Is my visit covered by MSP?

Does Vancouver Foot & Ankle Clinic offer orthotics?

Yes. We will perform a comprehensive gait evaluation and biomechanical exam in conjunction to casting your foot to obtain an accurate mold of your feet. Custom foot orthotics will then be fabricated to best suit your needs.  We make a physical cast of your feet and our process of fabricating orthotics is hand made from start to finish.

Do you manage patients with diabetes?
