Children’s bodies are constantly growing, and their musculoskeletal system develops in unique ways. This means their podiatric needs differ from those of adults, requiring specialized assessment and treatment.
Our Podiatrist Nicholas Roth provides tailored care to diagnose and manage a wide range of paediatric foot conditions, ensuring the best support for healthy development. Nicholas has extensive experience in assessing, diagnosing, and treating a wide range of paediatric-specific podiatry conditions.
Common paediatric podiatry conditions Nicholas manages include:
- Flat feet
- In-toeing and out-toeing
- Growing pains
- Heel pain (Sever’s disease)
- Gait abnormalities
- Growing pains
- Sports-related injuries
- And More!
He understand the importance of early intervention and work closely with families and other paediatric professionals to ensure the best outcomes for each child.
By combining expert knowledge with a compassionate approach, he strives to keep young feet healthy, active and pain free – helping children move with confidence as they grow.
