My husband had three partially torn ligaments and ankle instability. He's an athlete and he was always rolling his ankle, which caused chronic pain when walking. We were very blessed to find Dr. Joseph. He verified his findings with an MRI and got my husband into surgery quickly. The surgery went very well, and my husband followed his recovery instructions to the letter for a very successful outcome. He's walking now pain-free and can't believe how many years he suffered when all he needed was Dr. Joseph and his skills. We highly recommend him and hope you will find the same success. His assistant Josh is also very helpful and responsive to text messages. Both Dr. Joseph and Josh have good communication skills and are caring people read more

Robert Joseph, DPM - Stitching - Podiatrists Near Me - Tustin, California

Finding a doctor who is both skilled and compassionate can be incredibly difficult, but I struck gold with Dr. Joseph! From the moment I met him, I knew I was in good hands. He has a wonderful bedside manner - kind, fun, and genuinely caring. He took the time to thoroughly explain my ankle stabilization and toe surgery, answering all my questions patiently and honestly. But what truly sets him apart is his dedication to going above and beyond for his patients. He truly has your back! For example, knowing I was recovering at home and couldn't celebrate my birthday, he actually ordered a special dinner for my husband and me! It was such a thoughtful and unexpected gesture. When the surgery center closest to me, Advanced Surgical Center of Beverly Hills (which is the absolute worst surgery center in Los Angeles - avoid at all cost!) screwed up big time with my insurance and caused my mental duress and a panic attack minutes before my surgery, Dr. Joseph stood up for me without hesitation and then cancelled all of his surgeries there for a month. He puts patients over everything! Thanks to his skill and care, my recovery has been smooth and successful. I have no scar at all on my toe, and my ankle is healing nicely and will be minimal scaring - he's that good! I can't recommend Dr. Joseph highly enough. His staff is amazing too! So kind, cool, and helpful! If you're looking for a podiatrist who is not only an expert in his field but also a truly wonderful person, look no further! read more

Robert Joseph, DPM - Podiatrists Near Me - Tustin, California

My experience with Dr. Joseph was incredible. From the consultation to a secondary viewing of my MRI it was clear that my healing was his priority. He took the time to make me comfortable with every step of the process and once the day of surgery came I felt very prepared. The surgery itself was quick and seamless, I could not have asked for a better first surgery experience. As I went through the healing process he ensured I had everything I would need to do so in relative comfort. My ankle feels stronger than ever and I couldn't be more grateful. Thank you Dr. Joseph and the rest of your team!! read more

Dr Robert Joseph is the best. His office got me in right away. My Dr for life. I just wish i would have actually seen him sooner because i could have avoided surgery. Will forever be grateful to him for my surgery I appreciate that he spoke to me with honesty, upfront, and step by step how the surgery was going to be. read more

Dr. Joseph performed my ankle stabilization and PRP treatment with exceptional skill. The office staff were professional, courteous, and responsive to any questions and concerns. Dr. Joseph is an outstanding physician who treats patients with a personal touch and remarkable care. His expertise and dedication were instrumental in resolving my ankle issues. He is truly exemplary in his field. read more

All these reviews are accurate. Dr. Joseph has an excellent bedside manner, and I feel confident with the diagnosis/treatment going forward. I tend to leave ailments untreated with a crazy idea that they will eventually go away. This comes from subpar doctors in the past. Dr. Joseph answered my questions thoroughly and convincingly, which showed his 25+ years of experience. This practice checks all the boxes for great quality of care. I would highly recommend it to family! read more

Amazing podiatrist. He has an excellent bedside manner and is very knowledgeable. I recently had an Ankle Stabilization Surgery that he performed and he helped me every single step of the way and explained everything in detail so I would know exactly what to expect and what the aftercare was going to be like. I'd go to him again in a heartbeat for anything foot related. He isn't even in my area anymore but I willingly drive over an hour for each visit just because I trust him. You're in good hands with Doctor Joseph. read more

