I have been going to see Dr. Samandaji for many years. Simply put, he is the best. I would trust him for anything related to the foot, from an exam or consultation to a surgical procedure. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable, but he is able to explain medical issues in a way that non-medical persons can understand. read more

I first met Dr. Sanandaji about 14 years ago when I went in for orthotics. I have super flat feet, which can cause all kinds of body aches and problems if not attended to. Dr. Sam was made customized orthotics which lasted many years, until I developed a neuroma. I went in and he explained to me exactly what was going on and how to solve the problem, which worked beautifully until I went skiing this past season and developed pain in my metatarsal which was definitely confounding. A visit to see the good doctor and instantly all was explained (sesamoiditis) and options for a cure were given and now I'm back in action. Dr. Sam is patient, kind and caring. He's all about the patient, their comfort, their options, and having them be part of the solution. He cares, his staff is terrific and I can't recommend him highly enough. read more

I'm really enjoying my visits to Dr. Sanandaji and so far everything has been exceptional. read more

Foot and Ankle Care Center, Inc.: Sam Sanandaji, DPM - My feet. - Podiatrists Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Dr. Sam Sanandaji (DPM) is an excellent podiatrist, and I highly recommend him. From the moment I walked into his office, I felt comfortable and cared for. Dr. Sanandaji listened attentively to my concerns, explained my condition and treatment options in a way that was easy to understand and answered all of my questions thoroughly. He was able to diagnose my condition and I am making excellent progress at recovery. He is smart and caring. I couldn't be more impressed. read more

Dr. Sam is the absolute best. Not only does he provide excellent foot care, but he goes above and beyond for his patients, spending the time needed to hear our concerns, explaining things clearly (and repeating care instructions as many times as needed), and never rushing anyone out to get to someone else. He will usually accommodate you same day for an emergency, too. So many other doctors spend two seconds with you, send you on your way, and collect their fee. Not Dr. Sam! As an athlete, I depend on healthy feet, and I wouldn't trust anyone else with their care. read more

Dr. Sanandaji treated my concerns with thoughtfulness and addressed my pain with care and a game plan. After trying several doctors, Dr. Sanandaji gets my highest recommendation! read more

First rate Dr. Took care of tricky glass shard imbedded in foot. Excellent bedside manner. Highly recommend.

Top Notch Podiatrist!! Followed him to his new location because of his professionalism and bedside manner.. he makes recommendations, reviews pros and cons and has you make the final decisions. Love that he's not pushy and looks out for your best interest!! He will be my son and my podiatrist for life!! Thanks for taking care of us!! YOU'RE THE BEST! read more

Great doctor. Takes his time and treats the patient. Also he remembers everything from the last appointment so you feel like he cares and taken care of. read more

Great doctor, he really explains everything and genuinely cares. I would highly recommend visiting him.

tl;dr: Every visit begins with a friendly fist bump and ends with a feeling of confidence knowing that you are being taken care of. I would give him more than 5 stars but unfortunately 5 is the highest you can go. I had a toe issue that another podiatrist made me get an MRI for and wanted me to come in for weekly expensive treatment and still had no idea what was wrong. Dr. Sanandaji took one look at my foot and was able tell me what was wrong and exactly how it happened. He told me to follow an inexpensive treatment that cleared up my issue and then got me fitted for custom orthotics that solved my foot issue and also will prevent it from happening again. Because of him, my feet feel the best it has ever felt in my shoes and I owe it all to him. His knowledge and expertise in podiatry is outstanding and his cheerful attitude and respect towards his patients is something you don't get from every doctor. read more

This doctor exudes patience, kindness, and a higher level of knowledge. He has been in this practice area for a long time and it shows. He is always on time for my appointment and genuinely cares about me! Not all doctors have the same bedside manner as he does. I always feel like I am in good hands. Will definitely go back. read more

Dr Sanandaji is one of the most empathetic, caring, thorough & respectful doctors I've ever met! I have been seeing him for 5 months for a stubborn foot condition and also have severe anxiety. He does what he can to calm me down, talk me through my anxiety, all while ensuring I get the care I need. I cannot recommend him enough. I feel really cared for in his hands! read more

My mom's Podiatrist, Dr. Sanandaji is so nice and thorough. We are very happy we found him. The office staff is nice as well. I think I'm switching over too. read more

I love Dr. Sam. He's so kind and thorough. I was having great pain in my ankle and was scheduled to go on a beach vacation in 4 days. His staff got me in quickly and I'm already on the mend. Hopefully, I'll be able to do that snorkeling that I was looking forward to. This is the second time he's come to my rescue after an injury. Last time, I kicked off my big toenail (almost completely) and they got me in right away and he painlessly removed the toenail the rest of the way. My toenail is regrown completely now, perfectly shaped I may add. He's done my ingrown toenail removal too and it never came back. I highly recommend Dr, Sam. read more

