Clubfoot is a Treatable Condition
Clubfoot is a treatable childhood condition that requires orthopedic intervention. A child’s foot is typically twisted inward and down. It’s important to consult an orthopaedic surgeon as early as possible. We provide one-on-one, personalized support for children with clubfoot, as well as their families. We have experience in the very latest and proven treatment techniques, and most children go on to wear regular shoes, take part in sports and lead full, active lives. Learn more about our treatments for clubfoot.
