Before you agree to another foot surgery, make sure you understand why the first one didn’t give you the result you expected.

Persistent pain, a returning deformity, concerns about scarring, or simply feeling that something isn’t right are all reasons to have a conversation with an experienced foot surgeon.

A second opinion isn’t about criticizing your first surgeon. It’s about taking a fresh look at your foot, your history and your options before deciding what comes next.

Dr. Brad Schaeffer is an ABFAS board-certified foot surgeon with reconstructive surgical training and experience in advanced foot and ankle procedures.

You’ve already been through surgery once. It’s reasonable to want answers before deciding what happens next.

Surgical expertise matters. So does how you feel when you walk through the door.

“Dr. Brad Schaeffer and his team are impeccable. The service is amazing, the environment is very much welcoming. Everyone made me feel very comfortable.”
For someone considering foot surgery, coming in for a second opinion, or dealing with a disappointing result from a previous procedure, feeling heard and comfortable matters.

Central Park SOLE is intentionally not a high-volume practice. The practice limits its patient pool to provide more one-on-one time and develops personalized treatment plans based on each patient's individual needs and goals.

Come in. Tell us what happened. Tell us what still hurts or what concerns you. And let’s determine what your options are.

There's No One-Size-Fits-All Treatment for Flat Feet

Two people can have flat feet and need completely different treatments.

That's why we don't believe in cookie-cutter care.

At Central Park SOLE, we evaluate your foot structure, walking mechanics, tendon function, and overall alignment before recommending treatment.

Whether you need custom orthotics, regenerative medicine, advanced laser therapy, HyProCure®, or another solution, your care should be based on your diagnosis—not a standard protocol.

Because the best treatment is the one that's right for you.

Your Feet Might Be Trying to Tell You Something

Foot pain isn't something you should simply "push through."

If you notice that you're:

• Avoiding long walks
• Changing shoes more often
• Standing less because your feet hurt
• Skipping workouts due to pain

It's worth finding out why.

Flat feet can contribute to a variety of conditions that become more difficult to treat the longer they're ignored. Addressing the problem early can help keep you active and prevent additional issues down the road.

What Is HyProCure®?

If you've been told you have flexible flat feet and continue experiencing pain despite conservative treatment, you may have heard about HyProCure®.

This minimally invasive procedure is designed to stabilize the foot and improve alignment while preserving natural motion.

It's not the right solution for everyone, but for carefully selected patients, it may provide lasting relief and improved stability.

The best way to know if you're a candidate is through a comprehensive evaluation by a foot and ankle specialist.

Think Flat Feet Always Mean Surgery? Think Again.

One of the biggest misconceptions we hear is that flat feet automatically lead to surgery.

For many patients, conservative treatment is all that's needed to reduce pain and improve function.

Depending on your condition, treatment may include:

• Custom orthotics
• Regenerative medicine
• Remy Laser Therapy
• Activity modifications
• Physical therapy

Our goal is always to recommend the least invasive treatment that's appropriate for your condition.

Not All Orthotics Are Created Equal

Over-the-counter shoe inserts can provide temporary cushioning, but they aren't designed specifically for your feet.

Custom orthotics are created based on your unique foot structure and walking pattern. They help improve alignment, support your arches, and reduce the stress that flat feet place on your tendons and joints.

For many patients, custom orthotics become the foundation of long-term relief and help them stay active throughout New York City.

Did You Know?

You don't have to be born with flat feet.

Many adults develop flat feet over time due to tendon injuries, arthritis, repetitive stress, or simply years of walking and standing.

Common warning signs include:

✔ Arch or heel pain
✔ Swelling near the ankle
✔ Feet that tire easily
✔ Frequent ankle sprains
✔ Knee or back pain

If these symptoms sound familiar, it may be time for a comprehensive evaluation. Early treatment can often help prevent the condition from progressing.

Flat Feet Aren't Just About Your Arches

Many people think flat feet are simply a cosmetic issue. In reality, they can change the way your entire body moves.

When your arches don't provide proper support, your feet may roll inward with every step, placing additional stress on your ankles, knees, hips, and lower back. Over time, this can contribute to heel pain, tendon injuries, bunions, and chronic joint discomfort.

The good news? Flat feet don't always require surgery. The first step is understanding what's causing your pain and developing a treatment plan that's right for you.

At Central Park SOLE, we take a personalized approach to treating flat feet so you can get back to walking the city comfortably.