This is honestly one of the best doctors office experiences I've ever had. My family is prone to ingrown toenails and infections and this time around 2 rounds of keflex weren't doing enough. I found Dr. Joseph on Zocdoc and saw that he was a preferred provider for my ppo. He helped me navigate the hellscape that is workplace insurance and made sure I could get my treatment covered by insurance! He got me in quick for a surgery to fix my toe and made sure I had something to take care of the pain afterwards. He is knowledgeable, quickwitted, and will give you a laugh about the situation while he explains everything he will do to help get you your spring in your step again. I wish my family found him sooner and that my brother would have been as lucky as I am to have this guy treat me! He also helped me trim my toenails, so now I know how to do that better myself! read more

I had scheduled two surgeries close together a robotic hernia surgery two weeks before the joint replacement surgery in my foot. two weeks after my foot surgery the scar on my foot surgery was a small line barely visible, at four weeks the scars from my robotic hernia surgery were puffy and ugly. If the outside reflects on how he did on the inside he is an amazing surgeon, And from how the foot feels. He is. read more

I have had 2 surgeries with Dr. Joseph. He knows immediately what is going on with your feet. In 2017 when I first went to Dr. Joseph he was able to assess that my drop foot was happening due to lumbar back issues. He didn't know my history with back surgeries so immediately I was impressed. 2 years later I rolled my ankle and Dr. Joseph fixed me again. I no longer experienced any of the pre surgery pain. Dr. Joseph is very personable and really looks to do what works best for his patients. In addition to caring for his patients, he is absolutely great to his staff. I got a sense of loyalty and gratitude from his staff towards Dr. Joseph. read more

Dr. Robert Joseph is unlike any doctor I've seen before. His ability to heal without the bullshit is unmatched. Upon arrival I was nervous to hear what the damage was but Dr. Joseph came in going a million miles a minute. We talked about his life, how he got to where he is and his thousand other projects he has going on. When it came time for diagnosis and procedure he switched crazies and became a "take no shit" practitioner. It felt good to know he had my back even with others in his field. He has a humans before money approach. Thanks Doc! read more

Dr. Joseph has now done two of my feet surgeries. Repairing my ankle ligaments in both and also PRP injections into my heels for severe planters fasciitis. The timely manner that he was able to get me in and give me the level of care that he did, was so appreciative. He was so professional and thorough and made me feel very taken care of. I love his outgoing personality and positive attitude. I would highly refer him to any of my friends and family. He was a blessing! read more

A plate fell on my foot. Thought nothing of it. Had 2 sets of X-rays with two different podiatrist with no answers besides rest and ice. Walked into DR ROBERT JOSEPH's Costa Mesa office after finding his amazing reviews in Beverly Hills, He was able to diagnose me and get me walking again( running too). Course he sent for for an MRI to confirm his findings and was in surgery ,and now I'm at full recovery. To the other doctors.... he's the BEST. Thank you Dr Joseph and by the way you and your office are best. Highly recommend Dr. Joseph to everyone. read more

Dr. Joseph was fantastic throughout all phases of my operations i.e. left and right toe operations. He also made the follow up examinations something to look forward to. I recommend him highly!!!! read more

Robert Joseph, DPM - Podiatrists Near Me - Tustin, California

Dr. Joseph is seriously my favorite doctor that I have ever seen. I have a fear of doctors and he was so caring and compassionate. He explained my procedure clearly and made sure I understood. My husband actually had seen Dr. Joseph first for a work injury. I liked how he was with my husband so I booked an appointment. I had been walking around in pain for a year because I was scared to see a doctor. I am happy to report my foot feels great and I didnt think it was possible. Thanks Dr. Joseph. read more

Dr. Joseph fixed my ankle instability with a minimally invasive surgery. I was only off of my feet for 10 days, and then was able to walk with a boot for the next couple weeks. I was fully recovered in only a month and a half after surgery... and I probably could have started being active sooner, but I was being cautious. I am now playing basketball, hiking, and going to the gym just like I was before surgery. Dr Joseph is very caring and is a man of his word. I looked forward to my office visits with his nice staff and his positive attitude. Would definitely recommend going to see him!! read more

