Where can one get shoes to fit a foot deformed by Charcot Osteoarthropathy, apar!


Question:

Where can one get shoes to fit a foot deformed by Charcot Osteoarthropathy, apart from a hospital?

Someone I know has severe foot deformity due to Charcot arthropathy caused by diabetes. Hospital footwear clinics have long waiting lists and he is desperate for some shoes. Does anyone know any shops/ companies that specialise in making shoes and slippers for large/deformed feet?


Answers:

Depending on where you are, see if there is an orthotics company near by. In the US, I recommend Hanger.
