Does your child have foot pain or problems? Are your child's feet growing correctly?

As the father of 10 children, Dr Gibson has watched 10 children take their first step.  He understands the excitement and joy that comes with that great moment.  He also understands the concerns that come with complaints of pain.  He has seen foot pain or even leg pain in his children.  He also commonly sees many problems encountered by children the come into his office.

"Pain is never normal," notes Dr. Gibson. Even so-called "growing pains" usually have a cause and can often be treated.  Let this father help you with concerns about your child's feet.
