Meet Josephine in Liberia
Josephine’s bilateral clubfoot was diagnosed before she was born, and her family in Liberia hoped to find treatment for her. She had received previous treatments elsewhere, but unfortunately they did not completely correct her feet. Josephine was later evaluated at a miraclefeet-supported clinic in coordination with our Liberia partner, FACORC, when she was almost 6 years old. With a series of casts and a tenotomy - a minor surgical technique that is part of the Ponseti method of treatment - her feet have been gradually corrected.
miraclefeet has helped support treatment for over 11,000 children like Josephine. With your help, we can reach more.
