A CPed is not a medical doctor. If you’ve been diagnosed with a foot condition, a CPed will work in tandem with your doctor, filling your footwear prescriptions and recommending solutions that supplement your treatment plan. A CPed can also evaluate you for over-the-counter orthotics.

When it comes to solving foot pain, a well-fitting pair of shoes or custom orthotics can make a monumental difference. Depending on your condition, wearing certain types of footwear can also help slow progression or prevent new issues from appearing. Our CPeds will recommend solutions that promote comfort and reduce pain by bringing your feet into alignment or moving pressure away from sensitive areas. 

Finding the perfect fit depends on a number of factors, and our CPeds look at the whole picture of your feet to ensure ultimate comfort. When you come in for your free evaluation, your CPed will:

• Measure the length and width of both feet

• Observe your arch length and type

• Consider volume and unique features

• Ensure a proper fit when shoes are on your feet
