Share Your Shoes: Helping Those in Need

When you put on your shoes this morning, did you stop to think about it? Chances are, the answer is no. We put on shoes every day without a second thought. Now, imagine having shoes that are so worn and tattered that they’re barely holding together. Or having no shoes at all. These are the experiences of veterans who don’t have access to the resources to help them live comfortable lives and of the women and children who flee their violent environments and lack the time to pack the even the essentials.

As experts in podiatry, Drs. Joel Brook, Arroyo, and McClurkin of Dallas Podiatry Works, know how important a pair of shoes is to the health of your feet. They are proud and honored to be working with the Genesis Women’s Shelter and the local VA in the Share Your Shoes Program.

Do you want the chance to make a difference in your community? It’s amazing how such a seemingly simple gesture as donating a pair of unneeded shoes can mean the world to someone.

Raid your closets! Find that pair of sneakers or sandals that never gets worn and take part in Share Your Shoes. Get your entire family involved! Help your kids sort through the shoes they never wear and give them the opportunity to help those in need.

New and used shoes will be collected, sorted, and distributed to the Genesis Women’s Shelter and to veterans in need through the VA. If you have any questions about the Share Your Shoes program, connect with us online.

The doctor has great “bedside manners” when talking to patients. Great staff and comfortable atmosphere.

The staff at Dallas Podiatry Works could not have been more courteous, helpful, and professional in doing their job. They made me feel comfortable when I was there, which is certainly appreciated. They answered all the questions that I had and just made each visit the most pleasurable that it could be. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing this type of foot care.

I would highly recommend Dr. Brook to anyone with foot problems–especially problems that stump other podiatrists. He really is very caring and very knowledgeable.

Dr. Joel Brook and the staff were nice and helpful. Though I was a new patient, I got right in as soon as they were open in my preferred location. They diagnosed the problem and provided medicines along with a perfect gel bandage so I could keep exercising while my toes healed. My toes already hurt less and look a little better each day. If I have future issues, I will be a repeat customer. Here’s hoping I don’t, but at least I know my feet are in good hands.

I visited this office for an ingrown toe nail a few years ago. After seeing another doctor, who made it worse, he referred me to Dallas Podiatry Works. The doctor there was able to fix my problem. I’m not great with reviews, all I can tell you is that this doctor and staff will have you up and running or doing whatever it is you do in no time. You will be in great hands. You’d be a fool not to use this doctor. Now its time to visit him again for the other toe.
