Can anyone give me a recommendation for a pediatric podiatrist?
Recently, one of DD's toes has begun to look raised...almost like it's being squished upwards above the other toes ( if that makes any sense). I want to take her to a specialist to have it looked at. Can anyone recommend a good one?

I don't know a pediatric podiatrist but I do have a toe like that on my own foot..from my experience it hasn't been painful. my dd has it now too..it was hereditary. Does anyone in your family have a toe like that? I hope this eases your mind

Thanks for your reply :) I don't know of anyone in my family that has toes like that but honestly, it doesn't bother me. I just want to make sure that it does not affect her walking.

Ask your pediatrician.
They will have someone in the area.
DS has funny toes (overlapping).
The ped pointed it out... and then I looked at DH toes. His overlap too & I never noticed it! His own brother never noticed it (I pointed it it out at a family dinner).
The ped said that I can go for a brace... but DH was a soccer captain & has no issues with his toes... so I'm not doing anything.
Ds, at 3.5 can EASILY outrun me & his 7 year old soccer star cousin. Maybe it's an advantage?? lol

My DS had the same thing. I had 2 bunion surgeries years ago so I used the same podiatrist for my DS. Dr. Kornfeld, I think he is in Manhasset
http://www.drrobertkornfeld.com/ My DS has been wearing orthotics and we tape his toes. Been going to the podiatrist since he was under 2 and is now 5 and his toes are looking much better. Still have a way to go, but a big improvement. I cannot recommend Dr. Kornfeld highly enough!
