Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I found myself happily under the care of Dr. Jay Berenter's professional excellence and his keen personal commitment to bringing a medical issue to a successful resolution.

Dr. Berenter
Dr. Berenter did my foot surgery and I have been nothing but pleased with the outcome and the way his office staff and surgery staff took care of me from start to finish. If I have any more foot needs, I will definitely be going to Dr. Berenter again.

Caring, professional expert.
Dr Berenter took the time to listen to my history, then after a short physical he came to a diagnosis and a plan of. Action that avoided surgery. Highly recommend him. Also a shout out to the office staff, from the front desk to clinical aids. Incredibly professional team all around.

Dr. Berenter Delivers Expert Compassionate Care
Dr. Berenter at So Cal Foot Care in La Jolla is truly exceptional! I’ve been his patient for over a decade and have experienced his outstanding care through two significant procedures - a bunion surgery in 2011 and more recently, a fibroma removal.What sets Dr. Berenter apart is his remarkable combination of technical expertise and genuine compassion. He takes the time to thoroughly explain every aspect of treatment, ensuring you understand exactly what to expect throughout the healing process. In both of my surgeries, recovery proceeded precisely as he outlined - no surprises, just the promised results.His attention to detail is impeccable, whether during surgical procedures or routine follow-ups. The entire team at So Cal Foot Care reflects his commitment to excellence, creating a supportive and professional environment from the moment you walk in.Dr. Berenter’s wonderful personality makes potentially stressful medical visits actually enjoyable. He listens attentively, addre
