Patient Reviews of University Foot and Ankle Institute

Dr. Franson and staff are all very professional, very knowledgeable and very nice. I have had a few issues with my foot and Dr. Franson has helped me through with surgery repair and overseeing the healing process and onto physical therapy. Plus they're real good with appointment times. Thank You Dr. Franson and Staff for keeping me walking in the right direction, Debbie Love

I actually love that Dr Redkar is direct. After dealing with Gandomani, I welcome prompt treatment, clear direction of treatment, all the small things like making sure I have the handicap placard.

I wasn't even mad when she took my flip flop and slapped the bottom of my foot. Now it hurt like hell but she drove her point home of why those shoes weren't healthy for my foot and it made me buy ONE pair of danskos.

Im eager to be able to walk without pain again. Ive been in pain since May 2019

I love this office !!! Dr..Bob is amazing and really helped me with a swollen ankle ! I was so happy o didn't need surgery and was badly in need of orthopedic due to super high arch with was causing me to put pressure on outer ankle joint . He recommended certain shoes (sad to say not all orthopedic flip flops or expensive nursing clogs are good for everyone . ) office is clean and staff is very nice . Office is very efficient and they have an X-ray machine in office as well as an mri ! This is the place to go if you have any foot issues !

I am giving a honest review of my experience with Dr. Bavarian. And staff, I went there for plantar fasciitis in severe pain, Dr Bavarian was very communicative and extremely compassionate in helping to treat me, the staff was very polite and helpful, I would recommend this facility to anyone who is in need of a podiatrist, I have done physical therapy and home treatments, am waiting on my orthodic insoles, I will update my review when I receive them,

Appointments could be better coordinated between the offices especially when dealing with Kevin the orthodics and Brace guy. Seems the Santa Monica office doesn't really know his schedule when things are scheduled through the other office. I had to drive there twice because of their scheduling issues with Kevin. But otherwise, all is great.

Visit was fine AGAIN the calls the day before the visit to remind me of an appointment are ridiculous!! Especially after answering a phone call on the previous day (2 days before appt), where you are asked to CONFIRM I always confirm &!then get another reminder the day before the appointment Too many reminders!! One call is sufficient if a person had confirmed, the should not be called again to confirm!!
