Start the School Year on the Right Foot

The Importance of Pediatric Podiatry

As summer winds down and back-to-school season approaches, it’s the perfect time to make your child’s foot health a priority. At Dr. Jon Williams’ Camarillo podiatry office, we specialize in pediatric care to ensure children start the school year comfortably, confidently, and free from foot or ankle pain.

Why Pediatric Podiatry Matters

Children’s feet grow and change rapidly. If left unaddressed, small foot or ankle issues can lead to bigger problems down the road. From flat feet and heel pain to gait abnormalities and sports injuries, pediatric podiatry helps identify concerns early and provides solutions that support healthy development. Addressing foot pain now can improve your child’s posture, mobility, and confidence both in and out of the classroom.

The Right Shoes for the School Year

One of the most important decisions you can make before school starts is choosing the right shoes. Ill-fitting or unsupportive shoes can lead to discomfort, fatigue, and even long-term structural issues. Dr. Williams offers expert advice on shoe selection, ensuring proper fit, support, and durability for growing feet.

Support for Active Kids

If your child is involved in sports, dance, or other extracurricular activities, their feet are under even more stress. Dr. Williams provides evaluations to identify any risk factors for injury and can fit custom orthotics when needed to support performance and prevent strain.

Compassionate, Kid-Friendly Care

With over 30 years of experience, Dr. Jon Williams is known for his gentle, compassionate approach. He takes the time to educate both children and parents, creating a comfortable, reassuring experience.

This school year, make sure your child starts strong. Schedule a pediatric foot check-up with Dr. Jon Williams—Camarillo’s trusted name in pediatric podiatry—and help your child step into the year with comfort and confidence.
