“My feet were damaged by arthritis, and I have seen numerous podiatrists and purchased several different custom orthotics. After a few years of relative stability, my pain suddenly flared up and I could not walk without limping.”

“After 7 years (!!!), my orthotics are still going strong and supporting me during the day, when I hike, and when I exercise. I bought 2 pairs and swap them out every other day.”

“I was suffering with severe foot pain and not able to walk far. I had seen quite a few podiatrists and another pedorthist, but no one was able to give me orthotics which would allow me to walk far. I can now walk 5+ miles per day with zero pain.”

“I went to Russell when I had some knee issues. He spoke about firmness and support and encouraged me to purchase a more supportive shoe. With his ‘healthy foot’ help, I am now having no knee pain and am back to running in my late 50’s with no pain at all.”

“Dr. Russell is amazing! My feet were bothering me a lot and because I’m a makeup artist and am always standing I really needed help — and I love my orthotics! I feel like I’m walking on air. He’s so professional, smart and follows up!”

“I learned so much about my stance during the exam with Russell. It was no wonder my feet were often hurting. Now, a month later, I love wearing these orthotics and my feet are so much more comfortable and balanced-feeling!”

“I came across Russell Pate from The Shoe Doctor when I was looking for custom insoles. He is awesome. He scans the feet with his machine and tells the red zones or pain points. If anyone is looking to get insoles for foot pain, he is the one we can rely upon confidently.”