I made an appointment with Dr. Joseph because I was having foot problems and needed to see a podiatrist close to my work. I ended up having to have a basic surgery to correct the issue, and so far I am happy with the results. Though they run a busy practice, the doctor and his team were able to be flexible with my rather inflexible work schedule, and were efficient getting me in and out of the office on time. Dr. Joseph definitely has a quirky and energetic personality that can be surprising at first, but after a few minutes I appreciated his friendliness and concern for his patients. read more

I'd be very careful going to Dr. Joseph. He is very surgery happy! I went in for your basic plantar fasciitis injury and was immediately "diagnosed" with damaged tendons in my ankle. This doctor stated that the tendons were why I was walking and favoring the side of my foot. It didn't occur to him that I favored the side of my foot because of the pain from the plantar fasciitis! I went and saw another podiatrist who prescribed conservative and straightforward treatment that has solved my problem. He didn't even have the equipment needed because he "ran out" that day and told me to buy a brace on Amazon. Seriously? This guy is a HUGE waste of time and money. He comes off as God's gift to medicine but is short on using the scientific method in his ridiculously wrong diagnoses. He also tries to pedal his farmed-out CBD oils and seems more interested in collecting a check than actually practicing healing. People like him give good doctors a lousy reputation; what a shame. Finally, the office shown here isn't even his actual office. He's a nomad doctor that roams cities for money. I should have looked at reviews where he practices. His office also up-charges when you get your bill via a service fee he passes on to his customers. I'd give no stars if I could. I've replaced this clown with a far more reputable doctor that helped solve my foot issue. Follow up: My insurance provided coverage less a copy that I couldn't pay at their office because nobody will accept payment. They said I could pay my balance with a card, but with a surcharge because they can't process payments themselves. How does a "professional" operate without the ability to accept payment?! I mailed them a check circa 1950 style and the idiots keep calling me for payment. I told them they can look forward to getting my check in the snail mail. Greedy morons. read more

Dr. Joseph is a miracle worker. He treated me ten years ago and had saved me from so much pain I was experiencing at the time and now he is my husband's doctor. My husband had been suffering for almost eight months, had been seen by two specialists who had both misdiagnosed his problem, was pressured to resign from his job due to his inability to meet the physical demands of his job and was starting to feel very depressed and hopeless until I was able to reconnect with Dr. Joseph and took my husband to see him. Dr. Joseph took one look at his foot and ankle and knew exactly what needed to be done. He performed a very successful surgery and my husband is now on his way to a full recovery. I can not thank Dr. Joseph enough. I highly recommend him. He is excellent in his area of expertise, his is a compassionate and caring person and extremely professional and efficient. I am grateful to him forever. read more

Absolutely fantastic!! He has great energy and knew exactly what was wrong before I even took my sock off for him to evaluate. He set up my surgery within a week and I didn't have to call or contact anyone for other appointment. Him and his staff took care of setting up all MRI and post op appointments. Definitely recommend him to everyone that has a foot injury. Great patient care and an even better doctor!!! read more

Dr. Joseph did an amazing job of diagnosing my ankle issue. It had no support and I was walking lopsided without knowing for a couple of years lol. He did a minor surgery to fix my ankle and within weeks I was able to walk again with a boot. Thx again read more

Dr. Joseph and his staff are fantastic. Have you ever gone to any doctor appointment and then have to wait, it hasn't been that way with Robert, he has literally greeted me as I've arrived, and in two minutes I am in a room. So amazing to have someone equally engaged and attentive to your time and concerns. His knowledge and skill are true talents, the surgery was relatively easier than I thought, its surgery right, however my ankle felt attached and solid right after the procedure, and that feeling hasn't been there in years since my accident, which is a blessing. If your considering talking with someone about any foot instability, call him. Don't hesitate and wait, you will leave with a plan to correct and in the process you'll meet a really cool human. read more

