After being with a well known podiatrist in the desert for many years, I decided to get a second…read moreopinion for my painful fallen arch due to continued pain. Unlike my regular doctor who has become too busy, and the front desk which is not well run, Dr. Phillips was found to be personable, listened with patience and far better explained the pain issues. He recommended a different type of orthotic (OTC) versus the $500 custom and uncomfortable orthotic made by previous doctor. Dr. Phillips was chosen because of his high Yelp reviews and this is one more to add to his well deserved reputation.

Within last 5 days I've sent 2 texts & 1 online form with zero response. I had a billing issue recently and I was unable to speak with their billing department.

Their patient portal has never worked for me and when I've asked for help they give same useless response. I was referred to Dr. Rife at Eisenhower Desert Orthopedic, appointment in 2 days.

On November 10 , 2025, I had an appointment with Dr. Ben Wehrli. I had seen him several times…read morebefore then. When I had last seen him, he said if I had future needs for my feet, to come see him. When I arrived at the office and said I had an appointment with him, the desk person said, in an abrupt manner, "he's not in!" When explaining that I had an appointment with him she became very nasty and actually abusive: " I told you he was not in!" I had made my appointment specifically with Dr, Wehrli quite a bit earlier than November 10. I was assigned to a younger less experienced doctor. He seems very nice but certainly not as experienced as Dr Wehrli. X-rays were done of my foot. I never received a report from a radiologist. I never received any copy of the X-rays. I never received a podiatrist evaluation of the X-rays. I never received a diagnosis of my foot condition, I never received a recommendation for treatment of my condition. Nothing in writing post exam. On my way out, he merely said something like, "seems good." I have tried many, many times to reach someone who could help me. I almost never got past the front desk. I left message after message at the front desk for both Rosie the office manager and the young doctor who treated me. I spoke with Rosie briefly twice. Each time she said she would send me my documents and have the young doctor contact me. I never received any documents. He finally called me called and left a message six days ago. He did not leave a direct number. Just the front desk number again. I called him back but he has not called me. The attitude in this office is one of total uncooperativeness, rude and insulting behaviour, and nothing like what I expect from a physician abiding by the Hippocratic Oath of professionalism. I always found Dr Wehrli to be competent and with a nice bedside manner. My happiness with this office ends there. His running of the office is shocking to me. I now find that probably the only way I will be able to obtain my documents is to file a complaint under the federal HIPAA Act, which will take time and effort just to obtain my medical records currently in their possession which they refuse to provide to me. Why the culture of this office has declined so much is unknown to me. I will move on to find another podiatrist and start all over with my foot problems. They will need my past podiatry records.

I would never go to Dr. Wehrli again! Staff is rude and inconsiderate. The office location moved,…read morecancelled appointments that were then rescheduled making the wait time between appointments too long.

My journey with Dr. Bobby and his staff started on 12/12/25. The VA Hospital had zero openings to…read moresee me for 6 months, so the VA offered for me to go into the community to be treated. The VA is contracted with Dr. Bobby to treat veterans through the Community Care Network(CCN). My neighbor Jessay had told me about Palm Springs Podiatry and how well they treated him, so I decided to call for an appointment. I met with Dr. Bobby to discuss this injury. I had 4 years of plantar fascia pain(pf)with no relief; even with the Topaz Coblation Procedure that had been performed at the VA Hospital. Dr. Bobby did the "open plantar fascia" surgery on my foot to alleviate the tension in my PF. 4 months post-surgery and my PF feels better and continues to heal. From start to finish, my experience with PSP was seamless. I want to thank Dr. Bobby and all of the ladies and gents that worked with me on this journey. Maggie, thank you for contacting the VA and working with them to get this all approved. I know it ain't easy! Oh, and thanks for the lemon candies too! To all of the MA's: Aleydis, Angie aka "Slim", Edith, and Ivy and Fernando; Great teamwork, sense of humor and effort from these ladies and gents. You are what we would affectionately call, "The Bomb.Com." To Nurse Becky...you handle business and are so thorough. Thank you for helping me along this journey. Shout out to the ladies at the front desk keeping me informed of my appointments! I have some short-term memory issues, so I appreciate the updates. I'll be seeing Dr. Bobby again!

