Private podiatrist for DS5

Just wondering if private podiatry is worth it?

I have a 5 year old with hypermobility, he won’t walk far and uses a pushchair. He has flat feet, physio gave us exercises but never mentioned podiatry.

would it be worth a visit?

Too young. Needs paeds referral.

Nonsense. Podiatry intervention is definitely recommended. Look up Hypermobility.org which has a lot of useful information, specifically for kids.
