A Board Certified Podiatrist at Diablo Foot Ankle serving patients in Walnut Creek and Antioch California.
" I needed a corrective procedure done on my left foot after bunion surgery that was done over 40 years ago. I had consulted with a few other podiatrists and wasn’t happy with the way they wanted to do the procedure. I found Dr Elmi and upon my first visit with him, I knew that I had found the right doctor. Dr Elmi listened to my concerns and was very thorough in explaining exactly what needed to be done. He made me feel confident that the outcome would be a positive one. I would highly recommend Dr Elmi to anyone with any type of foot problem. "

" This visit was an unbelievably positive one from my phone call to them setting up my appointment to the actual exam by Dr Essapoor. I absolutely adore every single staff member there. Dr Essapoor is great at what he does and is really thorough in explaining procedures and home care necessary to bring about healthy feet. In a nutshell, one of the top 2 office visits I’ve had in my lifetime (I’m 69!). And, my feet are so much better post-treatment by Dr Essapoor! "