I wanted to…read moreseek care elsewhere as the previous podiatrists I had seen for bilateral foot pain didn't really help me. I decided to check out Dr. Bobby Pourziaee despite reading some bad reviews on yelp. I'm so glad I chose to seek care with Dr. Bobby Pourziaee. On my first visit I was greeted and treated with kindness by the front office staff. The office is very nice and clean. Love how every room has air humidifiers. You can really feel how clean the air is when you are breathing. When I was taken to the back office to be roomed, the medical assistant was very polite and welcoming. When Dr. Bobby Pourziaee came to see me, he listened to all my concerns and answered all my questions and provided me with different options for my care. When I went to schedule my next appointment with Maggie G(office manager), she was also very kind. All the staff have been very nice and professional. After not much improvement with cortisone shots I was offered surgery for my left foot. Dr. Pourziaee explained the surgery to me and any questions I had, he answered professionally. I'm so glad I proceeded with foot surgery. I had my surgery on 11/14/25. When I was in the recovery room after my surgery, Dr. Pourziaee came to check up on me and that just showed me what a great doctor he is. He really cares for his patients. Throughout my after surgery follow up visit's with provider Becky and her nurses Aleydis & Angye, they all provided excellent care. They all took great care of me. Anytime I had any questions or concerns, I was able to simply pick up the phone and call Maggie and she'd have an answer for me. I have nothing but good things to say about all Palm Springs Podiatry Staff. I appreciate all their hard work. I highly recommend Dr. Pourziaee and his staff for your podiatry care. Please don't let the negative reviews get in the way of scheduling an appointment. I'm glad I decided to book my appointment. Respectfully, A Very Happy & Satisfied patient

First of all, I'm a retired firefighter paramedic. I worked in a very busy urban city with many…read moremore hospitals and trauma centers then we have here in the desert. I am used to being seen quickly and getting an appointment with a doctor in a reasonable amount of time. I understand it is different here. I have used their emergency room once and was severely misdiagnosed. It turns out I actually had to have back surgery when they kept telling me I was basically making a big deal out of "nothing "and i'm sure they thought I was seeking pain meds. Imagine my surprise when I went to a doctor in the Los Angeles area and he told me what idiots they were in the emergency room. I was scheduled for back surgery right away. As you can see, I still haven't gotten over it lol .So never go to their emergency room. That being said ,the orthopedic center is completely different. I had no problem getting an appointment after my PMD sent a request for an orthopedic to see my knee. I was seen on time and everything was very professional. Dr.Diltz was great. I felt like a fool coming in for what I thought wasn't a big deal, but it turns out it could be. He never talked down to me, never made me feel like I didn't know what I was talking about like some doctors do. I have a follow up with him to review my MRI and I am looking forward to it. It's nice to have a Doctor Who listens to you and has some compassion. The only reason I dropped a star was NOT for the doctor. It was just the wait time. I had to wait about a month and a half to get an appointment with the doctor. I'm definitely not used to that, but like I said it's different here in the desert. I highly recommend Dr.Diltz. Also, their MRI staff in their orthopedic center is fabulous. So professional! saw me on time. They were great. Absolutely recommend

Unprofessional Conduct & HIPAA ViolationRating: 1/5I am writing this review to warn others about my…read moreexperience with Karimdad Amir Otarodi, M.D. (who also practices under the previous medical license name Karimdad Otarodifard). I have been seeing him since 2024 for an auto injury, and my experience has been marked by medical record inaccuracies, extreme unprofessionalism, and a severe breach of patient privacy.1. Medical Record Inaccuracies & Medical GaslightingDuring my treatment, Dr. Otarodi insisted he had given me an injection to help my pain. He never administered this shot. When I returned to discuss a shoulder manipulation or surgery, he told me I was not healthy enough to "go under" anesthesia. When I asked about manipulation, he contradicted himself by saying it would work but I would still need to be "under," failing to explain what he meant. When I mentioned that a second-opinion doctor agreed with the manipulation plan, Dr. Otarodi became highly upset. He aggressively insisted he had given me the shot. When I asked him to look at my chart to see his mistake, he became so angry that he walked out of the room.2. Retaliation & HIPAA Privacy ViolationsBecause I lost complete trust in Dr. Otarodi, I asked for my medical records to file a formal complaint and spoke with the office manager to find a new doctor. While I was speaking with the office manager behind closed doors, Dr. Otarodi stormed into the room. He began shouting about my private medical history loudly enough for the office staff and patients in the public waiting area to hear. This is a blatant violation of federal HIPAA privacy laws.3. Attempted Trespass & ConclusionWhen I asked Dr. Otarodi to leave so I could finish transferring my care, he retaliated by ordering the office manager to call the police and have me trespassed from the property. Recognizing his erratic behavior, the office manager repeatedly asked Dr. Otarodi to leave the room instead. He refused to leave until I threatened to call the police myself to report his HIPAA violation.Ultimately, the office manager was very helpful, recognized the issue, and successfully transferred me to a new provider. It was clear during this interaction that the staff themselves are uncomfortable working with this doctor. If you are seeking an accurate medical record, privacy, and professional care, I strongly advise finding a different physician.

She sent me a picture which appeared to be an ingrown toenail. I forwarded it to Dr. Phillips. He agreed. I explained we would be leaving the next day and asked for his recommendation. He said "We need to take care of that tonite". By 8pm we were at his office. By 9 he had painlessly removed both ingrown toenails while we watched. The next morning we left with complete confidence that she would be fine. There is only one small challenge when I refer a patient to Dr. Phillips, they return bragging about him in my office. Well, I guess we can allow that.
