Re: What type of Dr is best???? Orthopedic or Podiatrist??

Posted by BarbJ on 2/04/99
I would stick with an orthopedic dr. Having said that I am beginning to realize that while some drs., physical therapists, acupuncturists, etc. are better than others, none will give any further advice than you can get by reading and studying not only these messages but the reports and articles Scott has put together at the beginning of this site. Wonderful information and lots of help. I would try to get a doctor with, and I believe this is most important, an open mind--one who is willing to listen to what you have to say about some of the treatments you read about here and discuss what may actually be best for you. Finally, is there any way your company would transfer you to a job where you could get off your feet--at least until you can (hopefully) get rid of the pf? Best of luck to you--we understand your frustration and know the pain and have all felt many times like we don't know what else to do. Just never give up.