Where do I begin with Dr. Joseph. This man works magic. He saw me doing box jumps at equinox and told me my left ankle is off. He sat me down right there and showed me that the tendons look like their overstretch and potentially torn. Having played soccer through college and rolled my ankle countless times I wasn't surprised but what was interesting was that I thought nothing significant was wrong til Robert sat me down and brought it to my attention. He suggested I come see him and get some xrays done on my ankle. I took his contact info and then kinda pushed it to the back of my head. Fast-forward a month or two and I end up rolling my ankle and this time it was different cause when it rolled it kinda popped out and got stuck and naturally I freaked out and reached out to Rob. He set up an appointment immediately and after xrays and mri were done it turned out I had blown out nearly all the tendons in my ankle and even had a little piece of bone fractured off and floating in my ankle. He said he would perform a new ankle stabilization procedure that he pioneered and that it would be a short recovery time and fix my ankle completely. He educated me on what exactly was going to be done and assured me it would be a quick and easy fix. He even went to the extent of calling a past client that he performed on and fixed both of that individuals ankles to tell me about the experience and recovery time and basically give me peace of mind, which I thought was really nice of him to do. He worked with my insurance providers to make sure I wasn't gonna come out of pocket too much on the operation and that was also amazing of him to do. When it came down to the actual surgery, it was short and sweet. He works fast and well. Minimal incision and minimal scarring. The recovery time went in stages: first 3 or so days staying off the ankle, keeping it elevated, and taking it easy. After the initial couple of days, I was on crutches and a boot for about a month. After about a month we were able to lose the crutches and just use the boot for about another month. At around week 8 I was able to remove the boot and was back on my feet. Then after 10 weeks I was able to start exercising again but taking it light on the ankle that was done. Its been about 5 months now and my ankle feels as good as new, the tightening and range of motion from the procedure has eased a bit and things feel natural again. Overall, Dr. Joseph made the whole process easy, made me feel like he had my best interest in mind both financially and with my physical health, and his years of experience and skills really reflected in my procedure and recovery. I would highly recommend him for any podiatry needs. Not to mention he's a really funny and good person. read more

Dr. Joseph is the best. When I had my first appointment with him, I was almost completely broken down by pain and the stress of that and the constant threat of being fired from work because of the pain. He knew what was wrong with my ankle immediately. Dr Joseph has the greatest bedside manner of any doctor I have ever been treated by. He motivated, supported and encouraged me through out my recovery. Without that I know I would have declined further into very poor health. Almost instantaneously after the third and final surgery I felt so much better and my pain had significantly declined. Now, 4 months after my surgeries I am so much healthier and completely stronger than I have ever been. It has been 20 years since my pain first started and after doing nearly 4 months of rehab after Dr Joseph fixed my ankle I can perform physically better than when I was playing water polo and participating in the junior Olympics and invitational only water polo tournaments. I'm am so thankful that I was helped by Dr Joseph. read more

Dr. Joseph is awesome. I didn't know why I kept on having foot pain after exercising that sometimes would last weeks. He took one look at my feet and shoes and knew what the problem was. I had been wearing the wrong shoe size (width not length) and I needed orthotics. After a month of wearing orthotics and wearing wider shoes my foot pain has gone away. Thank you Dr. Joseph! read more

Dr. Joseph's knowledge, professionalism, and expertise sets him apart from other medical professionals, but more importantly, he is compassionate, honest, and genuine. In October, I had an injury to my big toe, I broke it and ripped a hole to the bone. An urgent care recommended Dr. Joseph, but by the time I saw him in Costa Mesa my toe was infected due to complications of diabetes. His visits were always a swift in and out and efficient. I had to have surgery to repair the toe and Dr Joseph, assured me, "I got You." He did a fabulous job on my toe, and told me at my follow up that he had saved my toe. He took out the infectious tissue and bone, but I had Osteomyelitis ( a bone infection), which would require an infectious disease specialist. I have since been through hospitals and IV therapy, and the doctors have all said without Dr Joseph's surgery I would have lost my toe. You could not be in better hands, he cares about his patients and I have always felt confident that he has had my best interest at heart. Thank you, Dr. Joseph, I met you at a time of desperation and you provided me with loving care and security that I could not find anywhere. I was fragile and scared and you assured me, you would help me. Not only are you a great doctor, but you are a great guy. It's been 5 weeks, toes healed, 2 more weeks of IV,See you in January, Happy Holidays! I am eternally grateful! read more