I came in with a stubbed toe that ended up to be a fractured toe. Dr Sam was very friendly and was super helpful with answering all my questions. Would definitely recommend! Down side is only street parking is available. read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Sanandaji's for years. I work a job that requires 15+ hours on my feet, and have come in with many complications because of this, and i have never felt rushed, dismissed, or even had to wait long for an appointment. He is gentle and kind, and very knowledgeable at addressing the concerns of his patients. It took awhile to find him, but i would not go with anyone else. Make sure you ask the receptionist for directions because his new office is a little tricky to find. read more

Dr. Sanandaji is the best! I have seen him for the past few years when issues arise with my feet. He is so caring and personable. He really takes his time with his patients, but even so, he doesn't leave you waiting. I've had back pain for years and once I had the custom orthotics in, my back and feet felt so much better. There's 1 hour metered parking on Robertson and a medical building lot across the street. You're in good hands if you're a patient of Dr. Sanandaji. read more

First time I went to see Dr. Sanandaji, I had to wait over hour and a half due to him being in surgery. Today, after twenty minutes of just waiting and no one telling me what's going on, I just walked out. read more

If you're looking for a podiatrist whose name you can pronounce or spell Doctor Sanandaji is not for you. If you are looking for a doctor who can fix your foot problems, look no further. He is caring and highly skilled. If you don't believe me I can send you a picture of my foot. No, that's going too far. But he keeps my 83-year-old feet still plodding ahead. read more

An ABSOLUTELY TALENTED PHYSICIAN. He really listened to me and conquered my pain. I've brought my entire family and have even driven my neighbors to see him. He diagnosed and treated a condition that my previous podiatrist and cousin missed. I wish more people would know how wonderful he is. I've even told people in elevators and on the street about him and his skills. Thank you again, Dr. Sanandaji read more

I have been going to Doctor Sanandaj for almost 3 years now and this guy really cares. Who knows foot pain can be so irritating. Today was my last visit of 2019 in his office. Like always he was patient and gentle. I wish you and your family a great new year and happy holidays. God bless you... read more

Dr. Sanandaji is an answered prayer. He is the ultimate professional, and the kindest of human beings. Me and my whole family have been patients of this extraordinary Doctor for years, and would follow him anywhere. I can't recommend him enough. Not only is he wonderful with every patient, but he has taken extraordinary care of our handicapped child. He performed her surgery, and was there for her, and us, every step of the way. You can't find a better doctor. read more

I've been going to Dr. Sam for a few years. What a great doctor!! This guy really cares. There are so many doctors out there, but not many that care about you. Dr. Sam cares and listens. I can see him tracking properly and listening to what I say. I mostly go to him for ingrown toe nails due to excessive working out. Dr. Sam told me I'm not cutting my nails properly and thats why they were getting ingrown. I'm now cutting my nails better, so I don't have to see him as often. Lately, I've been taking my elderly parents to him (they actually knew him first). He is so good with my father and he never rushes. You can just tell that he is a good doctor. read more

Dr. Sanandaji is very knowledgeable. He gave me the least painful option to taking care of my feet. He is also very gentle and his customer service is the best!! Highly recommended!! read more

Extremely knowledgeable, extremely communicative, excellent bedside manner. Dr. Sanandaji clearly loves his career, or should I say his calling, and wants to help his patients. He's actually out of my network (because I'm a Kaiser member) but I would not go anywhere else read more

I was very fortunate to have found Dr. Sanandaji. I had an infection at the base of my toenail that wouldn't respond to treatment, so the toenail had to be removed. I had had a traumatic experience with a toenail issue when I was a teenager and was petrified to go through another procedure. Dr. Sanandaji and Christina were SO calming and understanding of my fear and terror. Dr. Sanandaji has a wonderful bedside manner and a lovely sense of humor. Christina was wonderfully responsive every time I called the office or came in for a visit. I cannot recommend this "team" strongly enough!!! read more

Dr. Sanandaji is not only a consummate professional but also a kind and personable man who cares deeply about his patients. He listens carefully to your issues and invokes trust by not suggesting radical treatments when other, less invasive ones will serve the healing process. He also takes the time to explain everything, which is greatly appreciated! read more

Dr. Sanandaji is not only an excellent podiatrist he is very compassionate and he truly cares about his patients. My physician referred me so I already knew he was one of the best. I highly recommend Dr. Sanandaji. read more

I've been dealing with an annoying and resistant foot problem for about five years now. I've visited multiple doctors in three different specialties to finally solve my problem, with no avail...until Dr. sanadaji. He put in the time and effort to make sure that my problem was finally solved. He considered all possible avenues and explained in great detail why he chose/didn't choose each type of treatment. He is one of a kind and I happily recommend! read more

