What to expect when seeing a Pedorthist:

• A thorough hands on assessment including: lower limb muscle testing, range of motion, functional tests and a biomechanical evaluation
• A gait analysis (watching you walk)
• Education with regard to your pain and the management of it
• Recommendations for foot orthotics, footwear and activities

For your appointment:

• Wear loose fitting pants or shorts for your appointment
  
• Bring or wear the shoes you wear most often (Work footwear, exercise or walking footwear)
  
• Please note that your visit to Mike Forgrave & Associates (Foot by Foot Inc) is not covered by OHIP.  It is the responsibility of the patient to determine insurance company requirements for reimbursement.
  
• Often times, your extended health carrier (usually through work), may cover some or all of the cost of our services.  If this is a WSIB, Social Services, or Motor Vehicle Accident Injury Claim, please bring your claim number and case worker's name with phone number.  If this is a DVA Claim, please bring patient info number.
  
• Bring your doctor's prescription or referral note.  Usually, if your coverage is through an extended healthcare insurance plan, there will be a need to have a doctor's prescription.  This documentation should be in our possession before you are fitting for your orthotics.
  
• Please call the clinic you wish to be seen at and book an appointment (see Locations for the phone numbers)
