I'm looking for a doctor in the lexington area. I'm a little concerned because my currrent doctor suggested that I find a safer sport than climbing last visit....

So anyway, I want to find a doctor that will not try to convince me that gentle strolls in the park are what I should be happy with.

My particular issue at the moment is back pain, but it all seems to stem from super messed up feet, and a not insignifigant leg length discrepency. So I'm probably looking for some kind of orthopedist that specializes in feet/back problems, or some kind of guy that specializes in gait analaysis and the mechanics of walking/running. I'm not really sure what its called, or if it exists in lexington, but any good sports medicine orthpedic type doctor would probably do.

Dr. Whiner suggested you suck it up.


Seriously, all I can suggest is a great general doc. Sorry.

a strong core goes a long way toward helping with back problems.

I'd insert a fat joke here, but that'd be spreading 2nd and 3rd hand information. It has already been established on this forum that I don't play that way.

I'd stop by Johns' Run Walk Shop and ask there. They'd probably be able to point you in the right direction. Just a guess though.

The guy at John's is a licensed pedorthist. He specializes in those problems.
