Why You Bring Kids to a Specialist First

  • Kids’ bones, joints, and soft tissues are still developing — what looks like “just a toe problem” may impact future growth.
  • Many pediatric foot issues resolve more easily when caught early; delaying care can make correction more complex.
  • General providers often lack training in growth plate conditions, alignment issues, or biomechanical evaluation in children.
  • At our practice, you won’t get passed along — a foot & ankle specialist sees your child from assessment through resolution.

Common Pediatric Conditions We Treat

  • Flat feet (fallen arches)
  • In-toeing / out-toeing and gait abnormalities
  • Heel pain / Sever’s disease / Apophysitis
  • Ingrown toenails
  • Toe deformities (e.g. mild hammertoes)
  • Growing pains affecting the foot, ankle, leg
  • Juvenile bunions
  • Sports injuries (sprains, tendonitis, growth plate injuries)
If your child complains about foot pain, limps, or avoids activities — even if symptoms seem small — it’s worth evaluation.

How We Treat Pediatric Foot Issues

We focus on safe, effective, child-friendly care:
  • Thorough evaluation — gait analysis, structural alignment, imaging if needed
  • Conservative / noninvasive care — orthotics, shoe modification, physical therapy
  • Minor, in-office procedures when needed — with techniques suited to children
  • Growth-guided correction — interventions timed to growth phases
  • Monitoring over time to ensure proper development and prevent recurrence
Many pediatric procedures are minimally invasive with rapid recovery.

When to Seek Pediatric Foot Care

Bring your child in when:
  • Complaints of limping, heel pain, or stiffness
  • One foot looks different than the other
  • Difficulty walking, running, or participating in activity
  • Repeated complaints about shoes or pressure on toes
  • Concerns about alignment, in-toeing, or out-toeing
Early evaluation can prevent more serious issues down the road.
