Senior Care Path Summary
Ground Control Orthotics serves seniors who experience foot pain, arthritis, diabetes, and other lower-limb conditions that affect mobility and comfort at home. The clinic manufactures custom foot orthotics onsite in 3-7 business days using the Vertical Foot Alignment System, a state-of-the-art weight-bearing casting method that captures feet in their optimal position. The pedorthists offer comprehensive follow-up appointments at no additional cost to optimize each pair of orthotics.
The clinic provides custom orthopedic shoe modifications for seniors with irregular-shaped feet or pressure points, including rocker soles for arthritis, leg-length lifts, and special wedges for foot alignment issues. They also create custom sandals and shoes when standard footwear cannot accommodate a senior's needs.
Ground Control Orthotics is staffed by certified pedorthists with combined 25 years of experience. Yotam Friedman Raz is a certified pedorthist who studied at Dalhousie University with research experience in weight-bearing orthotics. Jennifer Saunders is a certified pedorthic technician and one of the few pedorthists in Nova Scotia skilled in orthopedic footwear modifications.
Services are covered by most private insurance plans, with direct billing available for eligible clients. Appointments can be booked online, by phone, or email, and home visits are offered in HRM and surrounding areas.</description> <parameter name="best_for">["Seniors with arthritis, diabetes, or plantar fasciitis needing pain relief and improved foot support", "Older adults with irregular-shaped feet or pressure points requiring custom footwear", "Seniors with leg-length discrepancies or drop foot needing corrective shoe modifications", "Older adults seeking in-clinic or home-based pedorthic care in Halifax, Dartmouth, Windsor, and Bridgewater"]

I've been a client for a few years with Yotam and I couldn't recommend him enough! He's been a great support, he always greets you with a smile and is happy to listen to your concerns to help you best. He is extremely knowledgeable, and will help you out with your orthotics. He takes the time to check in with you on how the orthotics work and is also happy to fix them up for you for a lower cost if needed! Very accommodating and will do his best to help you feel comfortable as you walk in your day to day life.

Yotam was super friendly, very effective as well. Made sure I was happy with my orthodics and checked in later to be extra sure.

I recently visited Yotam at the Dartmouth location. Before receiving my orthotics I had a lot of ankle/shin/leg pain which was having an impact on my daily outdoor walks. I am happy to say that after receiving my orthotics, I have absolutely no pain at all and I have been able to go back to increased distances without any issues or pain. Yotam was very knowledgeable and wonderful to deal with along with the office staff as well. I highly recommend Yotam if you are thinking you may benefit from orthotics. He’s the best!
