It was amazing to collaborate with a doctor who hears you, cares and wants to do what’s best for you. She’s extremely knowledgeable, very helpful and kind. She went through everything thoroughly. She answered all my questions. It was an amazing experience. It’s a relief to know I do not need my ankle operated on. We can treat my issues. I can still hike, weightlift, and box.

Dr. Hashemi is a wonderful doctor! I would highly recommend her to anyone who injured their foot or ankle. I had a foot injury and saw many doctors who couldn’t figure out what was going on but once I found Dr. Hashemi she was able to diagnose me right away and get me back up on my feet within 3 months! Amazing doctor!
