He saw me very quickly. Dr. Ahn explained my bunion issues in a simple manner, and he was nice and professional. I would definitely recommend his office.

First things first, the front office staff are so sweet and pleasant!
Dr. Ahn has really good bedside manner. He was able to diagnose my issue and get me started with some customized orthotics. I need to go back for surgery to permanently fix my issue but he never made me feel pressured to do so.

I like the doctor a lot but I absolutely despise Zocdoc.
You are harassing me with e-mails and texts way too much.
I don't want anymore reminders or recommendations for dentist, primary care physicians and the like.
This is more than obtrusive.
More than 1 year agoJames D S.Verified patient
I scheduled my appointment through ZocDoc and it.was quick.and easy. The doctor's office was conveniently located and had off-street.parking. The doctor saw me right away and he was pleasant, professional,and went into detail.concerning my condition. X-Ray on.site. His assistant was.great and.put.me at.ease.
October 10, 2019Ada B.Verified patient
Dr Ahn was great - I felt like he and his staff took the time to understand my problem and came up with actual solutions. Plus, he was able to alleviate my plastic that day, staying after his office closed to do a procedure.

My wife and I had a very pleasant interview with Dr. Ahn. He gave us a complete rundown on the treatment using my feet and the x-rays thereof to illustrate the exact procedure. He was very careful to let us know that he did not take medicare and gave us specific prices for what we chose to do.

More than 1 year agoSam A.Verified patient
He was very kind during the appointment, understanding my fears of the situation. He was thorough, intelligent and most important of all - quick (as quick as one can be while being thorough and doing minor foot surgery). Our follow up appointments were great, he helped me to get orthotics for my feet and my nail healed perfectly. No issues over a year later and I am so thankful I went through the process of having my ingrown toenail removed.
April 19, 2018Miranda R.Verified patient
Was definitely spot on in how to fix my issues. No wait time, Very professional and office staff was great too. Would recommend him for sure.

January 10, 2018Arla P.Verified patient
Dr Ahn was great! He spent at least an hour with me...answered all my questions, explained the process and options and was engaged in all aspects of my case (vs just delegating to his nurses). He was personable snd professional...and frankly he inspired my confidence.
July 29, 2017Debra B.Verified patient
Dr. TJ Ann spent a great deal of time with me. He took the time to find the cause of my problem and then explained all of my options. I had therapy that first visit.
June 18, 2017Susan F.Verified patient
Dr Ahn and his staff were extremely nice. We were over 20 minutes late due to construction and they were extremely understandable. Dr. Ahn took his time and explained my foot condition and my options. He is extremely knowledgeable of the foot and I'm scheduled to fix my aching feet.
June 10, 2017Marquita C.Verified patient
It was a pleasure meeting with Dr. Ahn this morning because I was seen by him right away and he spent an abundance of time with me thoroughly discussing my diagnosis and the various types of treatment available. Not only that, he listened to my questions and took the time to walk me through the answer. Dr. Ahn was knowledgeable, and it was a terrific overall experience. I will definitely be visiting him in the future should any other issues with my feet arise.
March 4, 2017Joseph S.Verified patient
Dr. Ahn is great. He's very thorough and patient. He addressed all my concerns and ensured I left his office with enough knowledge to make an informed decision. He didn't push unnecessary procedures, but recommended treatment that will provide long-term benefit. I appreciate that.
