Flatfoot.org is an independent educational resource on flatfoot, from the normal flexible flat foot of childhood to rigid deformity and reconstructive surgery. Every clinical page is written and reviewed by a practising pediatric orthopedic consultant.
Clinical content is authored and medically reviewed by Dr. Mutasem Aldhoon, Pediatric Orthopedic Consultant at Queen Rania Children's Hospital, King Hussein Medical City, Amman, with dual UK training, MRCSed and GMC registration.
Guidance reflects peer-reviewed orthopedic literature and established surgical practice. Where evidence is limited or contested — as it is for orthoses in asymptomatic children — we say so plainly instead of overstating benefit.
Every clinical page carries a medically-reviewed byline and a review date. Pages are re-reviewed when practice changes, and corrections are made promptly when an error is identified.
Flatfoot.org does not provide diagnosis or individual treatment advice, does not sell products, and carries no advertising. It is educational only and does not replace an in-person consultation.
