Appointment # 1 - Initial Evaluation
45-60 minutes
Your pedorthist will do a full evaluation including biomechanical and video gait analysis, range of motion measurements and related medical history.
Your current footwear will also be assessed for their compatibility with our treatment options so please bring a selection of your most commonly worn footwear.
If custom made orthotics are decided upon as the appropriate treatment, your pedorthist will take a non-weightbearing 3D laser scan of your feet. A fitting appointment will be scheduled for a later date to pick up your finished orthotics. A deposit will be required for your custom orthotics. The assessment fee is $95 plus fax. This fee will be waived should you choose to proceed with a custom-made foot orthotic order within 90 days of your assessment.
Prescription
We do not require a prescription for a pedorthic assessment; however, most insurance plans require a prescription. Please request that your medical professional provide a prescription detailing the diagnosis and treatment suggested. If you do not have a prescription by your assessment we can assist with this process.
*If it is decided that a different treatment will best suit your needs (ex. off-the-shelf arch supports or footwear, bracing, referral to other health care professionals) the process may vary from that listed above.
