Patient Reviews of University Foot and Ankle Institute

Dr. Saeedi is awesome! He guided me through treatment that healed an open wound on the bottom of my foot. He's kind, professional and very friendly. He knows his stuff and was very proactive in getting me healed. The office staff is also proactive in setting up appointments and referrals. They are also friendly and kind. I actually look forward to going to their office, even in the middle of this pandemic.Jacob Fletcher

The staff seem very nice but due to covid definitely made it harder No one answered the phone to let me into the office or at least acknowledge that I was there for my appointment. After waiting 5 minutes without anyone picking up or answering I called the main office so they could let them know I was waiting outside After 15 minutes of not hearing anything a patient left and I went in to make sure they knew I was there. Other than that part, everyone was nice and efficient

I have been back to physical therapy now for a couple of weeks. Lydia has been working with me on my balance and mobility in my ankles and toes. She is amazing and really knows her stuff. She encourages me to do better but never forces me to do more than I can handle. My only complaint is that she isn't in the office enough. It is much harder to get an appointment with her that works with my work schedule. I used to see her first thing in the morning before heading to work. Now she is only in the office 3 days a week and in the afternoon and evenings. I've been going after work but a lot of times my feet are in so much pain that I can't do much of the strengthening and balance exercises. I hope that she is back full time real soon!

I have had flat feet and problems related with this issue for decades. But no one ever looked into the problem head-on as did Dr. Sherdad Saeedi. No one in 3 decades.Off the bat, first encounter, he showed me through x-rays what exactly the issues are and the ways to treat pain related to flat-footedness. #1 was to get specific orthotics.It worked the first day! I hit the courts the first day & whoa: what a relief.Plan to get another pair asap.And continue consulting with the good Doc now on.I might even accompany him for his NGO to help children with Orthopedic problems in areas he provides free services.He is that impressive.robin Gangopadhya, La Crescenta, CA

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.
