Knock-knees (genu valgum) - PiedRéseau Les Rivières
At PiedRéseau Les Rivières, we offer specialized care for individuals experiencing genu valgum, commonly known as knock-knees. This condition, often present from childhood, can lead to complications if not addressed. Our clinic is equipped to evaluate and manage this condition effectively, ensuring that patients receive tailored treatment plans that suit their specific needs.
Genu valgum can cause significant discomfort and mobility issues if left untreated. Our team is dedicated to diagnosing the severity of the condition and implementing appropriate interventions. We focus on both conservative treatments, such as foot orthotics and strengthening exercises, and, when necessary, referrals for surgical options to alleviate symptoms and improve quality of life.
We understand the importance of early intervention, particularly for children, to prevent the progression of knock-knees. Our clinic emphasizes the need for regular assessments and monitoring to ensure optimal outcomes for our patients. We are committed to providing a supportive environment where individuals can discuss their concerns and receive comprehensive care.
The PiedRéseau Les Rivières team includes Dr. Judith Roelly, podiatrist-owner, Dr. Stéphanie Poulin, podiatrist, and Dr. Lysianne Gaudreault, podiatrist. Together, they bring a wealth of knowledge and experience in podiatric care, ensuring that patients with genu valgum receive the best possible treatment tailored to their needs.
