr. Kelman is a very warm and personable guy and makes you feel very much at ease. He then proceeded to clip my toenails.

Afterward, the technician returned with a battery powered filer, filing and shaping each toenail while eliminating any rough edges. She then put on my shoes and off I went.

It was a very positive and professional experience that I would highly recommend to anyone with back problems like me who has difficulty bending over to reach their toes.

Go see Dr Kelman and you'll be very impressed.

PS - Another plus... They even validate your parking which saved me $3.

They always take good care of me. Appointments are usually on time. I have problems with my feet and it is important to me that I can usually get in when I need to. I have been going to Dr Feldman for many years.
