My 13 year old has been complaining that her toes hurt almost every night, usually after playing tennis. I assumed her shoes were small, but a week after replacing her shoe collection with the next size up she was still complaining. One night she begged me to make a dr appointment to figure out what was wrong with her toes. I called Dunn Foot & Ankle since Brian Dunn came recommended by many friends. I called on a Friday and they were able to squeeze her in for an appointment the next Monday! Considering how hard it is to get doctor appointments these days that alone is worth 5 stars.
We showed up a few minutes early for our 11:10am appt and saw Dr. Dunn within promptly. She explained her toe issues and he took a look at her feet and immediately knew what the issue was- a combination of flat feet, bunions and a lot of tennis! Unfortunately, she had inherited my flat feet issues. Fortunately, he had a solution. He fit her for custom orthotics and showed me a toe spacer to buy on amazon that she could wear when playing tennis. The orthotics will take 3 weeks to arrive, but she tried the toe spacer at tennis tonight and said they already feel much better! I've actually been meaning to get custom orthotics for my flat feet myself so he even squeezed me in right after my daughter.
I look forward to picking up our orthotics in a few weeks and had an amazing experience. I can see why Dr. Dunn has so many fans! read more
