Foot problems are wide and varied and can impact negatively on your lifestyle and general well being. Our professional team of podiatrists in Wallsend are ready to care for your feet whether it be diagnosing and managing complex foot pain and deformity or tending to the foot care needs of those no longer able to tend to their own feet.
For many varied reasons including bad knees, hips and backs as well as vertigo, many people find it difficult to tend their own feet. Generally speaking orthotics are devices podiatrists use to alter foot function and mechanics to address a specific concern. The earlier we are able to diagnose certain foot problems in children the better their long term outlook.
