Bumrungrad Hospital has an Orthopedic Clinic. They are located on Sukhumvit Road about a 10 minute walk from the Nana Skytrain. You can also get dental work done there and just about anything.

Other hospitals may be cheaper than Bumrungrad (Bumrungrad is pretty fancy looking;) here is a link for some other hospitals.

If it is something simple there are cheap street cobblers who can work under your directions, if you have a sample maybe they can duplicate it.
One custom made shoe and boots place is located near the Asoke Skytrain stop.

Do you or don't you buy from children. It is a hard thing to decide. At first I didn't buy anything from children. Then I found myself doing so.
I do know that parents go to the pawnbrokers to raise money for school uniforms at the start of the school year. On the other hand are these child sellers selling for their parents or someone else.
Tough decision.

When you go into some stores or places you are required to remove your shoes, you just take them off and leave them at the front door, if its a busy place you may loose your shoes in amongst the other, but there allway there some where.
So just repect there customs and ways and you will have a great time of it
Newcomers to Thailand are sometimes shocked when Thais convey bad news, such as the death of a parent, with their faces wreathed in broad smiles. For Thais, showing a smiling face to other people, no matter what your personal problems, is a basic kindness and a mark of emotional maturity. They are made very uneasy by what they see as the curiously miserable or scowling faces of Westerners.
This doesn’t mean Thais don’t have the same sorrows and sensitivities as the rest of us. If you take an interest in the language, you will hear plenty of hope and heartbreak in the words of ‘luuk thung’ songs, for example, the haunting indigenous popular music that started life as the music of the displaced. But you won’t see any pain on the beautifully smiling face of the singer. When they constantly tell you not to “think too much” about your problems, behind that ear-to-ear beam they have the same awareness of the wishful impossibility of this as anyone else.
