I had seen two podiatrists before I saw Dr. Buratti. Neither had a clue what the problem was with my feet. Dr. Buratti understood what the problem was immediately and knew what to do to help me. She has changed my life for the better.

I am so thrilled to have found a wonderful Dr. who truly loves her work and is kind and generous with her time and care. From the moment you walk into Dr. Buratti's office it is red carpet treatment. Her office is beautiful and comfortable, her staff members are kind and attentive and Dr. Buratti is upbeat, friendly and truly doing what she loves, giving top notch care to her patients. My feet have never been so happy. It may sound corny ( no pun intended) but my feet and I are very happy!

Several years ago Dr. Buratti did my bunion surgery and to this day it is doing great. Very happy. I cannot even see the scar. More recently I had a joint become swollen and flare up and tendon pain, I have been getting the cold laser therapy for a few weeks, and every time I get up from the chair I feel a difference. I was skeptical about "laser" at first, I mean how much can it really do? Well it helps reduce pain and inflammation. No doubt about it.

As a Type I Diabetic since childhood, I have been coming to see Dr Buratti for 15+ years. She has been treating me for diabetic-related foot concerns. More recently, she has treated me for severe pressure wounds that developed on my heels, both of which were serious Stage 4 wounds. Because of Dr Buratti's expertise in podiatry, my feet were both saved from potential amputation. Her personal attention was critical to my getting thru this yearlong ordea

This is my first visit to Dr. Buratti and I left wanting to hug her. I had an injury to my ankle and had been seeing an orthopedic with no positive results. Dr. Buratti was incredible. She took the time to evaluate the immediate symptoms of my pain and discomfort, but also look into the structural causes of the symptoms. She explained everything in detail and I felt that she was truly engaged in my short and long term well-being. I cannot say enough wonderful things about Dr. Buratti.

I contemplated bunion surgery for over a decade before she did her unique technique on me called the Fast Forward bunion surgery. I was scared of orthopedic surgery as I had a bad outcome with a spine surgery in 2001. So, I kept researching the differences between the endless number of bunion surgeries that are available. I wanted a surgery that breaks no normal bones nor fuses a healthy joint. Believe it or not almost all foot surgery for bunion correction does one of these two. Not Dr. Buratti. Instead, I had the her Fast Forward surgery which tethers 2 bones together. It is now 9 months since my foot surgery, and I am doing amazingly. I am back to doing any sports I want with no pain. If you choose the Fast Forward surgery, know that that does not mean “Immediate Forward”. My success was because I waited months before returning to any walking for exercise (or other sports activities). I would choose Dr. Buratti again in a heartbeat! She is patient, warm, & kind!

I could hardly walk before my last visit to Dr. Buratti's office. She removed two painful corns between my toes. I was sure it was going to be very painful, but much to my surprise, I hardly felt anything & was able to walk without pain when I left her office. She is a skilled surgeon, answers questions & is patient, caring & very knowledgeable. I am so happy she is in Malibu every Monday.
“Dr. Buratti is Outstanding.”

dr dawn has been my foot expert for a very long time. i entrust the care of my feet to no one else and i refer her to friends and family because she cares. i had a very painful callus on a toe that caused me much discomfort on a daily basis. i need to dress for my work which means wearing heels. dr dawn came up w/ a solution for me which was a filler injection eliminating the pain almost instantly. imagine--a filler. leave it to dr dawn to come up w/ such an innovative solution.

Dr. Buratti diagnosed a tailor's bunion and worked with me, trying different options ie cortisone shots, as I wanted surgery to be the last resort. Eventually I opted for surgery and am very happy I did. No more pain in my foot!

La doctora Buratti es genial. Yo la vi para corregir un problema de juanetes en los pies. Llegue con mucho temor porque nunca he tenido serugia, pero la doctora me hizo sentir segura con mi decision. Sali perfecta! La serugia fue casi sin dolor, y nada como la gente me habia dicho. Ella es muy contenta y amable, se esfuerza para ayudar a sus pacientes. Le agradezco todo lo que ha hecho por mi, si no fuera por ella y su paciencia no tuviera mis pies en el suelo. Muchas gracias Doctora Buratti!

Dr. Buratti performed a chielectomy with a Cartiva implant on me, this is a cutting edge procedure which she executed flawlessly. Dr. Buratti was always available to me throughout the entire process and I feel that she and her team went above and beyond the call of duty. I highly recommend her.
