Sports medicine or podiatrist? Recs in MD

Anonymous
I've recently started running after a long hiatus (pregnancy + about a year post-partum). I'm having some pain in my knees. I know I need new running shoes, but I also wear orthotics for flat feet and I haven't gotten new ones in FAR too long. Should I see a podiatrist because the orthotics are for my feet, or a sports medicine doctor because the pain is not in my feet? Any good recommendations in Maryland (MoCo)?

Dr John Senatore.

I've seen podiatrists all over MD, DC, VA, and FL.

The only good podiatrist I have found who is competent to make really good orthotics is Dr Senatore in Baltimore, and it is well worth the drive. (and I am a Washingtonian). Trust me. I think he may even have his own brand or something.

OP here - thanks for the recommendation! So you think podiatrist is the way to go, rather than sports med?
