Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Dr. Bob Baravarian and DOCS Foot and Ankle) are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics).

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?

Websites may also use so-called “Flash Cookies” (also known as Local Shared Objects or “LSOs”) to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our services, fraud prevention, and for other site operations.

If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel. You can also control Flash Cookies by going to the Global Storage Settings Panel and following the instructions (which may include instructions that explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash Cookies (referred to “information” on the Macromedia site), how to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without your being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash Cookies that are not being delivered by the operator of the page you are on at the time).

Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.

Dr. Baravarian is so great! I had an injury to my left foot. He took x-rays and provided me with a boot! I feel like a whole new person! Now I can run again with no pain!🏃‍♀️ I recommend you to go him for any foot and ankle issues.🦶

Dr. Baravarian is absolutely an incredible doctor. He is very experienced and I am so grateful that I found him! I had 2 PRP procedures done on my ankle and didn’t feel much pain! It’s wonderful to find a doctor that is trustworthy!

My experience with Dr B was amazing.I had zero pain alter my surgery. Everything is healing so well. He is the best!

Dr. Bavarian was great. He said i didn’t need to remove part of my nail…the infection would subside. Very honest. Staff was great, kind. Irtually no wait. I recommend highly.

Dr Bob is the best! I have needed this bunion surgery for years, and when I met Dr. Bob I felt 100 percent confident he was the right Dr. to correct my bunion! I have completed the right foot and will be doing the left foot in a couple weeks! Thanks to Dr Bob I will be able to be super active and no longer have pain! I am so grateful to him. Rachael H

He is excellent. Highly recommended

I love there staff super nice and friendly and when you meet the doctor is to die for😁super friendly and he explains everything clearly and makes sure you understand everything before he leaves the room doesn’t rush you at all

I was able to get an appointment the next day after dislocating my toe. I had a great experience. The staff were friendly and the doctor answered all my questions.

This is a first class experience with a world-leading research surgeon. If "good enough" isn't good enough for you, this is where you want to go.

Great service. Very attentive. Even took us early.

I have been so impressed with Dr. Bob. Ive never sat in the waiting room one minute longer than my appointment time. That’s a real plus. More importantly is his honest, professional approach to his craft and his commitment to my recovery. He’s the best and I highly recommend him.

Dr. Baravarian is incredible! After three podiatrists and a failed surgery left me with no answers for my feet pain, Dr. Baravarian figured out the real cause of the pain in the first visit.I was ready for another surgery to fix the first one, but he held off until the root issue was treated. My hammer toe and bunion surgery went perfectly—I was amazed to have no pain afterward! Dr. Baravarian is super knowledgeable and explained everything about the surgery and recovery clearly, making me feel informed and at ease. I also want to extend my gratitude to his staff, who were incredibly kind and supportive throughout my treatment.

Prompt professional service as always!

dr baravarian is an excellent dr. he diagnosed my issue, prescribed the perfect remedy and his treatment has allowed me to resume all my activities. he saw me on time and his office staff is also very good

I highly recommend Dr. Baravarian. From checking in at the front desk to the doctors diagnosis everything went smoothly and diagnosis was good. After care instructions were explained well.

Great experience Everyone was very nice and efficient Thank you so much

Professional, courteous, and efficient

I consider him a knowledgeable and experienced Ankel specialist. I chose him as my foot doctor and continue to receive treatment. I decided to give him a 5 star rating.

Quick and easy

Only the best! Dr. Baravarian is so good and kind! I highly recommend him!
