Toes On the Go

Dr. Michele Kraft is the best podiatrist I have every visited.
As one of the Santa Cruz Team in Training Marathon Coaches, I rely on Dr. Kraft’s support of our efforts to safely train our participants for Marathons and Half Marathons. She provides educational lectures and is more than willing to give her input. Most of the time, our folks choose to pay her a visit in her office and are always very excited about the results. She gives them input and tips about how to minimize the issues they may be experiencing or avoid sports injuries altogether.
I have gone to Dr. Kraft for numerous issues related to racewalking and running. She has helped by advising on my shoes and helping to customize my inserts. She has also been helpful in providing exercise recommendations to strengthen and avoid a return of the issue.
As an athlete herself, I can count on her to understand that I want to work through issues if possible. But, I know if she really needs me to stop, she will say so — and I will.
