Let customers speak for us
I have been using them for a few weeks and find them effective and comfortable
The metatarsal pads are a real game changer! Very simply solved a problem I have been grappling with for years.
These are great! Really reduce the knucle rubbing and allow comfortable taping. Wish I'd found them sooner!!
These are just like the ones the podiatrist used. They’re comfortable and easy to use.
These pads are thick and it is really important to get them in the right place on the shoe insert. Repositioning or trim if necessary.
Great quality products.
These pads really helped, made my shoes a lot more comfortable.
Great customer service, great products.
Very
Comfortable, and fit perfectly in my shoes
I'm a retired physician and unfortunately got very severe metatarsalgia after increasing walking after hip replacement. I tried many different met pads and other products from Amazon , as well as seeing my local podiatrist who gave me some customer orthotics which did not help on any of my pain. 🙄 The only thing that helped me was Dr Gaffney's very thick and adjustable metatarsal pads. Thank you very much for assisting me and reducing this very painful condition ! They are definitely the best pads out there after trying several.
Great quality and customer service

Relieved pressure and pain on my corn on the tip of my toe!

Crossover Toe Treatment: a Non-Surgical Guide
Crossover toe happens when an unstable ligament lets one toe drift over its neighbor. Left unsupported, it rubs, stiffens, and becomes harder to correct. The right fix — spacer, straightener, or buddy splint — depends on how far the toe has drifted and whether it's still flexible. This guide helps you choose.
