5/5
I called Dr. Howard Levy at Kanata North Orthotics after spending a great deal of time and money at another foot and orthotics business in Kanata for two issues that I am having with my feet - a callus and a plantar wart. Howard gave me an appointment within a few days of my call, and took care of the plantar wart with a needling technique that required one treatment for the wart to disappear. I'm glad that I switched to Howard before I went to the other foot and orthotics business in Kanata for what would have been the fifth treatment @$85 a pop, with no visible improvement that I noticed. In fact, I think that the wart was getting bigger. The callus that the other business was treating also required me returning to them on a regular basis to shave the callus with a scalpel, with no plan in place to address a permanent solution. When Howard first looked at the callus, he quickly identified that one of my legs is slightly longer than the other, and that this was resulting in a pinch-point on my foot where the callus was growing. He's going to make a brace that I will wear for 12 weeks (30 minutes a day) to realign the foot and an orthotic to address the offset leg. In the mean time, he gave me a raise (insert) for my one shoe to eliminate the pinch-point where the callus is. I'm already noticing a difference, Howard explains everything very well, including cost, treatment options, likelihood of success and my preferences. His 40+ years of experience is very evident and I feel much more confident in Howard than elsewhere. I highly recommend this business and Dr. Levy.
