I’ve been struggling with severe plantar fasciitis for a long time, and the pain was excruciating. I couldn’t sleep well, my heels hurt every time I tried to walk, and in the mornings I had to walk on my toes because putting my heels down was unbearable. It was affecting every part of my day.
Then I saw Dr. Urooj, and he was truly the best. What I appreciated most is that he doesn’t believe in putting a temporary “band-aid” on the issue — he focuses on treating the root cause. He recommended Shockwave Treatment, and I’ll be honest, I was skeptical at first. But he explained everything clearly, gave me the facts, and walked me through the entire treatment plan.
I’m so glad I trusted him.
About a week after my third treatment, I suddenly realized while lying in bed that I had no pain. It actually took me a moment to remember how bad things used to be. The results have been incredible, and I’m still improving every day.
If you’re dealing with the kind of pain I had, don’t hesitate to try the Shockwave Treatment. It has genuinely changed my life.
I can only speak for my experience with Dr. Urooj, as he is the only physician I’ve seen at this clinic — but he has been outstanding. Thank you, Dr. Urooj, for giving me my comfort and mobility back.
Excellent care and very thorough!
Dr. Urooj and his team were fantastic. I had a severe ankle sprain and bone pain. They were very attentive, available for questions, and flexible with treatment options. I highly recommend this team! Thank you Dr. Urooj!
I was hesitant to have bunion surgery so I am glad I did! Dr. Urooj was patient and thorough and answered all of my questions and any additional information. Office staff is also amazing! Would highly recommend.
Dr. Urooj was absolutely wonderful! I have delt with ingrown toe nails since I was a kid and this time I couldn’t get it out on my own so I scheduled with him. I was so nervous for the procedure and getting the shots in my toe but he was so caring and gentle it was not nearly as bad as I thought it would be. I seriously left the office so happy and excited to hopefully never have to deal with an ingrown again!
Once again I would like to express my deepest gratitude to Dr. Urooj for the exceptional care he provided in treating my ingrown toenails. For many months, I had been dealing with persistent pain that made it difficult to get through work and daily activities. A few weeks ago, Dr. Urooj corrected one toe, and the relief was immediate. Today, he treated the other toe with the same level of precision, professionalism, and compassion.
His clear explanations, gentle approach, and thorough aftercare instructions gave me complete confidence throughout the process. Thanks to his expertise, I am finally able to walk and work without pain, and my overall quality of life has greatly improved.
I am truly grateful to Dr. Urooj and would highly recommend him to anyone suffering from ingrown toenails or similar foot conditions.
It was a fantastic experience i was very worried and everyone helped me calm down. Dr. Urooj fixed my toe and was very kind and explained everything as it was happening.
Excellent practice. Beautiful building/office space. Staff is pleasant, knowledgeable, and very helpful. Well trained! The place to be when we finally make the time to treat our feet as well as we treat the rest of us. After all, we walk on our feet, not our hands.
Dr. Urooj helps me out a lot with my foot pain and ingrown nails. He's is one of the best doctors I've had and the staff are always helpful when ever I have questions.
Amazing Doctor.
Dr. Urooj is exceptional. He takes the time to explain everything clearly and with genuine kindness. It's incredibly refreshing to meet a doctor who truly cares—not just about the treatment, but about the person. His thoroughness and time makes all the difference. Highly recommend.
They are all fantastic people
It was a good experience very sanitary and they took good care of the situation I would 100% recommend.
Dr. Urooj has listened to my concerns and given me options to consider. After considering my options I thought surgery was the best option and I feel that I am on the road to recovery and hopefully leading a more active life.
I was in a lot of pain when I was referred over from my PC. When I 1st presented my problem, the doctor created a treatment plan that would take a few months and was multiple steps. That's fine as long as I could get relief. I wasn't. It came to the point that I needed an mri. That showed issues that she wasn't aware we were dealing with. Mid treatment she was no longer with the practice so I had to see a new doctor, Kamran D. Farahani. Gave him the run down and he said because of the mri results, we need to take a different approach and what I was currently doing in my treatment, wasn't going to work. I was skeptical because I was now being presented with a different plan for my foot. However, i felt I could trust him, I was desperate for relief and it was less expensive than the previous treatment plan. Followed through with his plan and at home instructions and it worked! Not instantly because treatment takes time but after following all of his instructions, I can now use my foot without being in constant pain. If there's an issue in the future, I would return this practice and I would recommend Dr. Kamran D. Farahani.
Dr. Urooj did an amazing job with my ingrown toenail procedure — fast, painless, and super professional. I felt comfortable the whole time. They do have a lot of patients, so scheduling can take a bit, but it’s 100% worth the wait!
I recently visited Dr. Farahani, for ongoing heel pain due to plantar fasciitis, and I couldn't be more pleased with the care I received. He's incredibly knowledgeable and clearly an expert in his field.
He explained everything clearly and walked me through the process before giving the heel injection. The procedure was quick, smooth, and far less uncomfortable than I expected, thanks to his skill and steady hand. I’ve already noticed an improvement in my pain.
I highly recommend Dr. Farahani to anyone dealing with foot or heel issues. He's professional, and truly cares about his patients' well-being.
Couldn't be happier with Arizona Foot & Ankle Specialists! Pleasant staff & professional care. Dr. Urooj is great, he really takes the time to "walk" you through the steps he's planning for your recovery. I appreciated his progress-dependent approach regarding operation and post-op treatment, he sets reasonable expectations & won't rush the healing process. The experience was much appreciated!
This was probably one of the best experiences I had with a doctors office. There was a wait to be seen, but I understand the domino affect that happens in this setting, so it didn't bother me to wait. When I saw the Dr, he didn't rush my appointment, he took his time to educated me on my issues, and made sure that I understood the treatment plan. The front desk was very nice and I was greeted with a smile.
