Boroditsky Alan D, MD

I went to him for foot pain from skiing. He dissmissed the foot beds made for me by prior practitioners. His very expensive new footbeds, not only for my ski boots, but regular footwear as well, were no better than the footbeds made by a quality boot fitter.
He has admitted that he can’t help, after suggesting that the pain may only appear to not have abated.
I suppose, when you only have a hammer. Everything looks like a nail.
Dr. Boroditsky’s hammer is a footbed. And he profits quite handsomely from it.

He’s nice, friendly, the place is clean and professional, but I wouldn’t go back because the total cost of the custom orthotics were more expensive than other places.
In the past I went to a retail store to get my orthotics so this time I figured I’d go to a legit doctor since my health benefits would pay for it. But I don’t think there was much difference in the quality in examining my foot issues or insight/​recommendations he provided. I think the quality was even less actually, plus the cost was high.
I was told the initial consultation was $ 137 and I thought, sure no problem, that is covered by my health benefits. But after my first visit, I was actually invoiced $ 282 due to the additional cost of $ 145 for the 3D foot scan, which was over my health benefit limit. Follow up appointments to fit the orthotics and check-​up are free though.
The orthotics cost $ 505, which was over my $ 400 health benefit limit. So in the end I had to pay $ 102 + $ 105 out of pocket :(
I’ve seen other websites that quote $ 400 for orthotics, including foot scans so I’d recommend shopping around to find one that fits your health insurance plan.
