We have been seeing Dr Tikiwala for a few months now and absolutely adore her. She is so incredibly personable, knowledgeable, and spends as much time with us as we need every time we see her. Her support staff is also wonderful and so accommodating. We are so thankful and thrilled we found this office- they are the best.Posted on Google

I went to University Foot Assoc. in great pain. Laura greeted me and was so friendly and welcoming. I then saw nurse Maria who was also so friendly and asked me questions to let the doctor know what was going on. Took X-rays and took me to a room to see the doctor. Dr. Tikiwala was very sweet and gentle examining my foot and ankle. She could see I was in pain. Reviewing the X-rays she let me know I had a hairline fracture. She fitted me with a boot and it seemed like my pain was gone. Such a relief. I canโt thank everyone enough for such great care. I Highly recommend coming to this facility for helping with your foot issues. Thank you again.Posted on Google

I just want to take the time to say that Dr. Tikiwala is truly 100/100 โ a full 10/10 โ and absolutely deserves 5 stars. From the moment I called last minute, in pure panic over a ruptured Achilles, the front desk staff was incredible. They got me in as fast as possible, and I am extremely grateful. My doctor is more than an angel โ she is beyond professional, kind, gentle, honest, and real. She told me exactly what was going on, what it looked like, the outcomes, and the worstโcase scenarios. I appreciate that so much because Iโm the type who wants it straight, no sugarโcoating. Itโs going to be a long road, but she kept it honest and supportive the entire way. A walking goddess in the flesh. She helped me through my surgery at Advocate Hospital, and I owe her my life โ and my Achilles โ because we all know what brought down Troy. She was amazing from start to finish, and I will be thankful forever. This is not a paid review โ this is a real review because this office truly deserves it. And for anyone worried about bills or payments, from what I saw, thatโs not true at all. They tell you exactly how things work, theyโre willing to help, and they provide a service that is absolutely worth it. It shows across the board from the moment you walk in. Thank you, truly. I am grateful beyond words. love mo!Posted on Google

The new doctor at this practice, Dr. Audey Nasser, really is the ideal podiatrist. Not only is he an extraordinarily talented surgeon, he is a genuinely good person who knows how to put the patient first -- unfortunately, a trait that seems far too rare these days. After seeing him myself, I felt perfectly comfortable trusting my mother in his care. You will be treated like a family member. Update: I recently went in for an update to my orthotics and the process was quick, efficient, and painless! Excellent practice.Posted on Google

Dr. Nasser and staff exceeded my expectations, they were prompt and time which is a major plus for me going to any doctor. They answered all my questions and most importantly listened to my concerns. Once Dr Nasser gathered all the information he provided a solution to the problem that we concluded was best for my lifestyle. I highly recommend this office if you want a doctor that listens and is empathetic. Well done University Foot Associates!Posted on Google

Dr. Nasser, DPM and his staff exemplify not only professional knowledge of medical foot care and treatment, but do so with kindness that sets them apart from other professionals in the field. By adding Saturday hours it makes their availability even more appealing. Linda P.Posted on Google

Dr. Nasser and his team was very accommodating. They visited my mom in the hospital and then were able to get us a follow up appointment after discharge to take care of everything. The front desk person is very kind and courteous too! Their office, exam rooms, etc. are also very nice. Thank you!Posted on Google
