Seong M Yoo, DPM

What can I say? There’s nothing about this doctor that isn’t the most positive experience. I’ve been seeing him for several years now. Other medical issues were causing even more pain. Finally Dr. Yoo performed surgery to both feet. It took a while and he kept telling me to be patient but I thought I’d never experience relief. Finally at some point, and it crept up on me, but one day I noticed my feet hadn’t given me any big trouble in quite some time. In fact it occurred to me my last treatment of any kind was almost a year ago before a trip to NY in which I received one injection to my right foot only. I’ve been to many doctors that couldn’t offer relief of other medical issues. I know it’s your job but allow me to thank you for doing your job WELL! And for ALWAYS doing it with a smile and the best personality ever. This man actually had me laughing once while sticking a needle in my foot. If ya have to be in pain, ya may as well laugh while doing it. Dr. Yoo is an amazingly humble doctor that REALLY cares about his patients above all. Thank you again Doc. Yoo!

if you need a foot doctor, this is the guy you need to go to! he makes an embarrassing situation very comfortable and easy. he is super accommodating and personable. he was able to quickly assess and fix my issue. no need to do any further research, this is the foot doc you should go to!

I’ve been to several podiatrists in the Santa Monica/​West LA area.
One podiatrist was nice but his office manager always messed up my insurance/​billing! She was a (much older) woman so I tried to cut her some slack but after 3 times (and one *repeated* bill that was sent to collection – IN ERROR)– I had to find someone else. It wasn’t worth the headache.
I also seemed to be his only patient under 75.
Not a big deal – I just felt like my painful corn, etc. issues were not given as much attention as perhaps the concerns of his other patients.
Dr. Yoo was super attentive and listened my questions/​concerns thoroughly.
He’s a doctor you can relate to while also knowing his stuff!
And I’ve never had an insurance/​billing problem!

Dr. Yoo is excellent. His personable nature combined with his years of experience and expertise makes you feel extremely comfortable. He a consummate professional but at the same time he has a genuine concern with his patients that is rare to find.
Dr. Yoo understands that a procedure can often be stressful, he mediates this thru top notch customer service. An example of this service is that he had a driver pick me up from my apartment in Woodland Hills, and drive me all the way down to Ocean Ave in Santa Monica (the office by the way is prime real estate with a gorgeous view of the Ocean and Santa Monica Pier). After the painless procedure the driver drove me back up the 405 and to my apartment.
Professional service. Customer care. A quality DPM.
