The best podiatrist ever she cured me so many times I adore her. She's wonderful. I've been coming to Carolyn for 25 years. I recently came back to get some new orthotics so grateful. read more

Dr. Chun is wonderful. I saw her for several years while I was working nearby. My husband sees her as well.

I've been going to Dr. Chun for nearly 20 years for orthotics. She's very detail oriented and listens well to all of my heel pain issues. Plus the office staff is always nice and friendly. One the unique things about Dr. Chun is that she has her own in-house workbench, which she uses to make minor customization and adjustments to the orthotics as well as redo covers, most of time while I wait. All other podiatrists need to send them back to third party shops and require additional office visits. I've tried at least 4 other podiatrists in the last 4 years since I no longer work in the area. None of them was able to make the orthotics fit properly because I require some special customization. After wasting a lot of time and money I eventually made the trek across town back to Dr. Chun. read more

Negative reviews always scare me so I wanted to write working with Dr. Chun was great in my experience. She recommended the topical cream for me over the oral medication opting for the less destructive route to my gut and also found me the best price for the prescription I need read more

I barely write any reviews, but I feel people need to be aware of how this business operates. The MD is nice, she seems knowledgeable and I did invested in custom orthotics and as well "foot stretching boots". The problem is that the orthotics need to be "re-covered" every couple of months and that is an excruciating process: it can take days before you get it back, they never know when they will be ready, they never call you back on any update, it seems the whole process is more like a favor (mind you my insurance will be billed for it, and I offered multiple times to pay cash, if that would speed up the process). The office girls are just RUDE and seemingly annoyed in doing their job. If I would have known that was the torture I needed to go through every 3 months, I would have invested my money somewhere else. read more

We kissed a few frogs till we luckily found Dr. Chun. She has such good bedside manner and is very thorough!! My mom, who has many corns and issues with her feet, left feeling like her feet were 10 years younger and lighter. We are so thankful we found this caring doctor and will only go to her from now on. read more

I wish I had MORE foot problems! Not really of course, but so consistently pleasant and professional are Dr. Chun and the entire staff that I've always felt well taken care of and listened to. The attention to detail is great, and everybody is friendly. I take choosing my physicians very carefully and Dr. Chun and the team are right up there with the best. Thank you for taking care of my feet! read more

Dr. Chun is an awesome and professional doctor. I've gone to her twice, and on the second appointment, she gave a cream that treated the problem and it never came back. She is caring, knowledgeable, and explains everything in detail. The staff is also extremely welcoming and and is always accommodating to the times I needed to come in because of my work schedule. I highly recommend Dr. Chun for all your podiatry needs. read more

By chance I passed by the office at 1990 Westwood Blvd. For years, I had a hard, painful callous between two toes, that I could not got rid of with over-the-counter remedies. On a walk-in I was given an appointment with Dr. Carolyn Chun. I said to the doctor that the area between my toes had been bothering me for years. It took her very little time to scrape off the growth; afterwards she told me that it probably would grow back. (It hasn't.) So far, taking my problem to an unknown office, using my own steam at random, turned out to be great, and my insurance? That's what it's for. Win-win. BUT. Dr. Chun kept repeating that I should get fitted for orthotic inserts. I had certainly heard of those. I'd had previous opportunities to get them, but I never was keen or convinced, and I told Dr. Carolyn Chun that--that I was not eager to use them, and didn't really think they were a big deal. However, she kept urging that I get fitted. Since I was happy that the problem I HONESTLY had seemed resolved, I was in an unfortunately agreeable frame of mind (due to success at getting the only resolution I legitimately needed regarding my foot health). I say unfortunate, because, the office ordered orthotics, and at NO TIME did anyone associated with Dr. Carolyn Chun, or the practice at 1990 Westwood inform me that the orthotics they UPSOLD constituted an out-of-pocket charge over-and-above my more-than-decent insurance coverage, of almost $200 (two-hundred dollars). Had I been informed of the substantial charge, as SURELY must be the ethical professional medical practice, I absolutely would have said 'no way': not least, because I was clear to Dr. Chun that I did not care much about the product, nor find it essential. I consider this experience a BILKING by this office. read more

Oh my no. I showed up with foot pain and Dr Chun diagnosed me with Plantar Fasciitis. She took an x-ray to show me my Calcaneal spur. She then spent the next 30 minutes trying to explain to me why I needed to buy an expensive custom Orthotic. When I asked about pre-fab orthotics she said they could help but she couldn't recommend any specifically. She also told me to get new shoes. But again, couldn't recommend any brands. Not one. I asked for stretches. She offered one, a calf stretch and that's it. And didn't offer it until I asked if stretching could help. After further research I checked the Podiatry Today website and journals and found that (i) pre-fabs and custom Orthos both reduce pain of plantar fasciitis sufferers by 30% (ii) calcaneal spurs do not cause plantar fasciitis or pain in the heel and (iii) found numerous helpful stretches including the DiGiovanni stretch and the anterior tibialis stretch (stretching toes downward). This lady simply wants to sell you expensive ortho's that she knows work no better than the $50 pre-fabs. No need to believe me... go to Podiatry Today and search "orthoses-plantar-fasciitis-what-evidence-reveals". read more

