First time being seen by a foot doctor. I enjoyed the experience, even though I was nervous about getting a recommended procedure. Dr. Karimi was very attentive and thorough with my chief complaints. I would recommend his services to my colleagues.

January 29, 2024Chita A.Verified patient
I’ve never seen to a podiatrist for an ingrown nail, but Dr Karimi made me feel very comfortable. I was very nervous and in so much pain, he was very understanding and went straight to helping me feel better. If it wasn’t for him, I’d still be in excruciating and unbearable pain.

Really happy that my painful ingrown toenails were addressed on my first visit. They are already feeling so much better. The procedure did not hurt at all even though I was pretty nervous about it at the start. I would high recommend this doctor for any foot challenges you might have!

Left the appointment feeling well taken care of, with greatly reduced pain and with new knowledge about my condition and how to take care of myself (stretching and excercise) to ensure pain free future.
