I was very pleased with the orthotics and the shoes I purchased at Personal Best. Grace was very thorough when checking out the issues I was having with my feet. She took time to do her assessment and fittings. They feel very comfortable and now it feels so good to have proper support on my feet.

Grace is freakin awesome, she truly does go above and beyond. She took her time with my initial consultation such as examining my flat feet and taking notes on my gait. I came to her after reading these Google reviews and I’m happy to say that they are accurate 💪🏽.

What a difference in my level of pain with my new orthotics. My first pair had been made with a different provider. They used a scanner and this was sent out to a lab for the orthotics to be made. With my foot problems I had frequent trips back with minimal results.
Then I found Grace. A very detail evaluation and exam. She made the molds for my orthotics and she made my new orthotics. She diagnosed my issues and it certainly was reflected in the fit. I cannot believe that properly fitted orthotics could make that much difference in my pain level and comfort.
I highly recommend Presonal Best

Grace was very helpful and professional! I received new orthotics from her and she made sure to customize my orthotics to meet my needs. Grace reached out in a timely manner to see how my orthotics were feeling and offered to adjust if required. I will definitely return to her practice in the future. Thanks again Grace!

Following hip replacement surgery I was left with a leg discrepency. I was devastated. Grace was able to fit me with a shoe lift on my first visit. This really helped with my recovery. She worked deligently with my insurance companies and was very transparent with the whole process. I apreciated her follow up contact to make sure eveything was going well. I needed an adjustment to my orthotics which she was able to do right in her office. I will definitely be coming back for my orthopedic shoes and orthotics. Thank you Grace.

I came to Personal Best to address an issue with a problem with my arches. Grace was very professional and explained thoroughly my problem and how she could help. After my orthotics were made, I had two adjustment appointments to get the right fit and I am very happy with the results. I would highly recommend Personal Best. It is also important to note that it is essential to follow her instructions on how to adjust to your new fit and also it is vitally important if they do not fit well immediately to follow-up with additional appointments. It is worth it!

I was feeling a lot foot/shin/knee pains when I started out as a new runner. A friend recommended to go see Grace. She was professional, friendly and able to identify that I would benefit from having custom orthotics, I have been running pain free ever since. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

My husband and I both recently purchased new orthotics. I also bought shoes for work as well, they fit the orthotics perfectly and are very comfortable. We were very happy with the service and the whole process. Our feet are now feeling much better and pain free! Grace did a wonderful job and is very knowledgeable! I would highly recommend Personal Best Orthotics & footwear.

Grace is amazing! Honestly the best quality orthotics I have ever owned. Grace is very personable and her attention to detail is top drawer. This is the second year I have visited her for orthotics and compression socks. I will only see Grace for my need from now on. I highly recommend her as the other orthotics I have had in the past are substandard.

I am very content with the thorough assessment performed by Grace. She took her time with my initial consultation such as examining my feet (and my heel pain) and the way that I walked. She provided a solution for my heel pain which were customized orthotics. I was very pleased that my orthotics were completed within one week. I wear them daily and my heel pain has gradually improved!

Grace is exceptionally professional and knowledgeable. She made me my first pair of orthotics, which I didn’t even realize I needed. I was suffering leg and foot pain at work, but thought it was just from long hours of standing. After wearing my orthotics, I can stand for hours without any pain or discomfort. I am extremely happy with the service I received, and will definitely be a returning customer. Thank you, Grace!

Thank you to Grace for making my first pair of custom running orthotics. After dealing with a painful tendon issue in my foot I started to think my running days were over!! Six months later I finished the Detroit half marathon close to my PR and feel better than ever. Thank you!!

Grace examined my son’s feet and recommended an orthotic. He’s been wearing them in his running shoes and cleats for the past 2+ weeks. His feet and leg pain has reduced tremendously. He’s active and enjoying all sports again! Grace was amazing!
