I once went to a MD for my flat feet. Basically, they kill me. I can only buy one brand of shoes (brooks) and they still ache at the end of the day. All the doc did was give me those ortho pad things, and they felt to wierd for me to continue to wear them. He didn't mention anything about a DPM

I had flat feet too, and went to a chiropracter. But that was high school soccer, and he was our athletic trainer. He never mentioned a DPM either, which i think is strange now. He was also the trainer for the Chicago Fire, so I'm assuming he's trained a bit more in the lower extremity.
