Meet Our Doctor

As a San Diego native, Dr. Noushin Shoaee studied physiology at UCSD for her undergraduate work. She was then accepted into the California College of Podiatric Medicine, in San Francisco, where after a four year curriculum she received her Doctor of Podiatric Medicine. Dr. Shoaee was then selected to continue onto a dual hospital three year surgical residency program: Olive View-UCLA Medical Center and West Los Angeles Veterans Hospitals. During her training, Dr. Shoaee was exposed to a wide range of foot and ankle pathologies. At the county hospital, Dr. Shoaee underwent extensive training in foot and ankle trauma and reconstructive surgery. At the Veterans hospital there was an emphasis on limb-preservation and wound care for diabetics. She has also trained with well-known Beverly Hills Podiatrists and utilizes cosmetic surgical techniques in order to achieve minimal surgical scars and postoperative swelling. This array of surgical skills and techniques are utilized by Dr. Shoaee for any type of foot and ankle condition.

Dr. Shoaee will always exhaust all conservative and non-surgical approaches prior to considering surgery. There are a wide variety of conservative methods such as orthotics, shoe gear changes/modifications, padding and strapping, which may alleviate painful symptoms and avoid surgery all together.

Our office staff includes certified assistants and we perform a wide variety of procedures in both an office and hospital setting. All these methods are expertly and safely selected and performed.
