About Family Care Podiatry

At the heart of outstanding medical care lies a deep commitment to our patients, a principle that defines Dr. Ulyana Shikaloff’s approach to patient care. From her earliest days, her dedication to studying, innovating, and helping, well-being was evident, shaping a unique journey toward becoming a leading expert in foot and ankle health. Dr. Shikaloff’s foundational education began with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a minor in Chemistry from the esteemed University of San Francisco. Her pursuit of healing extended beyond the classroom; during this time, she was already actively engaged in community service, volunteering tirelessly at local hospitals and lending her expertise to charitable initiatives, including volunteering at the first aid tents at marathons. Her academic rigor continued with a Master’s degree in Medical Health Sciences from Touro University of California. It was here that Dr. Shikaloff’s intellectual curiosity led her to assist with research on Alzheimer’s disease, working in an animal lab with genetically modified mice. This sophisticated understanding of neurological pathways and systemic health connections directly informs her holistic approach to complex patient conditions, particularly her work in addressing unstable gait and preventing falls. Because of her unique research background, she precisely assesses underlying issues to provide the most effective braces and support, significantly enhancing stability and quality of life for her patients. After completing her medical training at the California School of Podiatric Medicine at Samuel Merritt University, Dr. Shikaloff pursued an intensive surgical residency at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, a facility renowned as one of the nation’s top hospitals. This rigorous training provided unparalleled experience in complex areas like limb salvage and trauma, alongside a comprehensive range of elective foot and ankle surgeries.
