I was able to text him on his personal line and he responded within minutes! Even at 6:30 in the morning. This is unheard of. I read some of the negative reviews (not of Dr. Barnett) and I, frankly, find them rather frustrating. They seem rather short-sighted and hastily written. Furthermore, the only complaint they seem to have is in regard to the wait. I suppose that everyone has a different experience, but my experiences with Dr. Barnett have been the best in my fifty years of dealing with medical professionals.

I recently went to this doctor for another opinion on an issue with my achilles and feet since it's…read morealways good to compare doctors. He was excellent. Great bedside manner, knew his stuff, clear, patient with me, explained things clearly, and suggested treatment that aligned with a doctor I'd been recently treated by, Dr. Hattan (who was the second doctor I saw after visiting a terrible doctor Dr. Petersen of Pacific Foot and Ankle Center who, from my experience, shouldn't be practicing medicine!). It is extraordinarily important to shop around for good doctors, especially when it comes to your health and such a wide variety of medical professionals out there. Dr. Kolondenker is a top-rate doctor in every way, and it shows. Now I have two great podiatrists to make up for the one bad one, and when Dr. Hattan is out of town or booked, I will see Dr. Kolondenker. He's truly the best of the best in every way. I was greatly impressed, which is not easy for me since I have such high standards.

What really stood out to me, though, was his bedside manner. He's very friendly, never rushes, and made sure I understood every step of the process.

He is open ears, realistic, and just makes your injury/condition bearable. I resulted with a minor injury (compared to what he typically sees), however to me it was a huge barrier to my active life.

I am FOREVER grateful for his kindness, empathy, and care (as well as his staff). I feel extremely privileged to have been under his care. I recommend going in with lots of questions just to make sure you cover all basis. He will answer them all. Expect high quality care.

After my C3-C6 spinal fusion in 2023, I was unsure what my future would look like, but thanks to their expertise, I have just completed an incredible year-long retirement journey. ​In the past year, I've traveled through over 20 cities across Taiwan, Japan, Korea, and China, walking thousands of steps daily and fully embracing my life. While recovery is a process that requires patience, Dr. Smith and Josh were the support system that made these adventures possible. ​My only request? Dr. Smith, you are not allowed to retire--at least not while I'm still around! I have too much travel planned and I need the best team behind me. If you are looking for a surgeon who can help you reclaim your life and keep you moving, I give Dr. Smith and his team my highest recommendation.

I had my L4-L5 lumbar fusion in April 2024 and just passed my one-year post-op. The outcome has been outstanding -- appropriate expectations were set pre-operatively, the procedure went exactly as planned, and the recovery support was consistent and thorough throughout. For anyone weighing a lumbar fusion and wanting a surgeon who will treat you like an intelligent adult and deliver results: look no further. Five stars.

I had an outstanding experience at Orange County Podiatry. When I called to schedule an…read moreappointment, I honestly didn't expect to be seen so quickly. The staff offered me the choice of a same-day appointment or one the following day. I chose the next day, and the scheduling process was incredibly easy and convenient. From the moment I arrived, everyone was welcoming and professional. Check-in was quick, and I was called back to the exam room within minutes. Shortly after, Dr. Yang came in, which I really appreciated because I wasn't left waiting like I have been at many other medical offices. Dr. Yang took the time to explain my options for treating my pinky toe. He explained the difference between removing the ingrown portion of the nail, which would eventually grow back, and performing a permanent procedure that involved numbing my toe, removing the nail, and applying acid to prevent it from growing back. He made sure I understood everything before moving forward. What impressed me the most was that I didn't expect the procedure to be done that same day. Based on my past experiences with other doctors, I assumed I would only be evaluated and then have to schedule another appointment for the actual procedure. Instead, Dr. Yang was able to take care of everything during my visit. I really appreciated not having to come back for a second appointment, which saved me both time and the cost of another copay. My entire visit, including check-in, the consultation, and the procedure was completed in less than an hour. It's refreshing to find a medical office that values patients' time while still providing exceptional care. I highly recommend Orange County Podiatry and Dr. Yang. The entire staff was friendly, efficient, and caring, and they made what could have been a stressful visit a smooth and positive experience. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for excellent podiatry care.
