I have 3 heel spurs on my left foot via x-ray by foot doctor. He mentioned getting a pair of hard leather inserts not the gel ones thru Good Feet store. I read some complaints on them.

Thank you for contacting us. IPFH cannot diagnose or recommend treatments on line. IPFH would always give this piece of advice: Listen to your doctor. He or she knows your medical history and has the knowledge and training to do what’s best for you. That said, if you have misgivings, or in your case, since you have read some negative reviews of the products he or she is recommending, you might let him or her know that. Medical professionals can do a better job for you if you are honest and engage in dialog with them. People often disregard their doctors’ advice and don’t ask questions or express concerns, and more often than not, that can lead to more serious problems. Perhaps if you inform your doctor of the negative reviews, and ask whether there are other options for inserts or other ways to address your condition, he or she can work with you to develop the best means of treatment. Another option is to seek a second opinion from another doctor or foot health professional. Whatever course you choose, we hope you will soon get what you need to effectively treat your condition.