I’ve had my Bunions since I was 2 years old, and have struggled with them my whole life especially when they became incredibly painful the last few years. I am 21 now and recently had the pleasure of having my first surgery done by Dr. Urooj, who went above and beyond to make this process easy, and comfortable for me even when I was nervous. My results are life changing! Currently recuperating back into everyday life in normal shoes, and planning my surgery for my other foot in December/January.
Thank you Dr.Urooj for helping me increase my quality of life
Great experience. Great front office. Always on time.
I highly recommend Doctor Farahani! He was very knowledgeable, thorough and answered all my questions and needs. He truly dignified me as a person.
Dr.Usman was very polite. He properly and thoroughly performed my procedure along with helpfully explaining everything that was going on. The rest of the staff were also very nice.
Best soc ever. Usman is so sweet.
Enjoyed my first visit with Dr. Farahani! Showed great knowledge and understanding of my needs. He was very personable and I look forward to continue services/treatments with him and his team!
I was very satisfied and grateful for Dr. Farahani's professionalism, knowledge, and pragmatic approach to my foot pain.
Excellent, Friendly and very Professional service and care. I feel so Trusting and comfortable at every visit. So thank your all.
Amazing experience! Dr. Urooj made sure I wasn't in pain, always checking in with me. I definitely recommend coming to him!
Dr. Urooj is the best. Honest and up front. My treatment for my foot/heal pain when I thought it wasn’t to good, turned out to be the best thing all I needed was some time. Looking forward to laser for my ankle.
I would recommend Dr. Urooj to everyone.
Leilani was excellent . An expert in what she does . Thank you.
Dr. Usman has helped my family and I with our foot pains for years now! I started going recently and he helped me right off the bat! Very attentive, and on it with my pains and treatment! Thank you!
Great experience! Dr. Ross was super helpful and supportive throughout my ankle recovery! The best totally recommend!
Upon entering the facility the receptionist at the desk greeted me very friendly and it just kept going. When I checked out the same type of reception, very friendly, very professional, everyone exceeded my expectations coming to that facility.
Very good foot Dr. and staff. Very knowledgeable and helped with a few options for my problem. I had a bad experience with a foot dr. in the past and was hesitant to go back but this Dr. has changed my mindset. Very hopeful to get my problem resolved.
Dr. Urooj, a board certifed podiatric surgean at AZ Foot & Ankle/Avondale, performed surgery on my left foot March 10. It is now March 24, and I am no longer in my surgical walking shoe.
I have resumed my active exercise schedule - pain free! The two weeks I was wearing the surgical shoe was not the big inconvenience I had feared, and i could perform most day to day activities with little difficulty.
Dr. Urooj performs micro surgery, which drastically reduces recovery time. I highly recommend him for any minimally invasive foot surgery.
He and the clinical & office staff at the Avondale office are the best!
Dr. Urooj took care of my ingrown toenail quickly, swiftly, and efficiently! There was minimal pain and he was very professional the entire time. I give this experience a 5/5 and highly recommend finding Dr. Urooj if you have any issues with your foot.
Excellent service and great people.
Got in as a new patient the same day I called to inquire about an appointment. Had the consultation and was able to schedule the procedure needed for the very next day. The Doctor is amazing and super professional. All of the staff are patient and also very curteous in their care and attention of patients.
I am looking forward to my two week follow up and continued foot care with this practice. Thank you!
Office staff is amazing. Took care of me very well.
Dr. Urooj is great! He did an excellent job with my foot reconstructive surgery! The entire staff here is wonderful.
Im here because how happy I was with my surgery beginning to the end. Dr. Urooj did a foot reconstruction on me and was nothing but awesome thru the process, and making me feel comfortable and in making sure I heal properly.
I feel comfortable and confident! Thank you!
Every member of the staff treated us very kindly and that we can appreciate!!
Doctor and back office were very nice. Job well done. Front office staff kind of rude.
I absolutely love this place. Everyone on the staff is amazing. They were friendly and professional. If you need a podiatrist I highly recommend this office.
I needed an appointment asap, the staff understood my needs I received a same day appointment. Dr. Urooj was very thorough in explaining what I needed. I had my procedure the day after a holiday it was quick even though I’m sensitive about needles I was able to get through it :) thank you for the relief.
Dr. Urooj and his staff are amazing! Not only did they get me in same day for a new patient appointment, he got me in the next day for my procedure. He explained everything and answered all my questions. He was very informative and gave me tools (at home exercises etc.) to help me get the relief I need! I am so thankful and have already shared his name and office with family and friends. My rating….11/10
Dr. Urooj is the best! I came with pain in my foot for years to now having no pain!!! He is very informative and takes his time explaining the procedures and what is needed for your feet!!! Best Dr!!!! His whole team is polite and helpful! I recommend to anyone needing help with their feet!!!
Dr. Urooj and his staff are amazing. Every step and process is always explained in detail. Dr. Urooj listens as well as he explains his treatment plans or procedures. Staff in the office are on top of all aspects of insurance coverage and out of pocket expenses. I had total foot reconstruction surgery with Dr. Urooj and never felt in better hands!
I had a positive surgical experience with Dr. Usman Urooj.
Dr. Urooj was an amazing provider and surgeon. He walked me through the entire process from beginning to end. My fusion surgery was a success and exactly what he said it would be. Love this doctor and his entire staff. Both clinical and front office.
I’ve had the best experience with Dr. Usman Urooj. He is very knowledgeable and caring. The front staff was fantastic too. I highly recommend this office.
Dr. Urooj has been great! We did the shockwave treatment on a nagging Achilles bursitis issue and it’s been nearly eradicated, and definitely improved over when I first sought treatment. I would recommend him for any foot-related issues!
