Kathleen replied to Chad Moll's discussion what type of doctor?" Sometimes , this pf is just so depressing. I am still working and limited time now with pain. Mom has developed it with her high arches. Husband has a fracture not healing right. Tired of doctors bad advise, that they charge for. Sorry for…"
Caroline Hall replied to Chad Moll's discussion what type of doctor?"An orthopedist who specializes in feet and ankles could also help. I've been to both a podiatrist and the ortho in the past whrn I've had PF (I get it with each knee replacement I've had). This current round (#3), the podiatrist…"
