1/25/12 5 5 5 5 Very pleasant, great staff. Immediately diagnosed my problem, fixed me right up and I was pain free in just a few days. He took extra time to answer questions and explain things in simple terms. I no dummy, but I'n not a doctor and I appreciate that he treated me like a person, not just a patient! Strongly recommend!

9/9/11 5 5 5 5 My favorite doctor of all time. Not only personable and very witty (which almost makes you forget the pain you may be in), but he inspires a huge amount of trust. I never doubted for a second that he wouldn’t be able to fix the problem with my foot. I opted for surgery instead of only shoe inserts and am so glad I did. Dr. Espensen and his staff are courteous, knowledgeable and highly professional. Look no further!!

6/13/11 5 5 5 5 Awesome doctor! Kind, compassionate, caring and beyond capable, he's a true "specialist" with areas of expertise not common to the typical podiatrist. Dr. Espensen's pleasant demeanor and remarkably considerate and respectful staff made my pre- and post-operative experience a positive one indeed. My surgery was a huge success and eliminated foot pain I had been suffering with for several years. Another highly regarded doctor in the area, who trusts and respects Dr. Espensen implicitly, referred him to me.

3/3/11 5 5 5 5 He is top notch. If you know something is wrong and you went to someone who didn't take you seriously and order proper tests-- go to him. He took me seriously and ordered an MRI. He diagnosed me with a very rare congenital birth defect. It took me 3 doctors before I found one that didn't just tell me I would be fine and further tests were a waste of time. I know I'm in good hands now. If only I had seen him from the start...

9/16/10 5 5 5 5 I found Dr. Espensen on my own through a Google search! Three very positive reviews made me decide to give him a try and I am very happy that I did. He is very personable, most knowledgeable and someone in whom I immediately felt I could place my trust. Although his diagnosis was that I probably would not need to come back and that the condition would clear up by itself in a few weeks, I would have no hesitation in returning if necessary. Otherwise - a nice office, friendly staff, a wait time of less than 15 minutes before seeing him in a patient room. If you need a good podiatrist and Burbank/Glendale/Toluca Lake is convenient, he is your man!!

3/7/10 5 5 5 5 A cut above all other podiatrists in Los Angeles. He is a gem of a doctor and helped me to get out of severe foot pain. He is so very nice - without the usual "doctor ego". A good, solid doctor.

9/24/09 5 5 5 5 Dr. Espensen was very highly recommended and took wonderful care of me. He performed surgery on me and it was a complete success. He is also the Chief of his department and took time for my questions and even called me at home the day after the surgery. Highly Recommend!
