Scheduling

The present focus of the clinical gait laboratory is on detailed assessment of children with neurological disorders. Appropriate referrals include children with cerebral palsy, myelomenigocele, and other neuromuscular conditions that cause significant impediment to gait and who are being considered for change in treatment (e.g. surgery, therapy, or orthotics). The child must be cooperative in all modes of testing for a valid evaluation to be conducted.
Data collection generally takes between two to three hours. After the motion data is processed, it is combined with the physical examination and interpreted by the team. The final report will be available to the referring physician within four to five weeks. It is therefore imperative that the gait analysis be requested and scheduled with adequate time before any intervention is scheduled.
​
New referrals may be made for children up to age 18.

What Our FAMILIES Are Saying

Cesia's Story

"
Chris Church did an outstanding job with our son during the gait analysis. We are looking forward to getting
these results to aid us in directing future care "
​
"
Daveda Taylor was the PT who worked with our daughter. She was just wonderful. She took her time, made adjustments when necessary, sang with our daughter, and was very patient. Because of Daveda, it
was a very good experience and we got further along in the test then we did the prior two times. I was very impressed with Daveda's knowledge and ability to work with our daughter."

"Faithe is an asset to the team here. She is friendly, thorough, patient, kind and obviously skilled in her expertise.."
