Dr. Grace Torres-hodges answered

Specializes in Podiatry

See the podiatrist: After examination, a podiatrist would be able to assess the type of shoes and accommodation that would provide support and would be comfortable. They may dispense it themselves or send you to an orthotist with the proper prescription.
