What a orthotics expert witness is asked to determine

- the orthotic device required for the recorded functional presentation.
- whether fitting, review and replacement were appropriate.
- whether gait, skin integrity and safety issues were addressed.
- the expected lifespan and cost of orthotic provision.
- how orthotic intervention sits within the wider rehabilitation programme.
Practitioners are listed across all four UK nations, with listings searchable by location.
