Are you looking for a trusted pediatric podiatrist in New Jersey?
Children's feet have a higher risk of deformity and injury than adults as their bones are still soft. Badly fitted socks and footwear may lead to deformities. Bio-mechanical and postural abnormalities can cause pain from your child’s knees or legs to travel upward, i.e., the back. In addition to growth and footwear, significant weight gain can create problems pertaining to your child's feet as well.
We have a variety of kids' shoes in modern styles and colors.
If you are concerned with your child’s feet, it is important to seek professional advice right away. It is better to play it safe than to discover too late that treatment was required. Need medical assistance? Don't worry; Podiatry Center of New Jersey is here to help.
I love treating children because their feet are still growing. I can correct most underlying issues with orthotics to avoid the need for surgery in adulthood.

Understanding the Importance of Pediatric Podiatry Services
Foot pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal problems between the ages of 10 and 13. Foot disability and impairments can persist into adulthood as well. That is why spotting serious joint pains (e.g., juvenile arthritis) early is of the utmost importance. By seeking pediatric podiatry services, children can avoid these lower body issues in adulthood and lead healthy and active lifestyles.

Parents Love Podiatry Center of New Jersey

I chose them because they're in network of my health insurance and I had to make an appointment for my son. They took good care of my son (problem with a big toe) and hopefully the issue will be resolved. Professional and friendly staff.

My daughter, who was 2 years old at the time, was not walking straight and the situation was getting so bad that we gave Tylenol several days a week to alleviate the nightly knee pain.
Dr. Samofal knew the issue instantly and was very good in explaining it to my wife and I. He said since we caught the problem early, we can fix it without any surgery. That was great news. Dr. Samofal gave us orthotics and showed us exercises to do. My daughter is 4 now and we have seen Dr. Samofal several times since the first visit. Her problem is getting better and she no longer has any knee pain. Dr. Samofal has been instrumental and pleasant throughout the entire time. His staff is great too. I highly recommend the Podiatry Center of New Jersey!
