Who is a Pedorthist?

A pedorthist is a lower limb expert who focuses on custom foot orthotics and proper footwear fitting. They assess, cast, and create personalized orthotics and make adjustments to shoes for optimal comfort.

The Pedorthic Association of Canada describes Canadian Certified Pedorthists – C. Ped (C) – as professionals with advanced training in foot orthotics and orthopedic footwear. They are knowledgeable about the structure and function of the lower limbs.

Certified by the College of Pedorthics of Canada, these pedorthists follow strict standards to ensure quality care. This includes regular evaluations and adherence to ethical guidelines.

Thanks to our on-site lab, most adjustments can be completed during your appointment.
