Feet
Troublesome feet with children can cause stress for parents. At Acorn, we aim to ease parents’ concerns. Our podiatrists can help ease aches, pains and concerns for children with previous expertise in treating paediatric feet, providing professional advice and assistance. We can offer an array of paediatric podiatry assistance such as help with stubborn/troublesome verrucae to lower limb and postural complaints from flat feet to in-toe gait.