He is the most caring and patient Podiatrist I know. He's very gentle and has a great demeanor. He takes his time with each patient making sure they are comfortable. If scheduling is a problem or you have an urgent need, he will fit you in even if you have to wait a few extra minutes. He will explain everything step-by-step to you while giving you alternatives to the different methods he could use to obtain the same end result. It will be left up to you to select a method of choice. He will answer all of your questions. I have no complaints with regard to his ability to perform. I had foot surgery a week ago and it went very well, he spoke to me before the surgery to make sure I was at ease and to answer any last minute questions. I feel very comfortable around him and highly recommend that you give him a call. read more

Dr. Sanandaji is a wonderful, caring doctor. Highly competent. Knew how to fix my foot issue right away. Was thankful the office accepted my insurance and that they had free parking in the back. The doctor spent a lot of time with me and made me feel cared for and not just rushed in and out like other offices. If you are looking for a podiatrist, look no further. Would highly recommend without reservation. read more

Dr. Sanandaji is fantastic! I was referred to him by a friend for orthotics a few years ago. He has amazing bedside manner and spent time listening to and answering my questions. I didn't feel rushed and felt I had his undivided attention. Recently, I tore a muscle in my calf and am under his care again. He has made whole ordeal a lot less traumatic and I'm on my way to a speedy recovery - and to running again soon. Highly recommend him and his staff! read more

After a lifetime trying to find a solution to shoes that never fit right and thousand of dollars spent on insoles and doctor, including the top ranked orthopedic specialists visits,Dr, Sanandaji came up with a solution to fix my problem. I can't thank him enough. read more

I was referred to Dr. Sanandaji to get a second opinion on my heel and he was so patient and so kind! Spent 2 hours with me pinning down my exact diagnosis (which ended up being a number of things) and the treatment plan. He even took the time to call the radiologist to ensure the MRI was read correctly and the treatment plan aligned with it. After only 1 visit and laser treatment to reduce swelling (which he gave the first treatment as complimentary), my pain went from a 10++ and not being able to put any weight on my heel to a 1 or nonexistent and being able to easily walk in a boot! Dr. Sanandaji is truly a podiatrist God that has extreme care, kindness and patience for his patients. His office as well is extremely professional and accommodating and fit me in that very same day! Fantastic office and doctor! I'm so relieved I finally found a doctor who can heal me as now I will be able to not only walk, but dance at my wedding! read more

Dr. Sam is a great doctor. He takes the time to get to know you and puts you at ease before the exam or procedure. Dr. Sam's the office staff is also friendly and accommodating. If you are in the LA area and need a foot doctor, look no further. read more

This review is waaay overdue. Dr. Sam is phenomenal! If you're doing your due diligence on Yelp for an ortho/foot/ankle doc you can stop now. He's excellent. Great diagnostician, super calm and gentle as previous reviewers have mentioned, explains what is going on with your body and why and gives straight forward treatment plans. I'm really grateful that I found him, wish I had known about him sooner. His office is cool too, everyone is friendly and organized. Honestly my only issue is that I wish he could just be my doctor for everything. Call him!! read more

Dr. Sanandaji is awesome -- both extremely knowledgeable and armed with a great, comforting disposition. As a long time runner, my ongoing achilles tendon issue was both painful and stressful. Was so worried running had become a thing of the past. Dr. Sam put me at ease, reassured me, informed me of all options, then recommended a simple regimen of icing and stretching, no up-sell. After two sessions, I've just taken my first run in 3 months. Felt great. While podiatry issues might not be "life threatening," for someone who's physically active they can feel like the end of the world. Dr. Sam gets that. Would recommend him to anyone. read more

I highly recommend Dr Sam! I had two bunion surgeries (lapiplasty) with him last year. First one in August and second in November 2021. I'm very happy with my experience and with my results! Dr Sam is very knowledgeable, attentive, and has great bedside manners. He answered all my questions about the surgery and recovery and made sure my experience was smooth from start to finish. His admin, Christina, was very helpful as well! She was able to schedule the surgery when I needed and helped sort out the insurance pre-approval by scheduling a peer to peer with Dr Sam. I couldn't be happier now that both surgeries are behind me and my feet are looking and feeling great. Thanks again, Dr Sam and Christina! read more

Dr. Sanandaji gave me options other than surgery. I am an athlete and surgery would be a very big set back for me. Dr. Sanandaji saw me within 1 week of my calling for an appointment and helped diagnose the cause of my problem, instead of treating the symptoms. He offered me an alternative to surgery and has given me new hope for recovery. I would strongly recommend Dr. Sanandaji!!! read more
