There to care for feet

MOBILITY, comfort and well-being can all be affected by foot conditions or ill-fitting and uncomfortable footwear.
The aim at Extra Depth Footwear is to provide most comfortable, stylish footwear that includes the correct width, depth or if required adjustments and alterations to ensure the perfect fit.
It is important that shoes for a diabetic foot are soft and without seams and stitching on the inside, as this will eliminate pressure and rubbing.
There are beautiful shoes and sandals from Germany, England and America all medical grade with different widths and depths to fit everyone.
Extra Depth Footwear also keeps a range of adjustable comfort slippers or ”house shoes’’ and a range of seamless socks which are ideal for diabetic and arthritic feet.
Extra Depth Footwear manager Heather Jennings is a certified retail pedorthist and together with orthotist Kristin McCann they provide personal fitting experiences for all customers. Appointments are advised for prompt service.
Extra Depth Footwear has close working relationships with podiatrists, surgeons and health care professionals. They are also registered medical grade footwear providers for the Department of Veterans Affairs, NDIS, SWEP, TAC and Work Cover.
Extra Depth Footwear provides clinics to Ballarat every month and Warrnambool every three months where orthotists are made available for professional consultation.
Call 5224 2216 to speak to Heather or Kristin at Extra Depth Footwear for an appointment. Alternatively, visit the website www.geelongfootwear.com.au for more details on services.
