ORTHOP Walk with Science Introduction
Understanding our DNA
Our passion for shoe making started with our founder Jose Antonio
Carvalho in the orthopedic industry in ***9, when he started taking
care of Hansen disease patients who needed special care with their
lower limb. It was when he saw the importance of the collective
professional skills and knowledge on biomechanics, health and
shoemaking to rightly cater the needs of the patients.
He was one of the founders of the Brazilian Technical Orthopedic
Association and one of the most recognized professionals in the
Brazilian orthopedic industry. It was some time after the health
care system got the Hansen disease under control, he began applying
his knowledge on benefit of the diabetics.
After some time, because of the quality of his work in making shoes
for his own patients with diabetic and rheumatic foot, many
orthopedic shops and professionals throughout the country began
asking him to produce shoes for their customers.
Therefore, in ***0 he decided to inaugurate a shoe manufacturing
plant to cope with the increasing demand, thats how the first
Brazilian diabetic shoe manufacturer ORTHOP was born.
The company today not only benefit from his expertise but also from
his sons, Jose Marcelo Carvalho, who spent his childhood working
and learning with his father at the orthopedic clinic. Jose Marcelo
graduated in Physical Therapy, earned a Orthesist and Prothesist
degree with the prestigious Universidade Don Bosco in the Dominican
Republic and a post graduation degree with the Universidade
Paulista de Medicina in So Paulo.
With this very unique DNA of complementary professional
competencies we have been not only servicing orthopedic shops, but
also expanded our business to supply therapeutic shoes for
non-profit health institution and hospitals in Brazil and in Latin
America.
We are very much passionate about making good products. We take
care of the raw material, control every production step and employ
just highly skilled workforce to make sure we deliver every shoe
with maximum care, because we know how important our product is for
the health of insensible foot. Every feature of our product is an
answer for a potential threat to prevent the foot from ulcers,
attrition, high temperature and excessive plantar pressure.
We invite our customers to walk with science because we are
not a shoemaker we are shoe solution company.
