Orthopedist

OrthopedistAn orthopedist practices a branch of medicine concerned with the correction or prevention of deformities, disorders, or injuries of the skeleton and associated structures such as tendons and ligaments. An orthopedist often treats foot problems, but many other problems as well.

Orthopedists diagnose, treat, provide rehabilitation recommendations and help prevent problems that emanate from any of the aforesaid body structures. They care for patients of any age, including children born with musculoskeletal deformities and even older people with arthritis.

Many orthopedists specialize in certain aspects of the body. It is not unusual to find specialists in hands, feet and ankles, the spine, hip or knee. As specialists in foot problems they can either be orthopedic surgeons who have specialized in the treatment of foot and ankle disorders, or a podiatrist. A podiatrist is a doctor who has gone to a podiatry school to train in the treatment of foot and ankle disorders.

Orthopedic surgeons and podiatrists are footcare specialists that prescribe shoes to relieve sensitive areas of the foot; redistribute weight-bearing evenly; reduce pressure points; minimize shearing and friction; improve balance; speed post-surgical rehabilitation; and enhance ambulation, and at Right Way Custom Molded Shoes Inc. of Riviera Beach, Florida we are experts at making the best custom-molded shoes and delivering professional, thorough and courteous service.
