Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I have gone to Dr. Ouzounian for the past 25 years. I have also sent family and friends to him who have complex foot and ankle issues. Dr. Ouzounian is extremely competent, caring and careful. He avoids surgery and only operates if it is the best option. I adore him and his no-nonsense approach. He has a dry sense of humor that some may see as aloof. But trust me, he is warm and gives his 100% undivided attention to the solution of your foot and ankle issues. If you want the BEST run to him

Make sure you have your insurance details ironed out and in writing.Read all of your medical records with him because he may be writing bogus information that will leave you in a hole.Record every conversation with him and his staff. Make him explain your X-Rays to you even if he declares, "they look good".Don't allow him to take too many.Demand to record your surgery.Read my Yelp review for more details. ~EM
