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.

Amputation needed

Because of this doctors unwillingness to care for her errors, I needed an amputation on what was a healthy foot and lower leg.

So glad I found her!
From the first call everyone was kind and helpful, whether on the phone or in person. Dr. Tavakoli is warm and friendly and put me at ease. She was open to all my questions and the research I'd done before going in, bring her extensive knowledge and experience to find the best solution for me. I never felt rushed or treated like a number. I have not had a single issue in recovery following fusion surgery and have already shared her number with people who ask about my surgery boot and have their own issues. Even when I had trouble with insurance, her office staff stepped in on my behalf to solve the problem. They really went above and beyond and I do not hesitate to give Dr. T my highest recommendation.

Wonderful Experience!
I am currently in my third week of recovery after having foot surgery. I originally went in thinking I would have a traditional Lapiplasty Bunion Correction Surgery, but after Dr. Tavakoli examined my foot she gave me a much more customized approach, which turned out to be even less expensive in the end. I have had very minimal pain throughout the recovery process. I can't imagine anyone else doing my surgery besides Dr. Tavakoli.

Dr Tavakoli Ruined My Foot!
Dr. Tavakoli ruined my foot! She did a Lapiplasty procedure to “correct the bunion once and for all,” along with straightening of my hammertoe. I was told that recovery would be easy/quick. It was NOT!! I have never been in so much pain! The severe swelling did not subside for over 3 months, and only enough for me to wear a WIDE gym shoe. Dr T did not position my bones correctly; my bones at ball of my foot were protruding and I could not walk barefoot without pain. She kept telling me to “give it more time.” After 5 months she did a corrective procedure (at MY expense) but that has not improved anything. My bunion was not corrected, big toe will not move, hammertoe is still too long and does not bend, and I have constant pain/stiffness! I went to another surgeon to have the hardware removed due to pain. Three surgeries later and my foot is worse than before I started with Dr. T. Please BEWARE!!! In my opinion, Dr T is a terrible surgeon and is not honest, ethical.

I have had 3 appointments with Dr Tavakoli. All 3 the wait time was up to an hour. Her office environment is extremely stressful, lots of people(her staff) in and out with no communication. Waiting room full(she definitely over books way to many patients) With the pandemic having so much people in the waiting room adds to the stress. Staff are aloof and not engaging. Although Dr Tavakoli is very personable, she spends at most 5-10 minutes with you. I find this unacceptable. Very rushed and any questions are brushed a side. I do NOT recommend her and her office as a podiatrist. I regret using het for my fractured foot and won’t be back. It is just too stressful and disorganized.

I am diabetic and have a lot of trouble with my feet. Dr. Tavakoli has been great. She has performed 3 surgeries the last one I had to have a toe removed. She is so caring and if possible, she made the entire process bearable. I will never use another podiatrist.

She did Lapiplasty in December. Next visit she told me she was afraid she had overcorrected it...she had. My toe now points the wrong direction. She said I would need another surgery to correct it. Now she wants to charge me for the surgery to repair what she did wrong. Do not go to her. Horrible.

I went to Dr. Tavakoli for second opinion for my daughter who had sever foot ankle problems witch was missed by another doctor by almost a year. Dr. Tavakoli diagnosed her problems and recommended surgery and operated on her. Dr. Tavakoli and her team did a great job and now my daughter finally is able to walk and have a normal life, Also my wife and myself are patients of Dr. Tavakoli and she has been great help to our family. I strongly recommend Dr. Tavakoli.

Don't go by her diagnostic, look for a 2nd opinion. She missed my lisfranc injury for 5 months. She did surgery on Dec 2016. I am almost disabled, after 9 months. I haven't been able to walk for 1 year. Surgery failed, but she doesn't want to address it, instead she made me spent thousands of $ in physical therapy, nerve test, MRI's, CT scans and X-rays. My life keeps deteriorating, I am having a 2nd surgery at UT Southwestern, going in overweight, with knees and hips issues for sitting allday
