Pediatric/orthopedic corrective shoes?
Anyone know a Dr that specializes in pediatric orthopedics that provides shoes or braces for correcting foot conditions? My daughter has metatarsus adductus (intoeing) and I took her to Hamad but they put a cast on her that came off the same day. I was hoping some Dr here would have these shoes you can put on them instead because it would be much more conventient and effective in my opinion. I know they do make shoes for this condition but wonder if they are available in Qatar.
This is the job of a Orthotist. Take referral from Hamad Hospital Pedriatitian and go to Prosthetic and Orthotic department located in Rumaila Hospital. Good Luck.
there was Dr. Stanely Johns from UK Pediatric orthopedic surgeon on Al-Ahli hospital on visit 2 weeks back.. he normally visits 2-3 times in a year. heard that his next visit will be on may-june..
