Brookline, Mass (July 2014) – EvenKeel Podiatry, a practice, technology and health philosophy bringing a holistic approach to podiatric sports medicine, announces its advanced custom orthotics system allowing patients to obtain one hour custom foot orthotics and same day in office sneaker fitting.

It’s one way that EvenKeel Podiatry is providing cutting edge technology yet keeping its philosophy of old-fashioned caring values and continuing a 4 decades tradition of investing in positive patient outcomes.
Dr. Frank Santopietro, chief medical officer and lead podiatrist of EvenKeel Podiatry, brings 40 years of clinical experience in sports medicine and podiatric surgery to the EvenKeel practice and understands his patients’ needs, wants and embraces cutting edge technology.
“EvenKeel Orthotics are unlike any product in the marketplace,” says Dr. Frank Santopietro. “We use patented technology to create a unique, custom fit orthotic.”
EvenKeel’s proprietary algorithm configures the slopes and curves of an orthotic device based on anatomical and bio-mechanical information captured during the patient encounter. EvenKeel does not use a library system to match an orthotic device to a general foot type nor do they cast a foot in the traditional sense. By basing the structure of the orthotic device on an examination and scan of the foot the practitioner exerts more control over the shape of the device, delivering a product that doesn’t just match the shape of a patients’ foot, but provides the function that maximizes healing. It only fabricates a one-of-a-kind orthoses that are built to suit patients’ needs.
EvenKeel Orthotics are easy to prescribe, well tolerated by patients with minimal break in time, and easily adjusted. They are lightweight, made of a variety of combinations of semi-soft materials that mold easily, provide immediate fit and comfort while providing functional corrections to fit the patient needs. They are great for children, athletes and the elderly alike and they are especially suited to the diabetic foot.
