Dr. Mikkel Jarman is a pediatric podiatrist practicing in the Phoenix Metropolitan area of Gilbert, Arizona, who specializes in treating the unique needs of children’s feet. Common foot ailments in children include Sever’s disease (heel pain), flat feet, and ankle pain.
A pediatric podiatrist understands the complexities of a child’s or infant’s feet and ankles. At Pediatric Foot & Ankle, we specialize in both treating and preventing children’s foot ailments. Thanks to their rapid growth, a child’s foot care differs significantly from an adult’s.
We always recommend parents consult with a pediatric podiatry specialist to treat their child’s foot ailment. When left unchecked, pain and other issues can lead to your child developing hip and back problems and possibly obesity.
