Prescription Writing to Ensure Comfort and Relief for your Patients is only

3 Easy Steps away

1Diagnosis

Tell us what is wrong with your patient’s feet. As a certified pedorthist who has studied the anatomy of the human foot for many years, Frank speaks your language when it comes to foot care. Also, let us know what you believe is the source of the condition you are describing. For instance, if a patient’s Hammer Toes were caused by Neuropathy resulting from Diabetes, let Frank Giannino know so that he can be sure that his solution includes a high wide toe box and extra soft padding.

 

2Goals

Tell us your goals for your patient. You may be writing a prescription for something to absorb shock to the heel for your patient with Heel Spurs, but if you believe the spurs were caused by excessive weight and your ultimate goal for the patient is weight loss through diet and exercise, Frank should know that too. We can provide support by offering foot wear that encourages calisthenics and body conditioning.

 

3Suggestions

While Frank & staff know close to everything about footwear solutions, we will never know as much about your patient as you do. If you have special suggestions that might help us to achieve optimal results, please don’t hesitate to let us know. For instance, you may want to suggest that we offer a patient suffering from arthritis Velcro fasteners instead of laceup options.

foot problem — Frank can provide effective solutions through orthotics, custom footwear and/or footwear modification.

When Written Words Are Not Enough
While prescriptions are always required for your
patients, both to authorize treatment and to
secure cost reimbursement (private insurance
companies, HMOs, Worker’s Compensation,
Medicare and government assistance programs
all require a written prescription before they can
provide coverage), Frank loves getting follow-up
phone calls concerning prescriptions. Remember,
pedorthists are not diagnosticians. They take their
direction from you, even in instances where they
can see what the problem is themselves. Effective
communication is guaranteed to benefit your
patient every time. And a patient who has been
well served by both his healthcare professional
and his pedorthist will recommend his foot care
team to others.

It Makes Perfect Sense
Over the last decade the field of Pedorthics has grown enormously and gained respect from consumers and
medical professionals alike. Most everyone agrees that writing a prescription for footwear makes perfect
sense. But the fact remains that the variety of available footwear and orthotic and in-shoe options are nearly
inexhaustible. Especially when the practicing pedorthist is as fervid as Frank Giannino, no prescription can ever
be too detailed.

Frank Giannino

Frank has made proper foot care his mission in life.
A career runner himself (he first ran across America
in 1979; the speed of his second crossing some 16
months later is listed in the Guinness Book of World
Records), he knows how important it is to take care
of one’s feet. Painful feet not only limit our ability to
enjoy the most basic activities in our daily lives, but
they can also cause injuries to the knees, hips, back,
shoulders, spine and other parts of our body.
Today’s orthotics and custom footwear options
make having pain-free feet possible for just about
everyone. Frank empowers his customers with this
knowledge. Frank’s Custom Shoe-Fitting is a wellknown
resource for running, walking and athletic
shoes, walking/hiking boots, work boots, children’s
shoes, and women’s dress/work footwear. A master
orthopedic technician, Frank creates foot molds for
each of his customers as part of the fitting process.
