Community Work Campbell Clinic Provides Free Foot Care at Annual Soles4souls Event Community Q

More than 200 members of the Memphis community received free foot and nail care from Campbell Clinic physicians and Campbell Foundation volunteers as part of the orthopaedic clinic's annual Soles4Souls event, held at the Memphis Union Mission's Opportunity Center. Soles4Souls is an annual event providing foot care, shoes and socks to the community's homeless population. The event is part of the Our Hearts to Your Soles program, a nonprofit with the mission of providing those less fortunate with shoes and free foot examinations. This program was founded in 2004 by then high school student, Matthew Conti, with the help of his father Dr. Stephen Conti, an orthopaedic surgeon at Allegheny General Hospital near Pittsburgh. Supporters of the program believe that proper foot health is an essential part of everyday life that should be available to all, as it is important to an overall health maintenance program. Established in 1946, The Campbell Foundation is affiliated with Campbell Clinic Orthopaedics in Memphis, Tennessee. A scientific and charitable trust, The Campbell Foundation was founded by Dr. Willis C. Campbell’s partners to continue his commitment to the advancement of orthopaedic medicine. The Campbell Foundation receives support from grateful patients, physicians, resident and fellow alumni, staff, trustees, corporations, and friends in the community.

At this year’s event, foot and ankle physicians from Campbell Clinic provided on-site foot care while shoes were generously provided by Red Wing Shoes. Additional support was provided by The Campbell Foundation and its Clinical Fellows, Orthopaedic Residents, Research Nurses and employees; Campbell Clinic Physician Assistants and the Campbell Clinic Cast Room Supervisor; and local medical students. Employees from Campbell Clinic and The Campbell Foundation donated nearly 400 pairs of socks for this year’s effort.

Campbell Clinic has been participating in this effort for twelve years, holding the event each November during the week of Thanksgiving.
