Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about children's footcare? Check out our FAQs for answers to common queries:
At what age should my child have their first podiatric assessment?
We recommend scheduling your child’s first podiatric assessment by the age of 2 or whenever you notice any concerns with their foot development or walking pattern. Early detection and intervention can help prevent potential issues from progressing.
Are custom orthotics necessary for every child with foot issues?
Custom orthotics are not always necessary for every child with foot issues. Our podiatrists will assess your child’s condition thoroughly and recommend the most appropriate treatment plan, which may include custom orthotics or other interventions tailored to their specific needs.
What should I do if my child complains of foot pain?
If your child complains of foot pain, it’s essential to schedule a podiatric assessment promptly. Our expert podiatrists will examine your child’s feet, diagnose the underlying cause of the pain, and recommend appropriate treatment options to alleviate discomfort and promote healthy foot development.
