Need Pediplast Doctor

Was this a podiatrist or orthopedist?
If not, try one of them.
Maybe even a physical therapist?
Or try finding an online source.
Or go back to the doctor and tell hime the problem and ask him to order it.

Hi,

A friend of mine has a foot problem. He asked his doctor for
pediplast. His doctor gave him a prescription saying "oh you can get
this anywhere." Trouble is you can't get it anywhere. It's hard to
find and the places that have it only sell to doctors. Does anyone
have any experience with pediplast?

We could use advice about how to find a place that will sell it to
someone with just a prescription or a doctor who would proxy the
purchase. Some other solution for getting pediplast to the patient
would be OK too. We are located in the Washington DC Metro area

Thanks,
BP

Yeah, I found it readily available on the Internet. (Believe me, I am an expert
in foot paraphernalia.) Here's one place. And thanks for the lead... looks
like something I might look into.

Thanks. By orthopedist do you mean orthopedic surgon?

Even the online sources are very scarce and I have yet to find one
that will sell to a consumer with a prescription. They sell only if
you have a DEA license.

Yes.
I know one in the DC area who specializes in feet & ankles, maybe you can
find one like that.

Fine with me.
Several of my doctors, though not my orthopedist or podiatrist, are women.
Best wishes.
