Hi everyone?

I have a pt who is only 2 yr old and was diagnosed with congenital TEV since birth.
She is currently been looked after by her paeditrician. Her doctor said the condition is mild and surgery and orthoses or splint will not be needed. However she been constantly walking on her toes due to ankle equinus and reduced hanstring flexibilty. She also has adducted forefoot and inverted hindfoot. I adviced them to do calves and hamstring m.m stretches and foot wear advices. Her concerned parents think their daughter might need orthotic therapy.
Now the issue here is their paeditrician think she does not need orthoses, should I in this case prescribe this young girl with a pair of gait plates? Can someone out there give me your expert advices? Thank you.
