Our goal is to help kids stay active, healthy, and pain free as they grow. If you are concerned about your child’s feet or walking, call us at (817) 573-3338 to schedule an appointment.
Common Pediatric Foot and Ankle Problems
Many children experience foot or ankle issues as they grow. Some are part of normal development, while others need treatment to prevent long-term problems. We evaluate and treat a variety of pediatric conditions, including:
- Flat feet or feet that roll inward
- In-toeing or out-toeing
- Heel pain and growth plate problems
- Sports-related injuries and fractures
- Toe walking or unusual gait patterns
- Toe deformities that may require pediatric surgery
If something about your child’s feet or walking doesn’t seem quite right, a professional evaluation can provide clarity and peace of mind.
A Gentle, Family-Centered Approach
We understand that medical visits can be stressful for children and parents. Our team takes time to explain what we are doing in simple, reassuring language, and we encourage parents to ask questions at every step.
During your child’s visit, we review their medical history, examine their feet and ankles, and observe how they stand and walk. We then discuss what we see and explain whether the issue is likely to improve with growth or if treatment is recommended.
Supporting Active, Healthy Kids
Whether your child loves sports, prefers playground time, or is just starting to walk, healthy feet and ankles make a big difference. We work with families to reduce pain, prevent injuries, and support confident movement at every age.
If your child complains of foot or ankle pain, seems to tire easily, or if you notice changes in the way they walk, don’t ignore it. Early evaluation often means simpler treatment and better long-term outcomes.
Treatment Options for Growing Feet
Many pediatric foot and ankle problems can be treated with simple, noninvasive measures. Depending on your child’s needs, the treatment plan may include:
- Shoe and activity recommendations
- Stretching and strengthening exercises
- Bracing or supports for certain conditions
- Monitoring over time with periodic checkups
When a structural problem is more severe or is not improving as expected, pediatric surgery may be considered. In those cases, we explain the procedure, expected recovery, and how surgery can help support healthy growth and function.

Meet Dr. Cornwell and our teamFrequently asked questions
Are flat feet or in-toeing in children always a problem?
Not always. Some foot and ankle differences are part of normal development, while others need treatment to prevent long-term problems. An evaluation can tell you which applies to your child.
What happens during my child’s visit?
We review your child’s medical history, examine their feet and ankles, and watch how they stand and walk. We then explain whether the issue is likely to improve with growth or whether treatment is recommended, and we encourage parents to ask questions throughout.
Will my child need surgery?
Many pediatric foot and ankle problems can be treated with simple, noninvasive measures such as shoe recommendations, exercises, or supports. Surgery may be considered only when a structural problem is more severe or is not improving as expected.
When should I bring my child in?
Schedule an evaluation if your child complains of foot or ankle pain, tires easily, or if you notice changes in the way they walk. Early evaluation often means simpler treatment.