Dr. Chun has helped me through my planter fascitis over the past few sessions. She didn't drag the process along to look for other issues to rack up medical bills. The first session she had me walk for her and describe how my pain felt, then she took an x-ray, diagnosed me right there, and wrapped my feet to simulate the orthotic feel and sent me home. I had issues figuring out my deductible; her staff called me back 2 days later telling me what was covered, and how much I had to bill until I hit the deductible and got 95% of costs covered. Second Visit she had me fitted for the orthotics. Third visit she tested them out and gave me instructions. 4th Visit she put stabilizers on my inserts, and now I'm good to go! Great bedside manner, honest and ready to help. read more

I love Dr. Chun. She is amazing!! Very attentive and pleasant. I had a few procedures done and I am happy with results! I will be referring her to all my friends and family. read more

My daughter needed to see a podiatrist and her regular practitioner was out of town. I found Dr. Chun on Yelp, called her office and they were able to get her in within the hour. The receptionist, nurse and Dr. Chun were fantastic. They were polite, funny and appropriately attentive. My 10 year old is very apprehensive about doctors, but Dr. Chen's "bedside manner" was warm, calming and jovial. She set my daughter at ease and engaged her in conversation while she did a relatively painful procedure with very little painful reactions from my daughter. Another reviewer mentioned her location on Santa Monica Blvd. - it's a storefront, not your traditional looking doctors office, but the service and care far outweigh the less than fancy accommodations. Looks like we'll be switching to Dr. Chun from here on out! read more

Dr. Chun is very attentive and professional. She treated my foot issue and I've referred many of my friends and family. Her office staff is also wonderful! read more

I would really recomend to everybody to avoid DR CAROLYN CHUNS practice. I went there for a particular reason and i didnt get any results out of it, the only thing o got it was a huge bill; i tried to worked out my bills whit the staff but it didnt worked, and i have been triyng to get a hold of DR CAROLYN and they told me "she wont call me today, only for that reason". Please be aware if you are thinking in visit PODIATRIC DR CAROLYN CHUN read more

Dr Chun, Melanie, Keisha, Nubia, and Silvia, you guys are great! I love coming to the office, now that I know what to expect, it's a pleasure to see all of you! Dr Chun, you are the best! read more

I waited too long to take care of the problem that i was experiencing in my toe but finally decided to see Dr Chun, who was my wife's podiatrist. My toe was extremely sensitive to the touch and I was quite apprehensive about the procedure. I could not believe how pain free and efficient the treatment was. If you are sensitive to pain and need a podiatrist Dr Chun is the person to see. read more

I love Dr. Chun. She is knowledgeable, professional and kind. You don't always see that in a physician. I don't want to talk her up too much because I still want to be able to get in for an appointment. ;) read more

A great foot doctor. She is very gentle. Not at all expensive. She has a second office in Santa Monica at 7th & Lincoln.

Dr. Chun is a great doctor. I love the fact that she took the time to address my concerns. She's nice, caring and professional. I woul highly recommend her. read more

Dr. Chun is knowledgable, meticulous, attentive, friendly and punctual. She helped with a combination of problems with my ankle and foot. She takes the time to listen, very patiently answers all my questions, and doesn't rush through either diagnosis or treatment. She is in network for my Covered CA insurance too! read more

I've been to several podiatrist in Los Angeles, but Dr. Chun is by far the best! She is very knowledgeable and friendly, and it's always a wonderful experience to have an appointment with her. I highly recommend her for any foot issues you may have! read more

phenomenal care; great staff; reasonable rates; and ethical office. I'd recommend Dr. Chun to anyone

Such a sweet lady. I would recommend her Santa Monica office over Westwood. The staff is just nicer.

She fixed my plantar fascitis, without just giving me a "bandaid" of a cortisone injection like my last podiatrist. She also constructed orthotics that actually work and keep the condition from coming back. In addition, she took care of some painful bump on my foot and diagnosed tendonitis and told me how to treat it. She is also very pleasant in general. I highly recommend her. read more

Excellent treatment. Personable and works hard. Highly recommend Dr. Chun. I went to other doctors previously for my foot condition, yet Dr. Chun was the only one able to effectively treat my condition. read more

Dr. Chun is a wonderful doctor, super nice and caring and she knows what she is talking about. My feet feel the best they have in years! Would certainly recommend to anyone...... read more

I would give zero stars but YELP would not let me go that low. Called to schedule an appointment and the woman at the desk was so rude it was shocking. While chewing gum, she told me to call billing or somewhere else to schedule an appointment. In shock, I called back asking to speak to someone else in the office. She put me on hold and never came back to the phone. I would not trust this office with any personal information never mind my foot. read more

I saw Dr. Chun for foot issues that I have had for a very long time. I tried various treatments that had very little effect. Then I went to see Dr. Chun. She was very patient and did a very thorough exam. She asked me detailed questions about my feet, lifestyle, and activities. Dr. Chun explained what my foot issues were and gave me choices on my treatment plan. After a few visits, I was able to exercise again and I was pain free! I would recommend Dr. Chun to everyone! Her office staff was also great! read more
