The helpfulness of the whole staff to me, as a traveler from the other side of the nation. The doctor and his office staff listened well and clearly communicated the necessary means to alleviate my pain. The procedure was fast and pain-free. I couldn't be happier with thr outcome.

Dr Yoo was fantastic! I made me feel at ease and explained everything very clearly. The front desk was friendly and helpful also. They seem to really care about patients first and foremost.
August 1, 2024Tiffany W.Verified patient
Dr. Yoo was awesome. First you walk in and the woman at the front desk - I feel so bad I forgot her name at the moment - is a gem. Very sweet and helpful. I didn't even sit down in the waiting room, I was just ushered into a room (I was probably the 2nd appointment of the day, so there's that). Dr. Yoo was very kind, explained everything very thoroughly and gave me a lot of options to help with the issues I was having.
June 3, 2024Jennifer S.Verified patient
Friendly , knowledgable , easy to talk to.
April 12, 2024Initials hidden
We experienced warm, supportive office personnel and medical services. Many people agonize with physical pain who are unaware of foot related causes. Dr.Yoo gave sound evidence-based medical care. He took time to perform & explain every procedure clearly. The practitioner conveniently offers 2 locations and made sure our next appointments were scheduled closer to home. I wish the previous surgeon had recommended a podiatry & medi-pedi follow-up with Dr. Yoo; maybe the fall and shoulder fracture caused by foot surgery would have been prevented. Offering highest reccommedations, with gratitude!

Best podiatrist I have been to. Was seen in a timely manner. Asked about my condition and need. Gave great advise on how to treat my foot condition. Gave me prescription for sandals and shoes to help me walk better. Follow up action plan provided.
March 28, 2023Alfred S.Verified patient
So helpful and clear!!! The reviews prior to mine were all spot on and accurate. Dr pointed out easy fixes and demonstrated exactly what was going wrong with my toe/foot - clean, clear, exceptional appointment!!!! Front desk woman was also lovely and called me to confirm and schedule. 100/10!!
December 14, 2022Catherine M.Verified patient
Dr. Ki-Hyuk Yoo was very informative and listened to my concerns I have been having issues with ingrown toenails for a while now but it had gotten very painful and tender. He was able to go in there and remove them and put cold spray so I wouldn't feel that much pain. He was very sweet and the office felt very homey. If I have any more issues I will definitely be returning to him.
October 20, 2022Kemberly R.Verified patient

January 21, 2022Laura G.Verified patient
Dr Yoo quickly diagnosed my issue and thoroughly explained the root cause, what to do for immediate treatment, and how to treat long term. I went to another podiatrist six months prior for the same issue and Dr Yoo did a much better job of quickly diagnosing and thoroughly explaining what was going on. Highly recommend!

Dr. Yoo was very knowledgeable. He quickly diagnosed my problem and offered actions to rectify the issue. He was very articulate and easy to understand exactly what was causing my pain. Will have to see in time if pain goes away, but from a diagnostic perspective, couldn’t be any better. Highly recommend.
January 6, 2022Maria S.Verified patient
No-nonsense professional care.
December 13, 2021Samuel B.Verified patient
Dr Yoo was highly competent & had a GREAT bedside manner! He diagnosed my foot ailment very quickly & gave me an extensive list of treatment options! His appointment secretary was also very helpful & absolutely delightful! I highly recommend this practice!
November 10, 2021Ellenmarie G.Verified patient
Dr. Yoo is an excellent podiatrist. I booked a last minute appointment with him after injuring my toe and he was so knowledgable and helpful to ease my concerns and lend me his expertise. He communicates clearly and does not make you feel rushed throughout the process (this was after going to a podiatrist last year who was the exact opposite). His front desk staff is also incredibly polite and hospitable. I would go to him 10x over.
